[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajairola:
Not refurbished but old/different

I have received a replacement (unlocked version so they send a new one) from Dell in past month and it was made in October as well (the back cover didn't fit until I used a knife to open the gap on the latch). I think these are ones that were not produced with the same materials as most other Streaks(and Dell probably knew it) I'm thinking these might have a different LCD causing the fit and finish of the device to be off. I've had 3 Streaks now and My first one was an older one(September or October date) and the screen was probably the best of the three until its contrast got messed up. My second one was a newer one (January date) and its screen was kinda yellowish compared to my first one. My third one(current one was built 10/06/2010) and its screen looks like the first one with very bright whites. Out of the 3 the second felt a little more solid and the battery cover was very easy to install, on 1 and 3 the battery cover was/is somewhat cumbersome to put on. I believe Dell switched LCD's on the streak 2 or 3 times causing the difference in image quality and fit and finish of the device. Also as of May 4 the the Streak was discontinued so your going to get whatever they have on hand. So to summarize your device probably isn't used but its fit and finish is quite right, Also remember your device may seem used because it was taken out of the box to be upgraded by dell technicians(seeing as Froyo wasn't released for the Streak until December).
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bookwalk:
I had no idea they were discontinuing the Streak--is that the 5 inch AND the 7 inch. Why is that? Is it being replaced by something else?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] streakflyer:
Dell road map for the streak line is to launch a new streak 5 code named "Opus One" Q1 2012, dell could be playing it smart and slowing down the production of the 5" hybrid but doesn't make much sense to stop all making of the device isn't their that promotion deal going on in the states " buy a new computer over 600 bucks add a streak 5 for a 100" thing still going on, sucks they screwed you over like that, thats bad business practice, good thing I got mine made to order took more then a month for the dam thing though not unlocked thought stuck with rogers canada
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdanbratu:
Is it possible? I just take the apk and install it as a standalone app?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samicemalone:
I don't think this would work as it may require some sense components.

I would prefer to use the HTC Dialer myself instead of Gingerbread's default.

You should check out Go Dialer and Go Contacts. They are the closest apps I have found to the sense functionality
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunnybash:
TouchPal dialer provides similar function
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
As far as using HTC apps on AOSP, it's a no go. HTC use their own framework so you would have to get all the libs and try to port it. Big ask and just something someone won't do. Prob because there are a lot of Sense roms out there.

You could try and flash MIUI's.dialer. That's pretty close to HTC'S version.

Swyped...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrrh:
Another possibility would be to try a desensed Sense-ROM like Leedroid (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=768703) and after that reinstall rosie.apk

[HTC Inspire 4G] eramming:
My screen just went out. Everything us black. It rings so its alive though. Question is that since I flashed coredroid on it should I try for a warranty replacement? I know the warranty is void but I just got this phone a week ago as a replacement for the original phone. Can they charge me once they get it back and figure out it was customized?
[HTC Inspire 4G] marsdta:
If you pull the battery, then try to go into hboot does anything happens?
[HTC Inspire 4G] eramming:
Screen is dead. Pulled the battery. Nothing. Tried to get into recovery.black screen. funny thing is it will ring when you call it. It also gets texts and email notifications. Just can't read them! Lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] marsdta:
I doubt they would check. Especially if you got it from att, they will just replace it as its within the 30day window. Since only the screen is dead you could try and getting it back to stock with the ace hack kit if you wanted to try that
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
What I realized from Captivate's forums some time back:

AT&T would replace it, and send it to Samsung. And IF Sansungs checks and realizes foul play, u would be slapped a $600 bill from AT&T.

Not sure if the same holds good here too.
[HD2 General] SpoocyMan:
Hi, i'm now using rafdroid hd 4.0.2 at my eu-leo and want to cange rom.

Is there some suggestions for a new rom?

What do you use?

Thx xda for this forum :-)
[HD2 General] SpoocyMan:
Thx,

i need a sens rom, and it must be stable. and fast is always good :-)
[HD2 General] digiholic:
I've had no luck with Sense ROMs so far. Not fast enough for the added eye candy. Been a long time CM user and finally tried MIUI yesterday morning. OMG! :eek: Within two hours I became a diehard MIUI fanboy. Been hammering it ever since and it's blowing me away. More functionality than CM, same level of zippy performance, but much better eye candy. It have yet to find one thing I don't like and it keeps amazing me as I stumble upon new feature after new feature. I don't think I can go back to any other ROM now.
[HD2 General] digiholic:
MIUI needs a 120mb CWM so it's low profile like CM. Both good for EU owners. Unlike that damn 400mb for Sense.
[HD2 General] criszz:
ginger MIUI have no fm radio.
[HD2 General] digiholic:
One of it's few lacking features... true. Always forget about that since I listen to mp3, podcasts, and internet radio. FM radio pretty much unnecessary here in the states with the other alternatives.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
I'm also on miui but I installed launcher pro because I didn't like the iphone like launcher. you should try it. the roms are very smooth and fast. i'm using the ndt one and won't go back unless the gingersense roms are working without bugs.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
sure but i think it won't work on gingerbread when none of the roms have included it.

and well, honeycomb has the highest build number but it's for tablets.... just use 2.3.4
[HD2 General] digiholic:
+1 to both posts. Don't use the honeycomb version. The one in my sig is solid. No force closes yet and smooth. I run everything at once and no issues.
[HD2 General] omarcos:
As mentioned above, hypderdroid cm7 is one i recommend as well, it is very fast. You will need cwm installed thought but its worth it. Here give it a try http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=769026

Does the XTC Clip work on the HTC Sensation, has anyone tried it or heard reports of it working or not, I am due to get one on Friday and don't really want to waste my money if it doesn't work yet to s-off the Sensation, thanks.

i dont believe so but i havnt got my sensation to try it on the developer hasnt updated it yet

Apparently, he can't update it to unlock the phone. We not, we don't know.

[HTC Sensation] ouioui01:
We're waiting...Thanks for your feedback!
[HTC Sensation] borce_razor:
Yes it supports now HTC Sensation, any hboot version
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Yes we know that the software had been updated to support the Sensation, BUT DOES it unlock the Sensation? Have you successfully unlocked using the XTC clip?
[HTC Sensation] Moleculinary:
ordered one too !!
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
This been confirmed by who? And any screen shots? If it's true, I will order a PayG one!
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
So far only seen it confirmed that the XTC Clip software has been updated to support the Sensation, but no confirmatio0n as yet that anyone has successfully unlocked yet using it.
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Cool. Raskal did mention last night he had it, would be nice to find someone with a full XTC Clip (not PayG) who can test it.

I can borrow one, but I would need to pay for it sadly.

With the phone S-OFF, would it be worth flash to the ENG H-BOOT? Or not really worth it? Any benefits to having an ENG H-BOOT?
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:

[HTC Sensation] xboarder56:
do flash eng hboot becuase if you do mess up the phone it is easir to fix and flash

(flash the eng-hboot)
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Can you confirm that it is working? All the posts I've seen over at Phone Tools still show users struggling to get it to work and Raskal saying he will look into the problem. I haven't seen anyone confirming that it works.
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
so do we all need xtc clip to unlock the phone or could we use dumbed systemfiles from phones which are unlocked and flash them to get it unlocked ??
[HTC Sensation] giorgisp:
In order to flash the ENG HBOOT we have here, the devs need to find a way to bypass or remove the eMMC protection.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kitsunisan:
For some reason, my default G-mail account won't let me download any apps on any rom I try. On my Glacier, I've tried Virtuous Fusion, Royal Glacier, CM 7 and Royal Panache, none of them will let my Gmail account download anything, I get "Download was unsuccessful, please try again". If I log in with a different Gmail account, I can download anything, no problems at all. I've done full wipes and formats between every rom and unchecked the "backup my settings" option every time. I'm getting the same error on my G-Tablet as well, when two days ago I had no issues at all with it running CM7. Any idea why my Gmail account might be having issues?

Just did a search, which I should have started with, and see that this isn't the first time someone has had this issue, but so far no one has figured out what exactly is causing it. I'm having the issue on two different android devices, and I'm pretty sure I'll have the same on my Nexus One, so I'm positive it isn't an issue with my device. It has to be a market issue.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lytnus:
Hiya,

Previous posts have already mentioned that the keyboard dock battery discharges if the hinge is left in the open position, despite not having a tablet attached (which I am assuming is why my dock seems to run out of battery rather quickly sometimes).

I was just wondering; has anyone noticed the battery life of their transformer decrease when the keyboard is attached and out of battery, as opposed to when the dock is not attached. If I leave the transformer on its own on standby for several hours, the drain only seems to be say 1% every 1.5-2 hours, whereas with the keyboard dock attached the drain on standby seems more like 2-3% an hour or more.

I assume this is because the dock is always drawing power? Does anyone else notice a similar drain?

James,
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jojobou:
Yes, i also noticed this ...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mug2k:

I hope a firmware upgrade improves this :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lg777:
I have noticed this as well. I hope they fix this cause I want to have my tablet docked more often.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
The dock has to have power to work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thorpe24:
Yeah but if your not using it it shouldn't drain anywhere near as much battery as it is.

I.e.like if its closed.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
With the Tablet switched off and docked the dock still uses loads of power. Very odd.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M@rtin:
It defeats the object of having the dock for extra battery life - with the dock attached i get less standby time than without it, which is crazy! I wish they would sort out these issues, until i can rely on it not to drain quickly its just a toy, not something i can depend on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fropirate:
I'm pretty sure it's been stated before that they are added a fix in a future update.

[Epic 4G General] kalel_293:
i installed google voice...integrated it with my sprint phone number...how can i temove it? id rather use vvm again...thanks
[Epic 4G General] dkechitkid:
With the standard google voice service you could do something like *38 to disable google voicemail.

However, this is not an option if you enabled sprint integration. You would first have to disable the sprint integration and then you'll have the option to remove google voicemail.

All this would have to be done from http://voice.google.com of course.
[Epic 4G General] kalel_293:
thanks for the reply...problem is..i deleted my gmail acct thinking it would get rid of google voice...any other way to do it?
[Epic 4G General] megabiteg:
I think that if you just removed it you "might" be able to re-enable it again.

another question, since i deleted my google acct, when i tried to redownload root explorer from the market, its asking me to buy it again (purchased a while back)...
[Epic 4G General] dkechitkid:
Not a good move my friend.

You can fill out a form and possibly get your account reactivated. Hopefully you deleted the account only recently. Otherwise you may have to talk with sprint tech support and there's only so much they can do.

Anyways, check out the link below:

Okay so I don't have a xoom but I have the g slate no forum for that right now so I'm posting this here. The free amazon app of the day is text plus and its better than google voice to text.

[Xoom General] gogol:
What is the difference between this app compare to kind like WhatsApp, Kik, PingChat?
[Xoom General] Rodriguez92:
Not sure what those apps do because I've never used them but this app gives you a phone number and allows you to text as if your tablet was a phone so its not I'm its text and it has a pop-up notification when you recieve a text. So basically it feels a lot like a native text application. Rather then an instant messaging client
[Xoom General] gogol:
So you can call that number from land line as well?
[Xoom General] bjarnia:
does this program send through your Google voice account?
[Xoom General] Rodriguez92:
No, it gives you a number and you text as if that was your actual tablet number.
[Xoom General] bjarnia:
meh.. useless in that case... hard enough for me to get my friends to test to my gv instead og my voice number... having a different number for my tablet sounds very confusing.
[Xoom General] Rodriguez92:
If your friends are that lazy I feel bad for them. It's really simple to add a contact to an existing one and text that number if you don't get a response from the phone number
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivasanti:
Hi guys purchased an SGS from Hong Kong, im in NZ, its on 2.1 and im desperate to get it to 2.2, is there anything i need to lookout for when upgrading?

If something happens and i need to revert back to stock do i need to use the HK firmware or can i use one local to my country?

Whats the best method to upgrade to 2.2, should i use a custom rom?

any help would be sweet, been reading alot but getting confused.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
You should search up a program called odin. Its a pc program that most people use to flash their phones. Its also very versatile, can flash 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 etc. Careful though, flashing the wrong settings may cause your phone to not boot. The guides on odin are pretty clear though.

Another thing to familiarize yourself with is clock work mod recovery. Its an app on your phone that can also be used to flash firmware or install applications - very useful.

Should something go wrong when flashing, there is a thread on xda called EZ base. Its a pre configured set of odin files that are very effective in restoring a phone in bad situations.

Youtube may be your friend to help you see how this type of thing works but nothing beats trying it yourself
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivasanti:
Thanks ive done heaps of reading, aware of both those programs, just worried about flashing the wrong rom!

Flashed roms on android before but all my phones have been from my country :D

will look for the EZ base thread as back up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kova4a:
Just check in your settings which version of Android is on your phone now, then go to samfirmware.com and check with which region your firmware coincides. There firmwares are generally split by continents, so all Asian firmwares should work for all Asian SGS but check to be sure coz your phone may have been imported
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0n1n69:
Hey all,

Everytime I root my 1.2 device with manual nooter 4.5.6 (haven't tried .18), I get one download out of the Android Market. After that the Market.apk disappears from the system/app directory and I can no longer download apps. The end result of this is that I'm pretty much hosed. I've tried putting SU File Manager on to sideload apps, but it can't installed BusyBox because of the market problem, so no luck with that. I've reproduced this issue at least half a dozen times, using CWR to delete all the user data, re-registering the stock install, and then rooting again.

At this point I'm staying stock until I feel confident I can download more than one app from the market on a rooted device.

So, has anyone else experience anything like this, and if so, is there a solution?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisnameissoclever:
I have this same problem. No solution yet.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingjet:
It may be related to a download directory bug which has been fixed. I updated to MN4.5.18 over 4.5.6. Everything worked well untill a recent update to 4.5.25. The market crashed again. This issue seems not solved yet. So I had to flash back 4.5.18.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjbelknap:
Same here - .18 works very well once you figure out you have to uninstall the apps that want to update and then reinstall clean to remove the chance of bootloops. I was considering doing a complete wipe again and flashing .25, but I've decided to stick it out with .18 until they get squared away.

Overall, MN4.5.18 kicks ass for all intents and purposes, and I'd suggest moving up to that.

hi there,

I'm new to this board and new to this kind of stuff. I got a new HTC Desire HD which is unlocked to fkin T-mobile. So I wanna unlock it, but if possible for free. And no, T-mobile does not give them for free, they charge me 15 GBP -.-

Is there any good tutorial that can help me out? And also, what does "rooting" a phone mean?

cheers
[Desire HD General] I'm TheQuest:
Hi Anti_simlock

I think you must mean it Locked to T-Mobil.

Root is what you might know as being or having Administrator [Permissions] on a M$ OS. [Microsoft Operating System]

So having Root lets you take control of the Rom which is a Android OS, and gives you the choice of which Rom you chose to install on your Device.

Here is a link to the main links about [Rooting your DHD] you should have a good read:-

DHD Development Sticky Roll-Up Thread

PS: Rooting a device can also give the added bonus of unlocking it. [for free]

Take Care
