[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
-GPS generally doesn't work for most people without doing a fix. Some people get lucky, but it's a known issue. If it doesn't work for you, do the GPS fix. You can find directions for this pretty much everywhere.

-CM7 is not Sense, it never will be. It comes with ADW Launcher, but you can download another launcher if you'd prefer. There are themes available to make it look like Sense, and some people use LauncherPro Plus since it has Sense-like widgets. If you want to use ADW or another launcher, Colorize Widget has some good scrollable widgets. But by default, CM7 looks entirely different than Sense.

-CM7 does not get rid of spell check, but the default keyboard may not have it. You can always download a different keyboard from the market, or if you like the HTC keyboard, download the HTC IME Mod - you can find it on xda. Just do a google search.

My advice: Do a nandroid backup and flash it. If you don't like it you can always restore from your backup. It'll be like nothing ever changed. If you decide you want something close to stock, try Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo or MikFroyo. They'll be more familiar to you, and they're good starting points.

Also, I understand that you're new to this, but you still need to figure it out for yourself. Getting snappy with people that try to help you (even if they're trying to help you help yourself) is not going to help you understand. The best way to learn is to just do it. Manually boot into recovery - don't use ROM Manager. Do your own nandroid backup, wipe everything, then flash. When it boots, you'll feel like you have a new phone. And if you don't like it, go back to recovery and restore. If you have any problems with flashing, you can always ask on xda. As long as you treat people with respect, you'll get help.

Good luck!

thanks

but when people read what i ask and totaly think i didnt do something like look at google or something like that i dont need them to tell me to do something i already did and got no help from

some people cant learn by themself because its confusing for them

im sorry i need a little more help then the average person

and about being polite i was a asked a question then i get a sarcastic answer

is it only ok for you for some people to be like that and not others? because let me tell you that was uncalled for....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
I didn't watch the whole video but most of it I did. That video is what you get with cm7. Like above said, you can have cm as a base and add any launcher you like.

[HTC Sensation] Firefall!:
I am about to buy a HTC Sensation. However, my provider (Swisscom, Switzerland) offers it only with Branding. Is there a way I can flash such a branded device with the original ROM from HTC? Is it available anywhere? Will I have problems because of the signed bootloader? Thanks in advandace for any help!
[HTC Sensation] madindehead:
Currently, the goldcard method doesn't seem to be working. That's the only way to flash an official ROM without having an unlocked bootloader.

So, currently, sadly no way to do it. Hopefully when HTC release an unlocked bootloader for it, we will see changes.
[HTC Sensation] Firefall!:
Do you know whether HTC is planning to do so at all? I heard they wanted to make future bootloaders unsigned, but will the Sensation get an "Update" or something like that to have it unsigned?
[HTC Sensation] Ghisy:
I asked HTC about how and when the bootloader will be unlocked and they just tweeted me back saying "Good question. More specific details will be shared soon."

So yeah... :/
[HTC Sensation] 3c:
Hello,

Got a HTC Sensation from Swisscom and I'm wondering the same, any news on this?

I tried an update found on the forum: version 1.35.401.1, tried to install and said 'wrong client id'... Didn't update.

Just sent a request to HTC customer support to know if I'll get the OTA... But I don't expect much from this.

If I can't unlock and root this phone I'm gonna get rid of it and will never get a HTC again, that's one sure thing. Already regret having bought it, should have waited for it to be unlocked first!
[HTC Sensation] Firefall!:
You'll have to wait for HTC to unlock the bootloader (or for AlphaRev to do that before HTC). Expect HTC do provide the full unlock in September.

PS. I bought it unbranded meanwhile.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zorbeg:
I'm having a problem with GPS, locking takes too long and accuracy is never less than 48 M. does not matter if I enable "use wireless networks" or not

Problem existed on 6.1 ROM which is official release from cyanogenmod, now I'm running 7 and still have this issue.

Just after I reset phone GPS works fine, yesterday I tested newly flashed phone, locking speed was amazing, under 5 sec, accuracy 4-6 m, (was checking using GPS status). after few hours old problem returned. without GPS status I can't make navigation work.

I searched for this problem, and people seem to solve this issue with GPS status (reset/download AGPS data) or by setting APN type to "defaul,suppl" but it didn't work for me
[Nook Color General] Speeddymon:
Greetings all, I've been running 1.1 for a while with root while I waited for CM7 to get Bluetooth working. I had misplaced my nook charger and stopped watching threads due to real life, but now I've found it and had some time to get caught up on things.

I took the NC back to factory and upgraded to 1.2 without issues. Rooted using MN (using the currently latest version of MN, which is like 4.5.25 or something similar). Was able to root without issues, and started reinstalling all my apps. I'm not quite ready to get CM7 on there as I want a good backup of stock so I don't have to mess with dual booting and so that I can read using the native app rather than downloading the nook reader from the market.

Anyways, after I installed everything, I put CWM back on via rom manager, then rebooted it and immediately got bootlooped. Had to use cwm to wipe data and cache to get out of it.

So I started working my way through installing a few apps from the market at a time and eventually narrowed it down to being Adobe Air.

So after I got back in again, I started checking around in the OS and I noticed that AIR comes preinstalled (I checked the updater-script and it does not install air nor flash, but yet both are installed by default). I realized this after I saw that the option for AIR in the market is actually update instead of install, while the application list when I search for AIR shows free instead of update available.

Anyways, I'm about to see what happens after I use root uninstaller to remove it and then install it solely from the market, but I'm just curious if anyone else has encountered this? I have no problem updating gmail or maps from the market even though those are installed in system as well.

Thanks in advance

Edit: Removing AIR and flash did not cause bootloop upon reboot which is good news. No bootloop after installing AIR from market once I removed the default one.. Strange indeed. Must be an issue with checking the new one against the stock one's dalvik-cache entry. I installed a modified flash from the thunderbolt forums so I can get hulu in-browser on here, which works but the video is pretty horribly choppy, probably because I have it on Hi Def.. I'll try low def later.
[Nook Color General] discipled:
I had 1.1 and then also went back to stock and upgrade to 1.2 than manual nooter 4.6.16 and was working to get my IMDB to stop force closing and getting Netflix to stop playing at highspeed. Happend to stumble upon flash 10.3 in the market and it asked for upgrade, so I did so and when to rebook NC. Well it now is stuck in a loop even after clearing Cache and Dalvik Cache AND reloading manualnooter 4.6.16. It'll load up to the oscilating color Color dev logo but then restarts loading and gets stuck every time at Nook Co (only partially loads the O). Do I need to go back to stock, AGAIN, and reload the Manual nooter 4.6.16?
[Nook Color General] Speeddymon:
Clear data, in addition to cache and dalvik.
[Nook Color General] discipled:
You mean in mounts do a "format data" or do you mean clear data/restore to factory?
[Nook Color General] Speeddymon:
They do the same thing, so either will work

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanthakhil:
hi xda forum guys, i need a small suggestion regarding the screen protector. actually my htc hd2 touch response stopped working. i given it to a repair shop. he told me that he has to change the lcd somewhat like that for a price of $200 in australian currency. i got the mobile back but the screen is not original i can say because the original screen will be having some cross lines on it and dont need any screen protector. but the one on my mobile is not having any lines on it.so i am thinking that its not a original one. so i decided to purchase a screen protector. i went to ebay but i found alot so i cant decide which one is the good one.so someone please suggest me a good screen guard which acts like the original htc gorilla screen protector
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cenobite_:
I don't use any screen protector. Just make sure you don't put your phone with your keys in your pocket.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theblueflash:
i use the 'folix' brand. they are durable and cover the entire front panel including around the buttons. they also dont interfere with the touch screen responsiveness.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ambious:
I used many, but so far the best is Zagg Invisible Shield.

Got it form their website for far less than they sell in stores, shipped instantly almost, and it's incredibly durable, no peel-offs, bubbles, etc, and feels great. Highly recommended.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bshakil:
I know there are countless threads related to G2x Problems but none of the threads are focusing on isolating the reasons of Freezing Issue. I have recently upgraded my phone from Galaxy S Vibrant to G2x and i have to say i love the hardware and performance. Only Issue for me is random freezing.

After using the phone for 2 weeks and trying 3 roms

1. Stock

2. EB 1.04

3. Dark Sinister 1.1

I have come to a conclusion that kernel and rom is not the solution. At least not for me.

So i will try to solve the problem using hardware testing.

From my past 2 weeks experience.

1. Phone Freezes at night during charging

2. Phone Freezes when ever i turn off/on wifi and bluetooth and gps and Data (4g/3g) (Still have to figure out which of them is the cause. Cause i usually turn all off when i need to save battery).

Test Day 1

For Reason 1

I am using SetCpu and have changed Min from 216 to 312Mhz. I am trying this because i think very low cpu usage in standby for a very long period causes the phone to freeze. Its a Hunch i am not sure.

For Reason 2

I will keep wifi, Bluetooth and GPS off.

I will keep 4g/3g Data On all the time.

To My Surprise its been 16 hours no freeze. It includes charging at night. Lets see how long i can go without a freeze. Upon freezing i will make some changes.

Update 31/5/2011 (Test Day 2)

Ok its been more than 40 hours and not a single crash...

I removed the following possibilities as well....

It wont crash upon excessive usage.

Also Normal Heat up does not cause the crash.

As i have been playing Samurai II Vengeance all day long... Until I ended it. Several times charging along playing. I even played it on TV using HDMI. Not a single crash. I used to have around 3 crashes a day on stock rom when i unboxed my new G2x.

I also started using GPS from today. So lets see how it goes. I will update it every 24 hour.

Update 3/6/2011 (Test Day 5)

Ok i am considering Random Freezing On standby as solved because i havent had a single freeze at night after setting CPU Clock at 312 MHz using SetCPU. There are also other comments that back up my solution. I am considering this the solution of one problem.

2nd Issue of freezing while using cell phone apps is because of certain applications that are either buggy or not compatible with tegra Platform. For that i will start another thread with individual application testing for all apps that can cause the system to freeze or crash.

Please Discuss apps System Bloat-ware/User Apps that cause your G2x to Crash or Freeze in the following thread i created:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14399089

Thanks for all the feedback.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Luckily I dont get that issue, buy I think this is a good test :u
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Good point. I have not had these issues but i do have trinity kernel and minimum speed is 300

G2x with CM7 and trinity kernel
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kangxi:
All you have to do is be careful what apps you install. I've had the phone for over a month and the one time it rebooted or froze was when I used an app the phone didn't agree with.

I am almost certain that people are experiencing reboots and freezing because of the apps they have on their phone. Hopefully the update will solve the problem because it shouldn't be that way.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] garrychau:
In my opinion, the shut down has to do with temperature of the phone. As long as I keep the phone cool by not charging and multitask with other things, then my phone is fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
I used to think the same thing but the problem is my phone gets hot and works fine. I am almost positive it has something to do with an issue in the kernel that's being exposed by certain apps. My Xoom on release had reboots and SOD and it went away with app updates and removals. It also has Tegra 2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
Do you or @kangxi remember what Apps gave you issues?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
it has to be a driver issue, its virtually the only explanation for why devs have not hammered it out yet or even CM7 team for that matter... it has problems on pure AOSP which leaves drivers or overheating (unlikely)... LG has to come up with the fix because they know their drivers and hardware better than everyone else...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Well the obvious problem I see is that they are all based on the stock rom. Try using one build from AOSP or a CM variety.

I didn't stay stock long but I did have reboot using the leaked Gingerbread (which is what EB is built from). I don't follow it but one is based off the stock 2.2.2 rom and the other is based off the leaked 2.3.3 rom.

I had nothing but problems with the stock roms. Thus your problem I think. Move over to Bionic, CM7, Gigglebread, or something.

I tested my phone and I didn't have a reset in like 5 days (which then my battery died overnight because I forgot to plug it in). I usually crackflash the CM nightlies and haven't had any problems with reboots or any issues requiring a reboot (aside from the flashlight killing audio, but just don't use it).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
There are definitely two problems - software and the battery. I used to way more problems until I exchanged the battery for a new one and that solved most of my issues. The issues that remain are definitely software based.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bshakil:
Thanks for this information/ Changing the minimum speed didnt affect the battery life but it has survived two nights without crashing. So i am planning to keep it at 312Mhz min.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bshakil:
I Completely Agree with you. Some Applications do cause system crashes. But I have removed all the t-mobile bloatware and i only have few games and GPS apps. All games are from tegra zone. So I am sure they are supported.

For GPS App i am using Copilot and it didnt crash on me once.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
I just installed setcpu and set minimum to 312. I'm keeping everything else the same to see if this change has any difference. Will report back.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Looks like you are gaining progress. Sounds like keeping the processor revved up a little more does the trick.

It would be a simple fix for people to try that have reboot issues. I can't get mine to reboot, so unfortunately I cannot help you. My contribution was to resist from flashing for as long as possible to test how long I could get my "uptime" to. I got up to 127 hours when I passed out without charging it.

I'm running 20 hours now because I forgot to charge it again (seems to be my only problem, lol).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Looks like you may have fixed your rebooting issues. It sounds feasible that the clock speed could be causing it. I never had a reboot so I can't help you out but I can tell you that I have a profile under SETCPU that clocks it at 216 min and 216 max when the display is off and I don't have a problem. I wonder why the low clock speeds would only effect certain devices? Maybe it's certain apps that stay running in the background (since there poorly written) that require higher clock speeds than what the G2X gives at idle?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
I've definitely noticed that the G2X wakes up faster and smoother (fade in from screen off) when min is set to 312mhz that's for sure. if this is all it will take to stop the reboots, I'll be super happy because otherwise this phone is just amazing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Have you noticed any changes in battery usage? I haven't really played around with SETCPU much but can the clock speed be set lower and if it can, have you tried slightly lower settings than 312mhz?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
y are u guys using setcpu? and its def cuz the min is too low faux has his at 400 and no problems morfic also has his a little higher then what is it i think 216?? thats too low thats y setcpu isnt supported yet.....pimp my cpu
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kangxi:
Someone asked me a question earlier. Only app I had issues with was fring. Soon as I opened it and started playing around with it, phone rebooted.

I uninstalled and it never happened again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
well thats y it works for u, u cant overclock over a thousand mhz so in ur situation ur ok i guess it only applies for people running a custom kernel then setcpu doesnt work, then u would need pimp my cpu
