[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooster123:
Ok.

Am in office right now. So would go home and flash a different firmware. Will let you know if that works.

Also unrelated, the guide I read on Lifehacker suggested SuperOneClick for rooting the phone and installing a different ROM using ROM manager. So logically I don't have to unlock the bootloader right? Not that it would make a difference since the phone is anyway out of warranty. Was just wondering. Sorry if the query seems a tad noobish.

Cheers,
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooster123:
Nope. That didn't work. Rooted and flashed the latest Cyanogen Mod. The problem still persists. Sucks.

Have reverted to Stock ROM and Unrooted.

Any Help?

Cheers,
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Enable full rotation, and use the phone upside down?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
If you are having the same issue present on mulitple firmwares, I think it has to be the digitizer. Is there seriously no DOA warranty from the people you ordered it from? The seems like a bad company to deal with.

@rat haha... but it still doesn't solve his bad touchscreen... although he could at least type.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchn2:
if you have cyanogenmod installed, there is a test module (under dev tools in the app launcher) called pointer location, which can visualise the pointer as your finger touchs the screen. if your finger go over the region in question (lower half, i believe), you can see if the pointer has been misdirected to a wrong place, or if the finger touch has not been registered at all. may not be a cure, but at least you'll know what the issue is. hope it helps.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooster123:
Yes tried that. Got a mixed result. Horizontally swiping the screen from left to right on the non responsive area does not register anything. Swiping top to bottom slowly produces a small gap where the screen is not responding. However doing a fast swipe top to bottom does show I line even at the part where the screen is non responsive otherwise. Can't say what to make of it.

On the positive note, I had a word with the seller (on Amazon) about my current predicament. They told me that they could give me a refund/replacement if I were able to ship the product back to New Jersey. An insured package through Blue Dart wasn't however turning out to be a feasible proposition. So the seller has agreed to give me a part refund and let me keep the phone. The exact detail are still in negotiation. So lets see.

And finally, there is a feature in CyanogenMod which allows the top bar to be shifted to the bottom (for tablet owners basically). Enabling that option on my phone however shifts the keyboard a little up. Giving me full functionality (as the unresponsive part of the screen is not taken up by the keyboard anymore)

Now the only issue is while trying to type in the landscape mode with either the 'e' or the 'i' key not working (depending on whether you're holding the phone with the trackball on the left or the right)

So it's working fine for the past couple of days. Will be taking the phone to HTC here in India. They've given an initial quote of Rs. 500 (around $10) to replace the digitizer (labour only) provided I can procure the digitizer myself. A digitizer would cost me around $30-35 (including shipping). So a total repair job of around $40-50. Now lets see how much partial refund the folks at Amazon are willing to offer.

Since the phone is quite cheap (I got for $269 unlocked) doesn't make sense to send it back and incur a fortune on shipping alone.

Sorry for the long post. I'll try to post a screen shot of the 'Pointer Location' results.

Cheers,

Roy
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooster123:
Here are the screenshotsscreenshots

This one is moderate speed vertical Stokes. Notice how the colour changes as the pointer approaches non responsive area.

Tried to draw straight horizontal lines. Gets fuzzy in the non responsive area.

Fast vertical lines. Does not seem to be a problem here.

Any comments?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvspencer22:
If you woke up and found Samsung released gingerbread for vibrant and T-Mobile pushed it out to your phone, how would you use your phone differently?

Use GPS and Netflix doesn't count...

Just trying to figure out why people are up in arms again about updates.

Thanks to our all devs who have already brought 2.3 to us!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
Nothing different. I just want it.

When I got 2.2, felt the same as 2.1, except for the colorful icons in the settings menu.

I still wanted it though.

Gimmee gimmme 2.3 hurry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dttung80:
I can see the memory management of 2.3 is better than 2.2, include Copy, Paste functions and status bar icon more beautyful... waiting for Ice cream :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatherofthebride:
Lets be clear, looking forward to an os update doesn't equate to dissatisfaction with the devs. It only means your looking forward to the update. And I wouldn't be surprised if some of the devs are anxious either. After all, an update means new source. New source means new roms, new kernels, new life to a phone that many considered to be dead. And if out weren't for the life support provided by the devs, it would surely be dead.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonys2r:
gingerbread optimizes the hummingbird cpu, which would make the overall vibrant experience better.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
This is the best experience I had when I was running gingerbread. The memory management is really perfect unlike in froyo.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defconoi:
I'd take the GPS libs and copy.them to CyanogenMod :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan_Brutal:
I'd eat it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hd2life:
I would make a sandwich, an ice cream sandwich.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorddart:
Valid point though, is it ever enough? We were never guaranteed gingerbread and honestly i've run it and yes it is nicer than froyo but it is by no means worthy of throwing a fit or being pissy or grabbing pitch forks and torches over. Without devs our phone was a freaking embarrassment on 2.1 yes but 2.2 is smooth I dunno what is expected. We got jerked around pretty good last time. But it appears that they are stepping up with new phones. Unfortunately the vibrant may have to wait. It appears there is some change though we will see if it lasts. But seriously we gotta just see what happens no point in getting over pissed
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonys2r:
It doesn't matter what you think
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funeralthirst:
already running gingerbread, so for the most part i don't care. but i would probably flash some rounds of whatever roms come of it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshchn:
So if netflix works only on GB for Galaxy S phones, why OP excluded it as a valid reason to get GB update? Right now that is the only reason i want GB on my phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICosPhi:
I'd enjoy the improved battery life, major bug fixes such as sms being sent to random recipient, better memory management and security hotfixes.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
Damn you! Thats what I was gonna say:mad:

I guess honestly the one BIG thing I'd do is run around a show all my jealous friends and laugh at them since I had it and they don't.:D Officially that is
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
i'd make Ice Cream Sandwich with it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevec5375:
I heard a rumor that Gingerbread will include the ext4 file system. Is it true?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABCStore:

What's your source?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
No, you're talking about SGSII.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marvlet:
If I woke up tomorrow and gingerbread update was released, I would come on here an make a thread asking when the next update would be released and ***** and moan about how samsung and t-mobile are dragging their feet in releasing the next os update.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funeralthirst:
oh, you mean what people did when we got froyo?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marvlet:
Yup
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] degeneration:
I just want it to have it!

Although I haven't been *****ing, it's about time for a new phone for me any way, just over a year!?

Although I did carry the G1 from release until I got the Vibrant after pre-ordering it.

If there was GB I would wait until the GB roms were updated to support GPS so I could make sure to never miss a check-in on foursquare and then... I guess reset my battery left widget and watch it drain all day to see if it was better...

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stnight:
HI

Im kinda noob hen it comes to flashing android telephones. But yesterday i descided to try. sadly.

When i as rooting my X10i my usb port shut down.

Now my x10 wont turn on, wont connect to USB flash mode, when i tried to turn it on it vibrates like it should when i turn it on, then the sony ericsson in white on black background comes(stays there 4 a minute or so) then the screen turns black again.

I know this probably is my one fault and i f#"¤"# up big time... But hoping some off you guys maybe got some idees.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kieronw3:
Sounds like u need to use seus to get your phone back. Then try again.

Good job the x10 is almost brick proof.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaeljordam:
Maybe your sdcard is corrupted. Try to format in your PC.

Try another USB cable.

Hi Folks!

Now we have a lot of NAND ROMS and 2 loaders.

Is there any tutorial that explain how to convert a MAGLDR ROM in a cLK?

This is only to understand how they works and to improve my Android skills ;)

Many thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ph03n!x:
I would like to know this too - anyway without starting from the scratch? Or is it not possible because the ROM I might have installed is meant for Magldr?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] john_matrix:
Not from starting to scratch ;)

For example, I would like to convert this ROM (no need to data2ext and full stock Sense):

[31 DEC] gauner1986's HD-FI 0.3 (Desire HD based) [KERNEL = my own :)]

In same time, I would upgrade the kernel to RAFPIGNA 1.9OC in the package.

I have see in the cLK thread that we need to modify the boot.img but I don't know exactly what we need to do :confused:

Or in the same way, editing the official MIUI in order to make it "cLK compliant" :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
to update the kernel just download it and flash it via CWM
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] john_matrix:

Hi everyone. Dont know if this is right place to post this. Sorry about that

I'll be buying this phone in a few days. Is there any application to play DivX files on it? Coz its not there out of the box.

And is the playback quality good in the app?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Lovetz:
Try RockPlayer, attached version is for our processor. Playback is good, but don`t use too big resolution files. 576x320 works fine.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Bluffyone:
yes, u could use rock player or mobo player to play videos and yeah the playback quality is gud
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] princenoob:
MOBO player is the best for me. it plays divx videos smoothly. :)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
was a bit impatient so did what zip wanted to do manually

also zip would not have worked on my setup as i have multiple partiton and so sdcard for recovery is not sdcard for android in my case.

anyways home screen is good i liked it a lot......
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] spaarc:
So are you planning to use it as your theme for a while....

and i have a idea

since you are so good with scripting can you make a script with the emulator in android sdk to run on X10 as that would have a lot of scope in the future i guess
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
frankly speaking launcher pro is my default and i have it quite customized so no plan to switch as of now.... however if we have some custom drawers in this theme for example say instead of home some custome namee could be given and custom apps could be added then i might be interested

also i didn't got what you meant my scripting can you send in a PM if possible with all details what ever you want and i will see if i can help you on that.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] spaarc:
The mod can be flashed for cm7 as well but a theme for t-mobile is not available as I am still learning it but the theme can also be applied by going into the same place and the dell stage UI should work on both(still untested though)

The touchwiz may take a while as i dont have a computer currently....

[Epic 4G General] XtaC318:
Should be interesting here, should help with the dev's who want to port over sense to other devices.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/03/htc-announces-opensense-sdk-and-htcdev-offers-paradise-inside-i/
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Not at all. It pretty clearly says that the SDK is set up in such a way as to make it no easier than a straight up port when it comes to non-sense devices.
[Epic 4G General] daivik:
IMO, i don't like it, but I also really like it!

It's great that they're developing Sense, but for me it's too much of an Apple-like move, cutting it off from everyone else.

Android is about "open-source" and well this SDK thing, just locks you down to Sense. :/
[Epic 4G General] algorhythm:
Our phones come with TouchWiz, which I am pretty sure HTC phones cannot use.
[Epic 4G General] daivik:
Who are you referring to when you say "our"? And I'm not talking about a UI. I'm talking about the move to create a mini-market for only Sense UI things. Not the actual UI, of course, each manufacturer to their own UI, it's what gives them an edge over the other manufacturers making similar spec android phones.
[Epic 4G General] nadcicle:
It's been ported to sense phones already.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Why would they want it? It's not bad, just very okay. Sense is better but not amazing. MIUI FTW.
[Epic 4G General] nadcicle:
I thought the same thing being the owner of both the Evo and the Epic.

[HTC Inspire 4G] 19ant89:
Ok so I bought an HTC inspire 4G and it has hsdpa network and I'm normally getting 2.3 Mbs download. I went into the ATT store and the Samsung infuse uses utms and it was getting up to 5-7 Mbs download speed.

I read other forums that said hsdpa was suppose to be better. If so can anyone please explain it to me. I'm all about network speed and I wanted to know if I should just get the infuse or will the hsdpa improve later on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Hsdpa will get faster speeds once its turned on in your area. For example in Austin, Texas I get 6mb down with the inspire. The Infuse also has hsdpa. In some areas utms is faster. I'm a huge HTC fas so I will always choose HTC over other brands. If your leaning toward Samsung wait until the Galaxy S 2 comes out for ATT.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ranklepup:
Overall you will not feel much of a difference on the phone... you can have a nice and fast looking speedtest but the difference will be within seconds.
[HTC Inspire 4G] solrac8126:
agree on that
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
att stores also setup their own in store micro cells so it looks like they have phenomenal service when you try stuff out in stores.
