Make a list of how many threads there are about the GB Update, how many threads where people ask if they will lose root, how many threads there are where people have the white screen of death and how many where people ask what is the best rom, just for the hell of it, then I decided smashing myself in the face with a brick would be more interesting........
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
yea every ota - leak the dev section turns in to spam city ....
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
Lol..

Reminds me of the thread I started when 2.1 was released for the Hero. It got ridiculous with all the threads about rooting the OTA.

This is the thread I started

there has to be a work around, I will keep my eyes open and report back. :rolleyes:

[Desire HD General] secany:
Hi all,

I've been in a trouble that never been before. And after several tries, lots of google, I have to ask for help :(

I've got a Desire HD locked to Softbank Japan (001HT) comes with v2.37.726.2 with S-ON and can NOT access to any menu except emergency call.

So I can't enable USB Debugging, can't flash to another version although I have goldcard already (Main version is older! problem).

Phone can go to recovery, fastboot can see phone, but ADB NOT.

Tried all mode recovery, hboot usb, normal mode (only emergency call) and HTC original upgrade tools can't connect to phone as well.

So, the situation is: can't enable USB Debugging, phone not allow to flash to any older version, can't ADB. ONLY HBoot usb fastboot can see phone.

Anyone have experience with this before?

Willing to donated some $$$ if can help me out.

Thank you :)
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
You cannot downgrade that build, because HTC added some new security measures. Sorry, but you are stuck before someone finds a new way to downgrade.
[Desire HD General] secany:
That's sad :( Any chances to flash to higher version or whatever so at least I can use the phone as a PDA?
[Desire HD General] secany:
Just to give it a bump.

Any way to by pass that emergency call only so I can use it as a PDA?
[Desire HD General] secany:
Found those:

PD98IMG_Ace_Gingerbread_S_Orange_ES_2.37.75.8_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_194089_signed

and some TMO_UK TMO_AT with 2.37.11x.x

will give them a try
[Desire HD General] secany:
Update:

PD98IMG_Ace_Gingerbread_S_TMO_UK_2.37.110.5_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_189654_signed

This file works. Although there is no solution to downgrade 2.37, but at least it can by pass that stupid emergency dial only and allow to input unlock code / or use it as a PDA :)
[Desire HD General] kiwiandy:
What did you do to get into this trouble?

I was thinking of trying to downgrade my Softbank 001HT so I can root it again.. but maybe not if this is the result??
[Desire HD General] SQ3.0dotJP:
my phone just came back from repair with this version replacing my root. is there a fix yet?
[Desire HD General] sathish.sa:
Please give me the link

Hello,

please give me the link for this dowload , i want to load and want to unlock

Thanks'
[Desire HD General] Grant Barker:
Do you have a SoftBank 001HT?

Settings - System - About Phone:

What build is it, Kernel etc. ?
[Desire HD General] tudo:
Hello!

This Japanese phone need special way to enter the Airplane mode without the SIM card. I translate from a Japanese site:

1. Slide down to enter Emergency call interface.

2. Put and hold the Power button for few seconds, a dialog will appear, select Airplane mode

3. Touch the Home button

4. Now you can use the phone, change the settings, root, and unlock it :-)
[Desire HD General] Yalishanda:
Hi,

@Tudo: Thanks for the info.

Question: I put my phone into airplane mode and was able to access a screen where I could read "Sim network subset unlock pin".

So I got an HTC unlock code from a trusted website. After I input the code, it said: "Invalid password"; and my phone still is sim-locked. Am I doing something wrong? Does "sim network subset unlock pin" mean the same as "sim unlock code"? I'm lost here...

Hope someone can advise me...;-)
[HTC EVO 3D] bobdude5:
The orange/goldish/yellow one i got from HTC world site, the Red one is the one we know and love, and the black one is from HTCdev.com

I like the black one
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Lol, this is in my post too. I tweeted HTC about that. They're just backdoors, so hopefully I can snag a all black.
[HTC EVO 3D] Lex360:
yeah i also noticed tht the second i saw it.... i thought red was sprint and gold was the ww gsm version... now what is up with this black 1...? pls let us know if htc tweets back ^^
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
will do.

10char.
[HTC EVO 3D] dkotoric:
man I hope we can get the all black, that was my only complaint about the evo 3d on sprint, the ugly ass red ring. If I can at least order a all black back cover. I'll be good to go.
[HTC EVO 3D] No1ustad:
you may just be able to use some RIT dye to make the ring color black depending on the material.
[HTC EVO 3D] mayfield103:
Somebody will sell them on Amazon for cheap
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Hope so.
[HTC EVO 3D] mypd1991:
I just noticed that on the all black dev phone there shutter/ camera button isn't there or is different from the other 3d's, so is the 2d/3d toggle switch
[HTC EVO 3D] Emmexx:
The camera lenses are different as well. One is yellow/gold and the other is gray/black. Those two details combined might mean they did a redesign into this new look. I like it, personally.
[HTC EVO 3D] mario182005:
What happened to the kickstand?
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:

[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
I want a blue ring :)

HTC EVO = my best friend
[HTC EVO 3D] sidepart:
I don't think it was ever in the design...unfortunately. Mine EVO 4G though hasn't ever had any problems with it's kickstand. I rather enjoy being able to prop it up and watch a movie on the airplane or wherever. It even jams nicely into the trim seam in my car...so I don't need a mount.
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
The black and red looks better, imo. Too bad it's not red with black trim. That would be beast.
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
I like the all black :)

+1 for all black; very nice.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
I think thy want to keep the red though. The red seems to be the Evo color. Except the Shift is blue? I think black cover will be an optional accessory.

From my soon to be Evo 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] lafester:
the incredible has a red speaker grill and red camera ring.

has nothing to do with evo.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Yea HTC sometimes likes to keep the red on recent phones. On my hero they didn't because HTC wasnt as dominate as they are now.

[LG Optimus 2x] Cloudstrife:
Just wondering if there is a lot of people here that have had the iPhone prior til an android device. How do you like the transition?

I have had the O2X for a month and i can say that i really miss my iPhone :( So much more smooth, fast, battery life... And if anything goes wrong you have the iTunes backup so you dont need to be an expert til reflash with NVflash and you dont loose all your apps and settings...
[LG Optimus 2x] lombas:
I'm using a Motorola Milestone/Droid, and I really don't miss my iPhone 3G. The thing was horribly slow. Zero multi-tasking. Screen resolution was very low compared. Hardware wise, it was a real improvement. I'm running at 1GHz now with CM7.

In the software front, I really like, and prefer, how Android handle things. Apple is too control freak. I want emulator and ****!

But I have to say that the lack of proper backup in Android is really lame. iTunes can be really slow, but at least it does a proper sync and backup.

There is absolutely nothing like it in the Android world. Google has to improve its game!
[LG Optimus 2x] mariusdroid:
Yes i do miss my 3gs apps on android are really ugly android has a lot of problems but,wanted a bigger screan so here i am using noveka rom 2.2 with honeycomb theme and have android only for

1 month flashed like 30 different roms :) but if iphone 5 or 4s what ever will change the boring home screen im going back. On android maybee on ice cream sandwitch sorry for my english but im romanian
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Simple

1.Root

2.CWM

3.Nandroid backup of your stock rom

4.Titanium Backup for all ya Apps

If anything goes wrong follow the NvFlash Thread, there are many of people willing to help if you get stuck.

Put ya music on ya sd card and you will never loose it no need to sync

SIMPLE :-)

I have never had an Iphone and will NEVER get one Android is the way forward
[LG Optimus 2x] Acti666:
Used to have a 3g, and i hated it.

I love the openness of android, and on the hardware side the O2x just blows all the iphones away.

Whar ROM are you using? Since my O2x is way faster than my old iphone, and my buddy's iphone4
[LG Optimus 2x] velbaek:
I just bought an iPhone again, even though this phone has great potentiel. It just lack the commitment of LG. I tired of trying out new roms every second day, to get it running as it should from the start. It's a great piece of hardware, but the hardware is only as good as the software running it.... Goodbye LG Mobile it was a laggy experience knowing ya ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] nk7600:
Thats one thing I will never buy and that is a IPhone. Don't like Apple due to there bringing old tech out and telling everyone its new. I mean come on Facetime, Video calling is years old but because Apple did it. Its AMAZING and been invented by aliens from a future race!.

The IPhone could have a 8 core CPU running at 3GHZ each, but will never give Apple my money knowing that there laughing at all the sheep jumping on the band wangon of every Apple product that ever gets released with the letter I in front.

There OS is closed and controlled. Android isn't the best OS about but it has Openness, yes that is a plus and a negative but I would rather buy a fone that is MINE rather than feeling that Apple have control over what I can and can't do.

I will give credit to Apple though because if it wasnt for them, we wouldnt be where we are now with technology. Also, Apple are good with updates but for me personally...

I would rather buy a £10 basic fone than a IPhone.

Google arent perfect as there just as bad because they want to make money.. The difference is, how they promote and allow different manufacturers to build upon there platform.

All Apple want to do is FORCE everyone Developers and Customers alike. Its a shame people don't see things like this and think everything Apple do is great. The IPhone 5 could have a 500mhz single processor and everyone will say its the best fone out there. With Apple announcing a game that looks like Nokias Snake and telling everyone its a brand new game.

Android is about CHOICE....

Apple is about CONTROL....

Just my personal opinion and understand its not what every thinks lol.
[LG Optimus 2x] mariusdroid:
I can see that u never had an iphone iphone is not about control for that is cydia:) like rooting on android .facetime i have seen people use it to talk but a normal videocall nobody used it why? Becouse its **** compared to face time i used it and never used a video call whay again? Becouse its **** im a proud owner of lg optimus 2x but apple is light years away
[LG Optimus 2x] Foetsie:
Exchange it for an iPhone then you freaking whino.

Useless to open a thread for every brainfart of yours...
[LG Optimus 2x] mariusdroid:
Nop gone keep it :)) starting to like it
[LG Optimus 2x] velbaek:
I would say, that i'm not an apple fan boy, it was just the phone i had before the O2X, and i was quite satisfied with it. The o2x was my first android phone, and i do like the google platform. For me, it was more the lg software provided with the phone, that made me go back. I know there are heaps of custom roms, and i've tried alot, but it always, seemed to cause some other problem, batterydrain/or just poor batterylife/reboots. And with cm7 which has become pretty stable, i still experienced the sound bug, and i use my phone as mp3 player aswell, so it got pretty annoying. I dunno if i'm gonna keep the o2x, I might, just to see what will be provided for it, in the next couple of months. The hardware inside the phone, is quite awesome, it's just sad that LG doesn't know how to use it, but they might end up getting back in the game.
[LG Optimus 2x] peacekeeper05:
^

its your first android phone and yet your speaking like you know how other android phones perform. you're telling us that it's Lg's fault that you are not enjoying your android phone but you haven't tried androids from Htc, samsung, motorola, and SE, im not an LG fanboy but this is my 2nd phone from them and so far im very pleased. I've been using lots of android phone and my O2x is by far the best and the smoothest. battery life is just the same as my previous galaxy S but 3x better than my desire HD.

i did have an iphone 3GS but the restrictions and the boring and inefficient UI brought me to android. and i hate i-tunes. i hat steve jobs pushing me to use -itunes like im some kind of illiterate uneducated old man. and im 22 years old. :)

why can't i just use my 3Gs just like any other storage device. drag and drop into a folder and then bam!
[LG Optimus 2x] dombera:
I don`t miss my iphone 3gs at all!

Love my o2x as it is. I would not trade my o2x for iphone 4 even for iphone 5 when it comes!

My wife just switched from iphone 4 to galaxy s2 and she loves it as well.

Simpler to use, drag and drop music, backups, possibilities, great apps as well, amazing support from devs, much more customisable, fun to use and great deal of learning about linux if you are into modding. You can do crazy **** with it as well: runs nmap, metasploit, backtrack 5 and so on...
[LG Optimus 2x] eniux:
I had an iphone 3g / 4 before this. I switched to this phone and i sold both the iphones.

Reasons why i like android more than ios:

- Itunes sucks! Seriously, i hate that program so much.

- widgets

- downpullable status bar ( and dont come up with sbsettings, because thats not part of ios)

- theming

- custom roms which actually add new features to your phone

- google synch, i love being able to nvflash this phone to 0 and install a custom rom afterwhich you just sign up with the google account and all the contacts and applications are back. Again, F#ck i tunes.

- iphone feels small,really small.

Things i like about iphone:

- They work 100% out of the box

- All software is/feels the same

- research has shown that people with an iphone have more sex than people without one. Works out well for me, i just say mine is better than the iphone ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] peacekeeper05:
yep. the widget is a big + factor to me.

i hate clicking apps just to see my damn calendar and appointments...

i had more *** when i began using my O2x :0
[LG Optimus 2x] eniux:
Thats because you can actually see when your almost late for appointments :p
[LG Optimus 2x] velbaek:
Well i'm a android noob then;) Well my experience is that the lg launcher is pretty laggy, compared to what i expected from lg 2xspeed which it's called in some countries. And yeah you can install other launchers, but for me, a android noob, I would have expected the first hand experience to be alot better. I'm not agains android, i quite like the openess and the widgets. But for me the iphone forfill my needs more at the time being. But it seems that when the word iphone is writen, ppl go "bolistic". I'm not for or against the different platforms, that's why i also said, that i might keep the lg2x to see what it brings in the future, cause i like it, but i'm just disappointed with the software lg has provided. And yes i find it poor software, since for me, out of the box experience means alot, and that feeling didn't satisfy me at all. But that is just my oppinion!!! I didn't mean to start an apple/android war, since i like both platforms.
[LG Optimus 2x] Acti666:
You didn't expect a android vs iphone war when you opened this thread? you're right, go back to your simple Iphone.
[LG Optimus 2x] velbaek:
I didn't start this thread
[LG Optimus 2x] kite86:
I did try iphone 4 before switching to android.

But damn it, Apple has got a really big plus on his side, i mean iOS just works. You just click and it works!

Look at the crappy thing that LG did, they almost copyed everything to apple, but they didn't learn that power is nothing without control. I personally cry when i see the shietty UI they implemented that's capable to make a Dual-Core lag lol.

I will just wait iphone 4s or 5 whatever is called to go back to Apple. I just gave back my iphone 4 cuz of the antenna-gate.
[LG Optimus 2x] MadCobbler:
I have to agree that iOS just seems to work and it is quite simple to use, but having said that it is so closed and so hard to customise that it makes me not want one.

I just love messing about with my O2X changing roms and themes and making it look like I want it too, which is something you just can't do with an iPhone, yeah you can jailbreak it and install someone else's theme, but I find that it's never quite how you would like it to look....

But I would also say that android is more for people who like to mess with their phones and iPhones are for people who don't. Just my opinion....
[LG Optimus 2x] libehv:
I had i4 before o2x and well I am bloody relieved!

the i4 worked, when you wanted to read a book, make a phone call or send a text message, but it lacked the functionalities I had even on my winmo device or s60 which I got so used to - such as an usable file system, auto profiles and the necessary information on my desktop rather than having lots of fancy icons

also the itunes was a burden

what I hated the most was the logics in iOS

LG home launcher lags, but free alternatives, with lot more functionalities are working butter smooth

only software which I really miss is videostream, where I could make my home PC as a media server and stream over 3g/wifi all my videos. Home PC encoded the videos into a quality which I wanted on the fly.
[LG Optimus 2x] spot_1337:
Smartshare :)

And to everyone that is experiencing lag, install launcher pro and opera mobile. If you have rooted your phone also install adfree. Lag gone problem solved

[LG Optimus 2x] monkeytown:
i´d trade my LG for an iphone ANY DAY
[LG Optimus 2x] mike-o2:
You can't compare the two OS and say - apple is smoother.

First, if you set up the phone properly you get the same smoothness you get with the iP4 since Nexus One or before that.

Second - Android is running multiple homescreens, notification bar, multiple apps at a time, widgets and the app drawer.

iOS basically consists of an app drawer, period.

With Android you can go and write your own launcher app which only consists of an app drawer - boo hoo you are blazing fast. But who would want such a featureless ****?

Its like comparing a S class Mercedes to a motorized trishaw - sure the Mercedes uses more gasoline per mile.
[LG Optimus 2x] edangel:
i really miss my iphone 4!dunno why but i need it right now!

i have LG optimus 2x and i had an HD2 and samsung galaxy s..and iphone 4 was the best experience i had!really smooth and simple after jb..battery was awsome!gaming experience was cool and funny..!i dont mind to use itunes,i know iphone4 it has some sh*ts but its a great device and its doing its job really well!i miss the feature of skype video calling!android does not have skype video calling..never mind!

Sorry LG optimus 2x..great device but i thought i will fell in love with you but i will go back on iphone 4 maybe this week :cool::cool::cool:
[LG Optimus 2x] noobletsausecakebbq:
iPhone ppl aren't dumb either. They buy a device from apple and say goodbye to them on their way home to jailbreak it. At least thats what I did.
[LG Optimus 2x] somemadcaaant:
Hmm why buy an expensive device with old lacking hardware if your going to change the software dramatically to mimic Android straight away anyways?

Makes as much sense as buying the motorized trishaw, logically better off buying an Android device that has all the better hardware features out of the box, as you did when you bought the LG O2X 8)

I know each to their own etc.

[Fascinate General] sfournie:
So I do a lot of reading on this forum but rarely post.

Last night, my phone fell out of my hands while I was sitting outside the hottub and went right into it. It was like how something falls to the bottom of the ocean in a movie. I got it out right away dried it off, took out the battery and sd card and looked at it.

It seemed that no water got into the system at all. The phone works just as it did when before the dive. The only thing that is touchy is the charger now, but oh well.

Samsung ftw
[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
My friend dropped his Incredible in tea. He thought the same thing, but now, the phone reboots itself when it gets warm at all, and if it gets cold, the touchscreen becomes unresponsive. It was stupid to turn it back on. You should have immediately stuck it in dry rice and never turned it on, as that can prevent damage from happening.
[Fascinate General] AlexDeGruven:
Yeah, regardless of manufacturer/model, never turn a dunked phone on until you're 100% sure it's as dry as you can possibly get it.

Pull the battery and SD card, then shove the whole mess into a bag of white rice for AT LEAST 24 hours, more if you can. The longer it sits in the rice with no power, the more likely it is to survive the dunking.
[Fascinate General] deaffob:
Nah dehumidifier is better lol
[Fascinate General] dw77x:
Anyone know of any cell phone shops that have a wet phone recovery service?

I would place the phone inside a small pressure vessel and pull a deep vacuum for 15-20 mins (or until I archived 1000µm). Then break the vacuum with dry nitrogen. Repeat 3x's.

This is the method for pulling moisture out of refrigeration systems and it does work well.

I would think a small phone shop could easily get $50 a pop to save someones phone.

Hope yours stays happy! good luck
[Fascinate General] sageDieu:
Hair dryer.

Sent from my CM7 SCH-i500
[Fascinate General] bitz_dv:
I would worry about the screen in a vacuum.

If it were my phone though, I would completely disassemble it and make sure I got all of the water out that way, maybe hit it with some 99% isypropal to help get any water out from under chips and in tight places, and let it dry for a few days in silica beads.
[Fascinate General] xmrbonesx:
A hairdryer is a horrible idea. It can't pull the water out. On the contrary, it's more likely to force the water into worse places.
