HTC and Sprint have to do something called "quality assurance" and "testing" before release to the general public. The audience they are releasing to is far less tolerant of the minor bugs and glitches that like 90% of the ROMs here have but that we tolerate because we want new features.
[EVO 4G Android Development] androidrookie84:
Im pretty sure our devs will cook us up a rom with the sprint ota kernel and 2.1 in it,I hope
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
I will !!!

Just downloaded it
[EVO 4G Android Development] issafram:
i thought my original post got the message across pretty well considering the thread title ""[OFFICIAL ROM] Sprint OTA Gingerbread 4.22.651.2UPDATE!!!""

but whatever
[EVO 4G Android Development] Beejis:
If you don't want what he gives out then don't flash it, get a different rooted rom or root the rom yourself. Your call.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bmxrider4444:
Girls, girls you're all pretty, let's just thank the man and move on, he will release it how he wants, and a stock ROM would be ideal, but if he doesn't release it that way, wait an hour for someone else to, now let's get back to the ROM and quit the bickering please.

P.s. not taking sides just sucks when threads get flooded with bickering, and mean no offense to anyone either, just trying to lighten the mood some, thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdmitchell13:
I second that!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dean_fx:
So disappointed with the update. This is froyo labeled with 2.3.3. I see no changes. The leaks have more than this OTA did.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougdascenzo:
FYI, I am not talking about the thread. Just removed a worthless argument with someone. Don't want anyone to think I meant "whatever" about the ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alammori:
+1 on this. And I think the only benefit of this rom is the kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
Why is everyone surprised that it was sense 1.0; im not shocked one bit. Did you really think they were going to include anything higher than 1.0 with the release of the 3D around the corner? Lets be serious....
[EVO 4G Android Development] bsbokc:
I'm not going to get into a silly pissing contest with you. The fact is I am right and I know it, and pretty much everyone else here will back me on it I am sure. I completely understood what you meant and why you said it. I just took offense to the way you said it. I will simply press the report button and move on since I don't want to see this become just another thread where it's 100 pages of flaming and 2 pages of dev work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
That and having native 2.3.3 drivers to use with AOSP ROMs.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rudyrude432:
Very true, disappointing, but true.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tbparker09:
sense

my roommate did the OTA. it is sense 1.0
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
what i've been saying the whole time....

Look, all this is going to do is give us something stable.

I'm holding off on the eVo 3D because, 1. I own nothing 3d capable. 2. I downgrade the camera, 3. its a minor bump up from my evo.

So this will just have to do until HTC steps up with some quad-core love.

hopefully christmas will be a god send for me :)

And the newer radios and other small pieces that will be useful elsewhere.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lrod0175:
Yes that's the excuse, but why r other phones getting more advance updates?

Give the public the opportunity to test the new releases and lets see how many users will choose to try them, isn't that what we do here?

Don't give me the sprint defender crap, I like sprint but their developers suck wind! Talked to htc, they said is not their call with carriers.

What they really doing is marketing, by appealing to new accounts with new phones on new software, and making current users sign up for 2 more years to get updated.

Lrod's evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1gr8papa:
What the f#$@....

Not only does this update not contain a Sense UI upgrade, the Swype is the same janky version from the leak. The word selection window is still overlapped by the copy/paste word selection tool. Come on, not that we aren't grateful, but throw us a gotdamn bone HTC/Sprint. At least our community devs (Virus, TMartin, Misfit...etc) will have us with aging Evo's right and soon with our well deserved Sense 2.1 or 3.0 goodness (wink wink)!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] RileyGrant:
Virus you want us to flash that from recovery or hboot?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigrob8181:
Using mikfroyo. Updated radio and see this:

Baseband 2.15.00.04.08

Kernel 2.6.32.17 #15

Sw 3.7.651.1

Did the flash update anything?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
Does anyone have the update.zip? I really need it for my work please! PM me the link if possible.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JMQUINT00:
OK wait is virus just rooting the ota and posting it or is he creating a whol rom from it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] NewZJ:
that link changed my radio only virus
[EVO 4G Android Development] dino1342:
HTC has launched HTCdev.com and it has all the sense sdk for devs to work with maybe they can do something with the site and get sense 3.0 working on our evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
Why would they give the "public" what they want lol? What country do you live in? The point of the matter is to get the "people" to shell out more money and get another year or 2 out if them. Why would they give us evo 3D features when its coming out in a few days? My upgrade is in August, if they would've included anything higher than 1.0 in this update I would have no reason to upgrade right? And I can tell if they did, I would use my evo all the way through this year instead of buying a new phone. Im speaking from a regular user pov not rooted, they're our numbers tripled.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
Doubt they will let that fly. pull some copyright bs
[EVO 4G Android Development] akilestar:
minor bump?

your entitled to our opinion but come on. dual core 1gb ram and finally internal memory.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigrob8181:
What radio are you showing now? Dont think mine changed...

Swyped from my EVO using XDA app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eman3316@optonline.net:
Most uniformed post ever! You obviously should not upgrade ever since you are clueless.
[EVO 4G Android Development] issafram:
"I am right and I know it" Yea sounds about right. When your done taking offense, i'll get off of the lollercoaster
[EVO 4G Android Development] NewZJ:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Beejis:
Question, and it may sound stupid, but would it be possible for just the kernel to be posted so that those with nova screens can flash the leaked version or any other variation of the 2.3 update?
[EVO 4G Android Development] teh roxxorz:
If you were already on the 'leaked' radio for .04.08, it wouldn't have changed, as that's the radio in the zip.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigrob8181:
Shouldnt the radio be 5.02 and the pri different?

Swyped from my EVO using XDA app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bmxrider4444:
Not stupid at all, there are quite a few of us hoping for a flashable kernel to be posted.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] JaeCee:
Hey y'all, I've been seeing a strange thing on my SGS2 recently with Words With Friends: It totally kills the battery.

I just recently wiped my phone and put in VillainRom 1.1 with CF-Root kernel and charged up my phone. I then randomly checked words with friends and played a few words.

Results:

In 4 minutes and a half, it pulled 43% total battery use from a total uptime of just under 40 minutes.

Anyone else seen this happening with WwF ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] brandenk0:
I've noticed Words with Friends taking up a lot of battery whenever I use it, so your not alone on this.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] warren2006:
Yes i've noticed it too. it uses 100% cpu in one of the 2 cores while the game is open.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mobilegalaxy:
You're definitely not alone and I tried the application on both of my phones (Captivate and S II) and all I can tell you is that words with friends drains the battery like mad.

Furthermore, the app hasn't been optimized for dual core processor handsets yet (as it is the case with most apps). When developers start optimizing their apps for dual core processors we should definitely see an increase in battery life as optimized apps can utilize the two cores more efficiently.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CanEpia:
Any fix for this yet? It's killing both mine and my wife's SgSII's, but my desire Z is fine.

Biggest priority for the wife is WwF so she's not happy about the battery usage! Lol
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
lol it's funny i played this with the gf yesterday and it killed my battery as well. i knew immediately it was the culprit :D

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordboy:
I installed MN 4.5.25 (thanks GabrialDestruir!!) after restoring to stock from AN on 1.1 and went to reload Weatherbug elite from my titanium backup. The reload failed and i went to the market to redownload it. It didn't show in the market. I followed the steps to reset the market and show all apps. That worked, but when i went to install it, the install failed saying it was missing libraries.

I searched the forums but haven't found any clues -- anyone else see this issue?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caesarg:
I'd be interested in this as well. I have tried numerous times to load it but no dice.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordboy:
installing MN 4.6.16 fixed the issue, now weatherbug works fine.

i was able to get it to install after applying a google maps fix, but it still wouldn't run. applying the new MN did the trick.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coachclass:
Hi,

I can't even write any files to my Tab 10.1. Am I missing something? I thought it would just show up as a USB drive, but it shows up as some kind of camera, and I can't write any files to the folder structure...

I've only had it for a few hours, but this is a surprise. Do other tablets do that?

HcMAX, how did you USB transfers to work? I know this is a newbie question and I should just do a more indepth search, but hopefully you can just chime in for me.

FWIW, I have yet to find an mkv,player combination that will not be choppy. I've resigned myself to using mp4's. Also...keep them under 2gbs...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galtom:
If you mkv (h.264) files are high profile you will not find one :-(.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
There are other ways to transfer ALL types of files to your Tab, like doing it over wifi. Go to the Market and grab Websharing (not free) or WifileExplorer (free) or any other you want, and follow the directions. You basically type in the I.P address of your tab into a web browser and transfer files that way.

Now as for playing said mkv files, try Moboplayer or just convert them to mp4. I assume you have Windows, look for "Handbrake", it's free and solid, or look for "Freemake" also free.

My personal anecdote, Tegra 2 has been a disappointment multimedia-wise. I took my 10.1 Tab back to Bestbuy the other day and got a Verizon Tab 7" off craigslist new-in-box for $200, couldn't pass it up. The PowerVR SGX gpu in the Tab 7" paired with "Mvideoplayer" puts video playing on the Tab 10.1 to shame.

I'm staying clear of any Tegra 2 SOC device with Nvidia gpu. The PowerVR SGX is still taking prisoners it seems.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaoropez:
I just would like to share that I have been able to transfer an .mkv using the normal windows Mpd or w/e transfer. as we know transfering .avi work, no problem, but trying to copy a .mkv crashes explorer for some stupid reason.

I had an mkv that i couldnt transfer and while i am sure a wifi transfer would work as suggested, it would be slower than just usb.

what i did is, through windows, take out the file extension, so my file was originally called movie.mkv, now its just called movie. I tried renaming it to movie.avi, still crashed it. now once the file no longer has a file extension, windows lets u transfer it, no questions asked. once on the device, use a file manager(stock one doesnt let you rename file extensions) to add the .mkv once its on the device. I used androzip, but i am sure others work.

Hope this helps people trying to transfer files to tab, yet windows explorer just crashes.

If any one know any other file managers that let you rename the file extension, please let me know, i am not really fond of androzips UI

thanks.

Problem with movies being to big to transfer fixed !!

If the movie is too big to transfer just split the movie in half with (HJsplit 3.0) software and transfer it over to your tablet :) use WIFI File explorer pro to transfer

works flawlessly with Samsung tab 10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monica66:
Usually, MKV does not supported by Samsung Tab since they only can support H.263, H.264, MPEG4, WMV, DivX videos. So converting MKV to mp4 is necessary. I ised Brorsoft Video Converter to deal with my videos. It works great. Download and have a try.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konker:
I don't know where to begin so I'll just list the problems I have been encountering why trying to flash a stock ROM into my TMO HD2.

Preloaded with Android Gingerbread 2.3+HSPL 2.08+Magldr 1.11

Stuck at 123456 Go Go Go

Digitizer cracked & removed

Tried flashing stock TMO 3.14 ROM to ascertain if it is lack of digitizer causing problem

Was able to perform Task 29 normally initially

Could not run 3.14 RUU successfully nor via SD card method with HSPL 2.08 intact. RUU stuck at 8% & SD method stuck at Radio forever

Upgraded HSPL to 3.03 successfully using HSPL 4

Still could not run 3.14 RUU; same as above

Rolled back to SPL 2.08.000 using HSPL 4

Started having problems with Task 29; could not complete properly

Tried MTTY (v.1.42) but could not format NAND

Upgraded to HSPL 2.08 using HSPL3

Still could not perform Task 29 successfully. Sometimes successful & other times not. Mostly met with limited success using SD card method & CustomRUU Task 29 met with numerous connection error (262, 266, 284)

.....

Now, managed to roll back to HSPL 2.08 after redoing SPL 2.08.0000 even though 'We hacked it' screen stayed on with HSPL3 tool 'Critical error'

Trying to flash stock 3.14 RUU met with Error 284

Tried flashing from SD card, screen displayed 'Loading...' perpetually

After pulling battery for about 10 mins, powering up to 'Stick Together' splash screen without any red letters

Now when trying to flash using RUU, it would fail with Error 284/266 & the driver would spontaneously change from HTC USB Sync to Qualcomm Diagnostic Interface 3197 (COM17)??!!

Question

:

I think my phone is not bricked but can it be salvaged?

Will the lack of a digitizer prevent it from being flashed?

Can it be salvaged with JTAG?

I cannot charge the battery in the phone now even with power off. Would the remaining battery power prevent or negatively influence the flashing?

Anyone who have met with success in recovering from something like this...or anyone who has dealt with similar symptoms, please advise me what to do from here.

I really need help.

Thanks!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
Stuck radio, not a good sign,, (often sticks at 9% too, anything from 7 to 10 is usually the radio)

probably your only option, though I would guess at a hardware issue, bad nand blocks, or similar with a ll the varied errors.

You could also try chilling teh phone in eth fridge, in a sealed bag for half an hour, with teh sd card ready to flash stock rom straight away, , if this is sucessfull, then you have thermal issues.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konker:
Thanks for the response!

Am I suppose to see the R... at the bottom of the splash screen if the radio is working normally despite having completed Task 29?

I know the OS is wiped but the radio is still there....I think.

Does JTAG restore the radio?

The phone does not get anywhere near hot or very warm when I'm doing all these steps so will putting it in the freezer make a difference? I was under the impression that this works when the device has been exposed to heat or is hot for an extended period of time.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
Task 29 doesnt touch the radio, only the rom. You may be able to flash cooked roms, and maybe magldr, just not anything with a radio included. Fridge probbly won't help if you're happy that it isn't heat related.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konker:
I'm not seeing the R... at the bottom of the splash screen now so does that mean that my radio is fried?

Also, can you comment if not having a digitizer installed would prevent WM6.5 from flashing properly? I've read in the Android thread that it will prevent Android from booting, which is why I decided to flash a WM ROM first to ascertain the hardware condition.

I'll give the 'cold treatment' a try & see how it goes & am in the process of downloading a custom ROM to try. The current HSPL is 2.08 but I'm not sure if it is working properly since the last HSPL attempt ended with the 'We hacked it' stuck on the screen without a reboot & a critical error for the HSPL tool.

Lastly, any idea why it would switch from standard driver to diagnostics driver? It's weird & I can't explain it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
that's worrying, too, because that's what happens when tmous gets radio bricked,,,phone becomes utterly unresponsive and pc searches for qualomm diagnostic drivers.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzstevo:
I too in similar situation. I can't get NAND android to boot up get stuck on 123456 GO GO GO! Try flashing the stock rom and get stuck on 8% Task 29 still work for me. If I flash Task29 you think I'm able to flash a custom rom that doesn't touch the radio? The only problem is that i was able to flash the radio with no problem.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konker:
Do you still have magldr on the phone?

If not, do you see the R...when the default splash screen shows up after powering up the phone?

If not, you might be in a similar situation as me.

I cannot ascertain if my radio is really bricked as there's no way to see or detect that & as samsamuel indicated, having the PC detect a diagnostic port might suggest that my radio is bricked.

I did try to flash a compatible radio to my phone but it failed everytime.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzstevo:
Magldr is still on the phone. I am able to flash new radio with no problem. are you able to flash just a rom and not a a rom & radio?

I think your HD2 is in a lot better shape than mine.

At least you can flash your radio...I can't flash either ROM or radio.

But I suspect your problems might be due to corrupted NAND.

Have you tried Task 29 with mtty?

At least you can see error messages with mtty when doing Task 29.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konker:
ubejd, you gave your HD2 the 'cold treatment' after it turned warm & refused to boot or rebooted automatically am I right?

Would it do my HD2 any good to put it in the freezer when it is cool as room temperature? It has been sitting there unplugged & unpowered for at least 8 hours. I have not tried the 'cold treatment' but flashing custom ROMs with HSPL 2.08 also failed.

Seems like a combination of radio brick & NAND failure...:(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ubejd:
yes you are right my Bro

you can try, it wouldnt do any harm but just put in isolated place - bag before putting in the fridge - to keep safe phone from getting wet and dont let more then 5-10 min maximum... but as i told it will not boot again in win mob - i hope it does but i doubt ... if it fails to boot than consider to go with android or winp7

i have one question how it began to act like this... did it fall or you bought like that

i hope you success

Gave it a go with the freezer test. I was surprise that i was able to boot up into CWM, & load up Android. Now I can only use the phone for maybe 20 min or so before it get hot again and I have to put it back in the freezer. Is there a way to tell which HD2 is bad batch?

I first one had no problem beside the bad screen, my 2nd HD2 is having heating issues. Seem like I can't win.

I had the same problem too. I knew I wasn't the only one with this problem.

Now I'm sure, MAGLDR makes the NAND corrupted (over 8%). My phone won't charge too, gets stuck at 8%, get stuck on splash screen and doesn't show any red lines...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
Flash failing at 8/9% has been happening long before magldr, , and seems to be connected to the radio being corrupted.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PasSlert:
But I can flash a radio via RUU... if my radio were corrupted, flashing a radio should not be possible. Am I right ?

With RUU : I'm stuck about 1 minute on 8% then the process resume up to 100% without any error, but whatever the ROM I flash, no one reach splash screen.

With SD : No problem.

Like the OP, my phone is acting weird when I plug on charge.

With cable to PC : autoboot (MAGLDR 1.13 issue)

With cable to AC : red led but when I plug off the cable, the red led is still on (until I remove the battery).

It's clear that in any way, MAGLDR is not completly removed of my HD2 (yeah, I flashed some stock ROM with SD card).

I think I'll send it to repair, I'll leave feedback if I send it.
