[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
Yeah you need to reboot after a radio flash. For future reference, and I mean this to be helpful; you should always read the instructions a few times til it sinks in. also, avoid flashing anything with rom manager ever, always do it manually. You could pm oostah, he hard bricked his phone with a hacked chinese radio, brought it back from the dead, then bricked it again lol. He ended up getting a new phone from sprint cause he was under warranty, I hope you can do the same.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baobrien:
Well, it looks like I'll be stuck with a crap phone for a while. In the mean time, I've got an evo with a broken screen/digitizer that I can save up to replace. This bricked device is interesting, though, from what I know. The person that I got it from bought it very cheaply from some Taiwanese sounding people who claimed it was one of the first few devices on the second production run. From what I was told, they had quite a bit of trouble activating it at the Sprint store and we could never get 3g to work.

[Droid X General] jeffkd411:
Hi this is my first post to xda, even though i have been following for quite a while and have learned alot.

the issue i am having is, my camera button has stopped working. i cant use it to take pictures or open the camera, but it does seem to work with the vol. down and power to boot into boot loader.

with that said, i am thinking the button itself is not broken. I mean the button feels fine when you push it, it has the soft touch for focus and then the final push to take the picture. I have flashed tons of roms and it used to work. I cant really pinpont exactly when it stopped working.

i would live with this problem if there was a way around using the camera button in clockwork recovery, but from what i have read, there is not.

i want to install rooted GB. to do this, i need to sbf back to froyo (which i can do now), then flash the leaked GB .595 or .596 which you are probably aware of (without the camera button, i cannot perform the 2 part install).

Has anyone else ran into this problem? I read in another forum that someone else had a unresponsive camera button, they installed the Verizon OTA GB and the button worked again. I have tried this, it did not work for me. But if it worked for someone, there must be a way to fix it. I just have no idea myself. Hopefully someone will be able to point me in the right direction. Maybe even create an update.zip to correct the issue (i know this might be asking a lot).

Thank you.
[Droid X General] mpmorph:
i have the same issue. i can use it to boot into boot loader, but then it doesn't work. I can't use it in the CM recovery menu nor to activate the camera or snap pictures.

I called verizon and of course they said its defective that it needs to be replaced. But if somebody knows how to deal with it without replacing the unit please feel free to post your ideas.......please?
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
This is a hardware issue, and to my knowledge, there's nothing to do to fix it.

I'm sorry to say, but I believe you need a replacement
[Droid X General] BBJohnnyT:
I had to do the same thing too. There are lots of reports of defective camera buttons on the X. And, there is no way to use CM Recovery with a broken camera button since you have to use it to make your selections. Believe me, I looked for workarounds and found none. Fortunately, there is a year warranty and I received a replacement the next day after calling Verizon. The replacement was already on GB, so I just SBFed it back to .340 and went through the P3Droid upgrade process. Finished up by restoring my apps I made with Titanium Backup (the replacement X doesn't come with an SD card or batter, you use your old one). Now I have an X with a working camera button.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bamabruin:
My Mom recently got the G2X per my advice, and is complaining about the battery. I can root her device, freeze bloatware, install juicedefender/setcpu, but since she lives out of town, I'm afraid if she wants to exchange the device, it would be difficult to talk her through the unrooting steps.

Should I wait for the GB update and hope the battery gets a major improvement w/o needing to root, or go ahead and root it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hoggles:
One fix you could have your mom try is setting the network preference to WCDMA ONLY. If she is in an area that has good/great 4G coverage, she would not have to worry too much about it losing all bars and trying to reduce to 2G as it does by default when set to GSM/WCDMA AUTO.

It's goes against all logic because WCDMA ONLY (4G/3G only) should eat up more battery, but there seems to be some sort of bug that makes it conserve energy when not on auto and not trying to switch back and forth.

Again...maybe give it a try if she has good 4G coverage where she lives, works, plays etc. Since yesterday morning when I first tried this, my battery life went from an average of 5-6 hours, to an average of 12-14 hours. All with fairly heavy use of GPS, WIFI, Web, Calls etc.

Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Mode > WCDMA ONLY. Reboot device....fingers crossed :)

Good Luck!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
Wait till GB is your best bet in that situation
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonapunk:
I know I dont post on here often but ive had several android devices and this phone is the worst in battery life. Was getting 8 hours, max

What I did that helped was root the phone and inastalled setcpu and changed the default sync times of facebook weather bug e lite ect to two hours and finally I get a full days use. (16) hours or more I still have bluetooth wifi qnd gps on. I hope this helps.

Oh and I do toggle 4g / hspa and edge when I know I wont be around a charger this makes the battery last about 20 hours for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
What's your settings for setcpu?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonapunk:
323 min 1k max nvidia tegra 2 for.device selection
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
I'm assuming that's screen off correct?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jalshah05:
I haven't rooted my phone neither have installed setcpu. I have installed only juice defender and I get more than a day of battery life. I used to get only 6 hours max before.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonapunk:
Set cpu manages the speed based on demand.

If your talking about battery time then its what I call moderate use of about 40 text and hour of talk time and glancing at engadget.mobile for a couple of minutes.

Not like today im using this thng like crazy and sitting at half battery now . Took off the charger ar 8 and its almost four now
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bamabruin:
Do you use SetCPU in conjunction with JuiceDefender, or should it be one or the other?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brett_day:
I am rooted but am running stock, I have juice defender installed and get a full day out of my battery. Unplug at 7am in the morning, moderate use during the day including games, txting, and gaming and then by the time i go to bed at around 11pm or so I am usually down to 20% or so. Juice defender is amazing. According to my battery stats I have been unplugged for 7hrs 27 mins and I am at 80%
[T-Mobile LG G2x] freakboy13:
I use both works great.

Great work, thanks for sharing the document! :)
[Shift General] motoi_bogdan:
hello, while you're at it you may also want to change polarity to one of the 2 speakers (reverse the 2 wires soldered to it). I found out on my shift that they were soldered wrong by the manufacturer and they kind of cancelled each other. I cannot explain the audio terms in english but you may want to try and see if they sound better that way.

By the way, i wrote that guide, nice to see if it helps anyone :)
[Shift General] PlayStation:
I am not sure I understand the speakers bit..... To my ears the speakers sound ok complete with stereo sound. When you say soldered wrong what does that mean. Plus If I am not wrong the speakers wiring is within the housing for the screen and not the lower part that houses the motherboards, keyboard etc. Maybe you could explain a little more I have a closer look. Thank you for the info.

[HD2 General] kosa911:
As in Title. I'm quite used to 4'3" screen. But i thought about change. What dou you think?
[HD2 General] Jake254:
If you want anything similar to the HD2s customization capabilities, steer well away from the WP7 handsets. I moved from Android to WP7 but now I've gone back to Android because WP7 is such a locked down ecosystem. E.g. you can't even put your own ringtones on it, but thats just an example.

It's all opinion but I would go for the Desire HD.
[HD2 General] johnerz:
The Sensation, or Desire S I would sell it and keep my HD2 :)
[HD2 General] silverwind:
Go for Sensation or SGS II or EVO 3D ;)

Cheers
[HD2 General] Warren_Orange:
Isn't the Sensation locked down though so you can't install custom ROM's?
[HD2 General] THUDUK:
I sold my HD2 for an Iphone 4 (nice phone but I'm an android)

now I am looking to get a Samsung Galaxy S2, the sensation screen looks terrible
[HD2 General] Theonew:
Go for the Desire HD. It's hardware is even more powerful that the HD2's! Also, as someone said earlier, don't go for WP7. You won't have as much freedom as with android.
[HD2 General] Kailkti:
No the sensation will be unlocked soon enough. Htc is going to be delivering an update/s for it to be unlocked. Both the sgs 2 and sensation are good choices, but do you have the budget?

$1 gets you a reply
[HD2 General] raven_raven:
Desire HD, it just a better HD2 with pre-installed Android. WP7 is not good OS yet, I don't it will be as good as Android even after Mango update.
[HD2 General] dev311k:

[HD2 General] dmx489371:

why not just go dual core and get the SGS2 or Sensation (although the titled screen effect on the sensation looks horrid). If for some reason you really don't want to then Desire HD it is
[HD2 General] chandureddy99:
Samsung galaxy s 2

If you cant live without sense just like me then go for Incredible S or wait for Sensation. Otherwise Galaxy s 2 is the way to go. Trust me. You wont look back.
[HD2 General] x1123:
my suggestion Sensation, Motorola atrix, samsung galaxy s 2. I have Incredible S (... unrotable so far). HD2 just brick but dunno it going for funeral on not :-))

cheers up
[HD2 General] x1123:
I rename by Incredible S to IncRAPdible S ... this is unrootable phone, shipped with S-ON. I'm waiting AlphaREV-X :-))
[HD2 General] kosa911:
OK I have final candidates

1. HTC HD7

+: I like WP7 I had it on my HD2 for a while, cheapest one

-: worst hardware, I heard rumours about SIM card uncovered by cover entirely

2. HTC Sensation

+:I love Sense, qHD, best built quality, dual core

-: most expensive, for a price like that I think TFT LCD should by changed for AMOLED

3. SGS II

+: best hardware, it's so thin, AMOLED, dual core

-: It isnt built that good as Sensation, not qHD screen, TouchWiz

4. LG optimus 3d

+: dual core, 3d

-: Eye problems after long play with 3d, headaches, LG UI

which one of these is the best?
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
I saw the otterbox defender for the Evo 3D listed today on ebay, and Amazon. Of course I ordered one immediately. I went with ebay for the free shipping.

---------------

Well the otterbox has arrived! here are some pics of the one I received.Make sure and check out the hands on review I uploaded in HD! The case is not that bulky at all. It seems slimmer than the one for the Evo 4G. To bad I dont have that one anymore to compare it to.

The case has a cool tab that will lock the belt clip open to turn it into a kickstand when you dock the phone with the screen facing out. [see pics]

Only the camera lenses have plastic covering them (and the screen itself of course), the speaker and LED flash holes are open. The LED hole does have a foam gasket that will form a tight seal to the phone. This I hope will reduce light bleed while using the flash which would wash out the photo.

Thats looks good to me.. if Evo 3d comes to Holland i buy one for me and one for my wife..

Is ther a homepage for this stuff?

looks like the camera is good protected to.. ( i hate scratches)
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
The otterbox website has not added the evo 3d line yet. I would think they will be available at launch on the 24th.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Hopefully its not like the evo was with them. It took them forever to.get cases out for the evo when it came out.

couldn't find it on Amazon....I wonder if they took it down.
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
I still see it on amazon
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
That's strange because I emailed them a few days ago and they responded back that they had no information on whether a case would be made for that phone. At least I won't have to wait as long as I did with the original EVO. Hopefully the Commuter isn't far behind.

Its not on oterrbox's site?

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
Yeah I got the same response when I emailed them a week ago. I emailed them again to verify these are legit
[HTC EVO 3D] Reaper333:
I ordered one and its on the way to me now. Ill report back as to if these are legit or not. I have some doubt but, what the hell at least give it a try. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
I know it's fake now....this is their support # (888)695-8820 and when calling they said they don't know if they are going to make a case for the evo 3d yet.

also here is the response from the email i sent
[HTC EVO 3D] Reaper333:
Yeah, Im one of those people that just has to see for himself. Will see when this thing gets here what it really is. Ill be the guinea pig. lol
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
haha well good luck:)
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
yeah i ordered one too. The seller has tons of positive feedback, thats the only reason I purchased. I already have tracking. Its coming from indiana.

ps, it looks like the inventory he had is gone, and or otterbox ordered a cease and desist. anyway as long as it fits the evo 3d ill rock my fodderbox.
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
Okay now im leaning twards fake, The top picture I linked from the sellers page appears to be the otterbox defender for the HTC inspire. I noticed the time and date were the same.

crossing fingers it fits the phone. If not its going back. seller says they take returns as long as the packaging is there. Its easy to file a "item not as described" or "counterfit item" claim on ebay.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
Glad they took him down........ well hope it works for you guys though I know those fake chinese knockoff otterbox defender cases are worth around $6-10 from what i've seen and will probably break easily.

Lol that was pretty obvious since the 3d doesn't look like that, easiest way to tell is the 4 buttons. Htc changed them on the 3d. Also it's proven that it's fake if you look at the picture I posted at the top of this page.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
I would never thrust anything like that, especially when its not even on the official otterbox site yet. Also it says if fits all those other phones. Yea right.

R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
Im not debating its a knock off. BUT What I am wondering is will it actually fit the evo 3d. Ill just look at it when it gets here (monday?) and make my decition. Since it looks like I have 7 days to return it and the evo 3d may not be out yet , when the case gets here ill post some pics here Ill them make my decision on keeping it or not. most likely its going straight back.

anyway.. Ill update when it get here.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
Oh....That i don't know, from the picture that's posted it seems like it would fit
[HTC EVO 3D] Averix:
Ok, I bought one. We'll see if it even shows up. I'm still on the fence for if it is real or not. The picture of the backside is interesting. If you look on the left side closely, there is a little bit of text. It's "2D 3D" etched into the case. So, if this is a fake, there is quite a bit of detail in it.
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
yeah i saw the 2d 3d thing, i hope the camera button is behind just the silicone and not a door you have to open.

This is just my thoughts... there is no truth behind what im about to say... but maybe there is a test run prototype that got leaked and otterbox does not what to fess up until they know it will fit the e3d. Or it could be a knock off of a REAL prototype.

Ill just compare it to my 3 other defender series products, there are tell tale signs if it is a genuine item or even a genuine copy. What im getting at is there are ways of telling if otterbox put R&d into this item.

and we'll know for sure when the otterbox e3d shows up on their website and looks the same as this one. im kind of glad this knockoff one des'nt have that cheap plastic kickstand that my evo 4g case has.. or i should say had. It snapped off after one of the hinge pins cracked, and i never even used the stand.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
It's definitely fake since even Otterbox knows nothing about it. There are lots of cheap Chinese cases online for the Evo3D so they definitely know the size and information(as we all do). All they needed to do is make it look legit, which they did.
[HTC EVO 3D] Averix:
Otterbox is just saying the company line. That's like asking a Sprint store employee when the Photon will come out. Ok, maybe not that bad...

I don't really factor that in one way or another. There could be a warehouse full of real Otterboxes in China ready for shipping. Or, there could be a warehouse full of cheap knockoffs and one of those is heading to my front door. LOL

Either way, I'll have a case for when I get it. If it's not real, I'll replace it with one when OB gets it done (or sooner if it's really crappy/cheap).
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
im kind of looking forward to its arrival. Its a mystery.

BTW, the $7 fake otterbox commuter i got for my sisters iphone 4 is great. We compared it to a genuine and the poly was a little thicker and has the same flexibility.

Im not saying that this case is going to be the same build quality, but i can hope
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
Some of the knockoffs are not that bad
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
Yea I was just concerned about build quality and price. If the build quality is good then there's no problem besides the price. I just can't pay full retail for something I know isn't legit and will not come with the support/warranty.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
agreed, I wonder if these fell off a truck or something. Pictures look pretty good they might be legit, but who knows until it shows up.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
seems that they were indeed real http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/06/otterbox-confirms-authenticity-of-htc-evo-3d-defender-case-listed-on-ebay.html

I had a big argument with the seller over at that site since he wouldn't post proof, but seems that they accidentally sold 25 cases early.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
well hell why dont they just release them all now then? Nice score.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
Yeah I agree, I think they will be out at launch at least since distributors got their hands on them
[HTC EVO 3D] Averix:
Yes!!! Scored one of those 25. :)

Now the question is, how long before they actually announce the case? They may be exclusive to Sprint stores or something for the launch and that's why they aren't planned for general distribution yet.
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
I too, scored one of the 25! Cheers
[HTC EVO 3D] Reaper333:
Cool looks like I got one of the 25 as well. Im glad it turns out these are real. Makes spending the money a little easier. I got it at the 46.00 price before it went to 49. :) Yes, saved three dollars.
