Ha. The specs between the sensation and mt4g do not warrant buying it. Stay with the mt4g.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] LovellKid:
Am I gonna do some damage selecting re-partition in Odin? My tab updated fine to 3.1, I was installing apps and my Tab went into a bootloop. Well I've Odined back to stock several times, but this time after it completes, it bootloops and never boots up.

Would that solve my problem? Or make matters worse?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] clubtech:
Try to wipe data from recovery before doing a reparation.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] LovellKid:
Thanks for the reply. It would shut off when i issued the adb command to reboot into recovery, but the 10th time i tried it, it finally booted into recovery. Problem aborted :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stinky73:
To the both of you in this thread, LovellKid and Clubtech

Were you to repartition would you use a .pit file, and if so which one, 512 or 813 (Tried without repartion get write error, tried with repartion but without .pit file and get "error at line 1455")

My Google I/O not recognised by any software (adb, fastbbot, kies) can't even get it to bootloop now (which it was doing before) so only alternative is complete crush the thing and try to start again......the old sledgehammer to crack a walnut theory :rolleyes:

Seems that Odin is the only thing that will talk to the tab, but gives a write error at end of upload process, can't think of any tricks to get out of this except 100% empty the thing and try to start again

Thanks guys
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] LovellKid:
It seems to me that if Odin can see your device, fastboot should be able to? Have you tried issuing the fastboot -w command?
[HTC Inspire 4G] uberpwner:
I recently installed the gingerbeast rom on my phone, and now, whenever I get texts, there is no vibration. The text tone works, and my phone vibrates for calls and pressing buttons, but it doesn't vibrate for texts, even when I set it to always vibrate. Is that part of the rom, or is there something wrong with my phone??
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bamatide2007:
i would assume rom. try doing a fullwipe and installing another rom just to see.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
I'd go through the rom thread and see if anyone else has experienced your issue (though, this is cumbersome)...

Try clearing the dalvik cache and reboot....

Is vibrate (in message settings) enabled?

If that doesn't work, try out this app. I used it on the stock rom and it worked wonderfully. I'd bet that it would do the trick for you too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] marsdta:
Open up your text app. Hit menu>setting >notification setting. Their just change as you see fit

Um...wow, I feel stupid now. >< haha thank you guys for the help!

i found that if you move apps to your sd and then do a APK back up the apps that you move to your SD wont be save..

as wolfbrake mention on one of his threads,, to do a fresh installs he recomeds to backup your apps whit root explorer or another file explorer whit su permmisions on your sd, then moved to your apps folder to be installed whit flashtool,, been doing the same for all 4 roms ive tested,, and on the last two back ups i notice that,, cause on those back ups i choose to move some apps to the sd,,,,... so

at no charge her is the info hope its help full
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rtblittlebrown:
We have a app section

Or you could of posted it on wolfs thread

Not really helpful usless thread

I apologize if this seems rude or mean . Just stating my honest opinion
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MacDrunk:
No proble just fell free to move it
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
Really? Most of my apps are stored in my sd card. And I can back them up just fine using titanium backup.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] anantshri:
This appliable only in case when you are taking backup as in copy /data/app you also need to take backup of app apeksha from sdcard also that's why we have backup software's.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MacDrunk:
well i figure that out when i tray to make a backup of all my apps, from /data/app every time y try to install a new rom and try to move them to apps folder over flashtool prog,, then try to install then whit flash,...

[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
Hi Guys...

I have a Thunderbolt now (rooted) that waqs giving me problems I was going from 4g to 3g to 1x and then I wasn't getting any data at all. This started last night....I figured I would wait because it was a network problem

This morning the same thing was happening....I called VZ tech support and they told me before they send me a new phone...I have to go to a VZ store and get a new sim card. I unrooted my phone and went to the store. I got a new sim card and that didn' help. I called back tech support and they said they will send me a new Thunderbolt. I have a family plan and I have 4 phones on my plan (mine is the only smartphone) I asked if I can get a CHARGE...after some back n forth chat...he told me that they will send me a NEW Charge...and also a belt clip and screen protector for no charge....

I love my Thunderbolt...and I know there are pors and cons betwen both phones.....but I really use my Slingbox app alot and I wanted to get the charge because of the screen...so Monday or Tuesday my new charge arrives...

hope I didn't make a mistake not going with the Thunderbolt....thoughts??

I guess I will be in your forums more often now! LOL
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
I did the same thing. And I'm never looking back. I love my charge. It took about two days to get used to it bc of the plastic feel but now I love it. The phone runs so smooth with the voodoo lagfix and the roms are amazing and very slim. Your battery life is also amazing. Twice as long as Thunderbolt. Be happy you switched as your getting an AMAZING phone
[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
Thanks...I am so skeptical....if I did the right thing.....

Did you root yours???

I may or may not root mine.....I rooted my TB....

I may just wait for the over the air update....I guess I will see when I get the phone
[Verizon Droid Charge] omnia38:
The phone is much better after the latest update that was pushed out. The web browsing (flash content) used to be my biggest compliant. It was so slow and choppy. But now everything is right where it was at when using my old Thunderbolt. I do suggest rooting and custom Rom' ing it. Particularly the voodoo lag fix.
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
I am rooted but it's not needed
[Verizon Droid Charge] Haze69:
I'm debating on switching from my thunderbolt to charge mainly for the hdmi, let me know it is compared to your old thunderbolt speed wise and battery.. thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
I originally had a TB as well. Used since the first day it was released, then the first day Charge was released I hopped on that band wagon.

Just like Papi92 said, never looked back. Prefer the Charge over TB hands down all the way.
[Verizon Droid Charge] omnia38:
After the latest update the speed is very close between devices. I don't use Touchwiz, any replacement launcher works better. As mentioned, I do have a custom rom on my Charge. I used to use a custom rom on my Thunderbolt as well. (bamf 1.6) I get much better battery life out of the Charge. About three to four hours more. The browser lag was fixed by the last Verizon update. I would recommend the Charge over the Thunderbolt simply because I have had many fewer problems with the Charge and the battery life and the screen are amazing.

My wife has my old Thunderbolt and she emails me pictures that she takes on her Thunderbolt, so she can view them on my screen.

Hope this helps.

I came from the thunderbolt last night and do not regret it lol
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
So the cable between the screen and keyboard that is exposed on the G2 is bent and the touch screen no longer works.

It bent over a period of time. It would always make a click and i thought it was normal. I guess it wore out and bent all the way inward causing the touchscreen to no longer work.

Would repair be covered by HTC warranty?

Since the cable is exposed.. would this be a common problem that affects a small percentage of users? NOPE.. I GUESS IT WAS JUST ME.. I don't know about you guys but that cable being exposed is kind of scary.. so handle with a lot of care!! :)

Edit: Called HTC and they said my unit is still covered by warranty until about the end of the year so as long as it is not user error, missing void sticker, or unauthorized software.. warranty should cover it.

Would the bent cable be cause of user error? Apparently since the cable is exposed, HTC most likely will decide it is a design flaw or faulty unit because the ribbon cable was never aligned like other G2's i had seen.

BTW.. no T-Mobile warranty so it isn't as easy as going back to T-Mobile and getting it swapped!

I restored to factory settings, Turned S-ON and flashed stock and finally shipped.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
Reserved for Final Details!!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swee08315:
Normal use isn't user error. that's only if you treated it improperly.

but if your phone is rooted or has a custom rom, that's going to be a problem
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
It's stock! :) COUGH COUGH!!!

Ok well I'm sending it in tomorrow. Will be waiting for HTC's response.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
Just got an email that they have sent my G2 back!!!! :) Repaired or not..

I'm not too sure since i wasn't contacted... meaning either they repaired it because it was still under warranty or they just sent it back unfixed without a single notice! (Which would be really messed up..and horrible Service and also Highly unlikely because they must contact you to charge and authorize a triage fee of 39 dollars to get your unit shipped back unrepaired)

So hopefully HTC fixed it!!! I sent it in on Monday, June 13, 2011. USPS Priority Mail. It got to them yesterday.. because the tracking number said they got it around 9 in the morning. It is now June 16, 2011 and this is what i received in my email! CHECK BELOW

IM HAPPY AS HELL! I was scared/worried that they wouldn't fix it or that they wouldn't return my phone unless i paid the triage fee of $39.

I read so many articles about how crappy and ridiculous HTC Repair Centers are and how long they make you wait..

Until I receive it I will know for sure.

RANT IS OVER....

Here is the email!

Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you for using HTC Repair Services. HTC America is committed to

creating superior products which offer the highest standards of quality,

durability, and reliability.

Your repairs have been completed and your unit has been shipped from our

Repair Center or, if repair options were declined, your unit is being

shipped back without repair.

blah blah blah.. lol well yeah thats enough of my experience. I still haven't received it yet so it is too early to be celebrating.. it should arrive either tomorrow, Monday or the latest Tuesday!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeuout:
Wow congrats...score 1 for the good guys
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeuout:
Maybe a premature celebration but a tmobile rep told me they never ship a fixed phone back without bein paid (if that applys...which urs doesnt)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
I haven't paid anything.. I guess my unit's warranty covered all the expenses :)

I didn't even have to pay the TRIAGE FEE ($39.00) WHICH THEY SPECIFICALLY SAID I WOULD BE CHARGED IF THE WARRANTY WAS VOID IN ANYWAY OR IF I REFUSED TO PAY THEIR REPAIR QUOTE AND WANTED MY UNIT SHIPPED BACK TO ME UNREPAIRED!!

Maybe an early celebration, but who knows! Maybe the good guys finally win one! Or maybe their repair centers got a lot better which is very likely since they have been selling devices like hot cakes and most of the stories I read were from the middle of 2010. I guess HTC is stepping their game up this year!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeuout:
Ill cross my fingers for ya
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
Thanks!

I called HTC Customer Care today, they told me IT HAD BEEN REPAIRED!!!!! OH YEAH!!

They replaced a rigid flex board? Well thats what the lady on the phone told me lol

That my device was diagnosed and repaired yesterday. Also that it was checked once again for quality assurance (fancy term for "HOLD UP.. did I fix this **** right") and shipped back to me :) The lady also verified that a tracking number was available! Hurray!! It matched up with the one from my email!

Estimated delivery: Tuesday!! I am so excited!

I can't stand using the nokia 2720 flip phone any longer! Texting is a ***** lol

I just got my G2 back due to a busted Mic, it took exactly 10 days for them to repair a mic.... lol. I'm sad that they only fixed the mic.... and nothing extra :(. Was hoping they would catch the hinge problem, and tighten it up for me :\. But overall the process was smooth. They kept me up to day via Email. Also they updated to Gingerbread lol. Guess it's gunna roll out soon.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chinam4n:
Yeah, I was afraid of that happening, but hey its better to not have a root for a while than a broken mic whereas the phone is pointless other than texting lol. Just have to sit tight for a bit for a dev to create a root for Gingerbread. Unless HTC puts the unlock bootloader for the G2 with the update. Its a long shot tho...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
I will be getting my phone in the mail tomorrow! Hopefully its on froyo and not gingerbread!! Will update post. In the mean time I will be crossing my fingers!

EDIT: NOO! IT ARRIVED AND ITS ON GINGERBREAD 2.3.3!!! :/

Is there any way to downgrade from 2.3.3??
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
Not at this point... Would require root in order to change the version in the MISC partition, then flash an official zip - kinda self defeating :-(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
So what we need is a temporary rooting method to change the misc partitition to downgrade to Froyo and perma-root from there.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
Based on everything I've read, yes.

The official firmware won't allow a downgrade, so, you have to drop the version number to either the same version or lower than that of the official ROM you're putting on.

Once that's done, you can drop the "new" ROM on without a problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
How hard is it to get a temp-root going?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
Mine came back this morning - with Gingerbread...

Oh well - it will make a great backup phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scythe01:
Oh man I envy you guys about your phones being repaired but on the other hand I don't.

Sent my Desire Z in twice and both times the touchscreen came back unrepaired, applied legal pressure(either respond and cough up monies or replacement within next seven days or I'll see you in court and tear you to shreds) to which coughed up a fresh replacement (new, unopened box with accessories etc), two days later another mysteriously turned up.

Technically speaking they have two weeks to pipe up otherwise all three are mine and they can't do a single thing about it. Currently running Virtuous Unity 1.25 on the broken one(I didn't wanna accidentally brick a new one) and its amazing!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jvidia:
Friends .... anyone here has a Suncase on the SII ?

It's this one: http://www.amazon.de/Suncase-Handyt...Rueckzugfunktion/dp/B004UEX2B6/ref=pd_sxp_f_i

It looks nice but some amazon reviews says it is too tight.

Can anyone confirm ?

Any alternative?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Hige:
At the begining any leather case will looks like it's too tight, it's normal.

The expected is the leather will expand with some use, so, after 2 or 3 days using the case, it will probably get the right shape of the phone and will fit perfectly..

That's my experience with leather cases..

i love this launcher its just im bored allready with black background app drawer...is there a way to change background??? Maybe to try edit the apk???
[XPERIA X8 General] deedii:
Subscribing. I wanted also to change the black bg..
[XPERIA X8 General] Georg1992ad:
I wanted that too. But i also encountered something strange about it. I recently installed a beautiful live wallpaper ported over from Sense. As it's not uncommon, the framerate of the homescreen in general, lowered. But what was the strange thing about it: the framerate of the app drawer (which has a completely black, still background) has also been decreased, which normally shouldn't happen, as the homescreen background vanishes when the app drawer is open (so normally the phone hasn't to calculate anything except for scrolling and opening/closing animation.)

Sent from my Xperia X8
[XPERIA X8 General] Dare-Devil Inside:
Live wallpaper use processor to update it self, so you can expirience performance drop ;)

@OP - That is not possible :(

I want it to...

Maybe it will be, when 1.0 comes out :D
[HTC Wildfire S] dcar:
Hi all,

my wife owns a Wildfire S since a couple of days.

But I am quite disappointed about the amount of available memory (internal storage) for applications.

She does not have a lot of applications installed (about 5), but the available is only about 93 MB.

When going to "Settings - Applications - Manage Applications" it shows me at the bottom of the screen "Internal Storage: 57MB used, 93MB free".

The phone specs state RAM 512 MB and Internal Storage also 512MB. Why is it showing only 140MB in reality?

Can someone explain this, please?

Is this normal?

How much available storage do you guys have on yours, please?

(Btw, also via "Settings - Storage" it shows "92,07MB as available space" on internal storage)

The phone is a T-Mobile branded one from The Netherlands.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Wildfire S] undeadsoul85:
Mine got 512MB internal storage as well, but i think that the OS uses some space that don't show up. Have you tried moving apps to the SD card?
[HTC Wildfire S] dcar:
Moving apps to SD indeed does free up some memory, however...

I have only installed a few apps (less then 10mb all together), therefore I am quite disappointed with the little available memory.

The phone is a dutch Tmobile version. I can see there are a few Tmobile apps built-in into the rom, but surely they can't take up that much space, could it? (Adding up used + available internal storage only totals about 150mb, which is far from the 512mb as in the specs?)
[HTC Wildfire S] booshankly:
Same issue! I got mine yesterday and after barely installing anything. Im low on internal memory and it adds up to 140mb not 512.

:mad:
[HTC Wildfire S] imlgl:
Btw android, sense and other HTC things take up that memory. It is only 512mb when there is nothing on the internal memory.
[HTC Wildfire S] Evincar1978:
Same issue here. Quite a disappointment and no way to really solve it.
[HTC Wildfire S] shotgun32:
Hello all, search 'darktremor app2sd' in this xda website :)
[HTC Wildfire S] booshankly:
Im amazed at how little memory this phone has. After 2 days and 5 apps its basically completely out of space. I liked the smaller form factor but this is ridiculous.
[HTC Wildfire S] sunnyhj:
U can move all of ur apps to SD if u want...and it doesn't even require rooting...i was also having problem with this whole low internal memory thing..but i found this...

"http://androidforums.com/desire-tips-tricks/174345-how-move-apps-sd-card-unrooted-device-noobs-guide-updated-09-02-11-a.html"

its quiet simple really...it does help a little...with this u can use "move to SD card" option in application settings for nearly all the apps..

Hope this helps.. :)

PS : u can use an app called android tool box..its really useful..it has many options like app manager, cache cleaner,file explorer,start up manager and many more..it is quiet handy when u'r low on Ram or space..

Is there a way to port honeycomb to the epic then turn down the resolution to where it looks like gingerbread.... I saw this done on some other phones.... if it could be done would it be worth it..... would there be any performance gain...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpicyBurrito:
It wouldn't be worth it. Honeycomb was made for tablets, not phones. Beside, we don't even have the SDK, so there's not much to work with, so you wouldn't get any "performance gain". Just use the honeycomb theme if you want the look.
