I'm hoping its been posted somewhere. I have read that the latest update promises better battery life. I run kingdom Rom, does anyone have a flashable kernel posted?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
I'm assuming you're talking about the GB OTA sense kernel, if so here you go.........

This will work on kingdom roms.

Yes but from yesterday ota. I already have the other gbread that was released on the 3rd but the ota from the 20th claims better battery life. I just want to test the kernel and see. Thanks if you posted the one from last night.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Ohh ok I'm sorry that's not from yesterday, that's from the GB update. I thought you wanted the may GB kernel because I read 4.24. *facepalm*. You should hang around this thread virus or another dev should post it soon (651.2).

[Samsung Mesmerize] Slie:
I know the Samsung- Fascinate, Mesmerize and showcase are all very similar that is why I am also posting here. My phone build and specs are updated in my signature. I know where to go for rooting it and I know the deal with flashing.

I also know that EC01 was a radio update but mine is EC04? Maybe it's a local thing from my carrier?

I do have a couple questions about carrier settings and such.

I am on a CDMA EvDo.rev.A network and I know my carrier partners with Verizon down south.

What problems might I run into when flashing other ROM's:

Will flashing a ROM mess with anything my carrier needs to keep me connected to the network? If so what?

Will i be able to flash a ROM from either of the three forums for the three phones listed above?

Thank you!

[HTC Desire S] Zheiko:
Hi,

I am sorry if this is mentioned here somewhere, but I could not find anything about it(yes, I did use search button).

So, here it is, My girlfriend bought HTC Desire S few weeks ago, and is using the stock Sense Keyboard(phone in stock condition, not rooted or s-off), and when she's typing, everything goes fine, then she stops typing for a few moments(last time she told me something, took about minute) and then goes back, once she hits the backspace button after this delay, the system shuts down the draft, saving it, but sending her into all messages menu, from there she has to open the draft again to start typing again...

small bug, not a big deal, you can say, but it can get very frustrating after few written SMS... Does anyone here gets same issue? Any idea how to resolve this? I was thinking of getting her different keyboard, e.g. gingerbread stock, which is installable from APK, so ROOT is not needed for that, but still, I'd rather get this resolved and let her use the keyboard she's used to
[HTC Desire S] mikeyd85:
You can download the Gingerbread Keyboard from the market. :)
[HTC Desire S] Zheiko:
I was thinking of that solution as well, till I googled this thread:

http://androidforums.com/htc-desire-s/324029-delete-selection-screen-appearing-when-pressing-backspace-whilst-writing-text.html

Well, according to some people there, its not the solution, so I guess, I will have to get her HancentSMS
[HTC Desire S] mikeyd85:
Tbh, I use handcent anyway. It's pretty much the first thing I install on a new phone / ROM.
[HTC Desire S] Zheiko:
Yea, my girlfriend is a little conservative, so she likes stock things, however I tried to install the Gingerbread keyboard, and she got used to it pretty quickly, and was happy, and same thing actualy happened with Hancent, she liked it very much, so I guess issue solved. Now if anyone of you have same issue, Hancent SMS solves it:)

This thread can be locked as resolved - even tho I still hope HTC will release some hotfix for the stock SMS app
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Let her try the latest release of the SWYPE beta, which I think is great. :D
[HTC Desire S] Zheiko:
Personaly? I hate it, not sure tho if she would like it, since I bought her a smartphone instead of normal phone, I feel like I know nothing about her:D, so she might like it:)
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
hehehehe.....each to their own! ;)

My wife now also wants a DESIRE S....I'm dreading all the questions and discovering all those dark secrets! :D
[HTC Desire S] Zheiko:
Let me give you advice, get her what she wants, once there will be a bug, she'll be blaming herself, I actually pushed her to get DesireS instead of overpriced iPhone4, and now whenever there is something she doesnt like on the phone, I am the one responsible:D but thanks god, so far she sees more pros than cons:D But this bug was pretty annoying tho
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
:D

O dear, she also wanted an Iphone, as all her friends have one, but, I've pushed her down the Android/HTC route...:mad:

I even tried to give her my Desire S so that I could buy myself a Sensation, but I'd scratched it as a result of minor drinking accident so she didn't want it! :mad:

Only time will tell.....Fortunately she's coming from a NOKIA so the things that she'll gain should easily out weigh the losses! :D
[HTC Desire S] Zheiko:
I am with ya bro:D you'll see, Desire S is great phone, feels a way faster than my original Desire, and appart from this one bug she's very happy with it... so as soon as your girlfriend gets this phone, install her hancentSMS to avoid that bug, and she will be happy:)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dascope:
Hi all,

I have a Bell Atrix.

Flashed 2.1.1 french SBF and running GingerBlur 4.5.

Trying to use the built-in 'Mobile hotspot' tethering feature.

I get "Account not set up for Wi-Fi hotspot"... message from AT&T.

The only way to get around this is to add "default,tether" to my APN type. This allows the Mobile hotspot to start, but then I have to go back in and remove the APN type otherwise I have no connectivity to the Bell network.

And basically I have to do these steps all over again when I want to re-enable it.

Anybody got a fix for this, or a better solution? I don't like 3rd party barnacle/wifi-tether apps, for some reason the built-in mobile hotspot works perfect every time.

Thank you,
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantsree:
Hi folks,

I have been using G1 for 6-7 months and had never faced this frigging problem :confused: ...i think it all started when i tried to flash an HTC sense ROM!! I did all the things as instructed for flashing, but it dint work.. Then i reverted to Gingerbread(version-2.3.4) which i was using before. Though the ROM worked i was sickened to see my internal storage memory as it had only 17.75MB left!!! :(. My phone has now Total space just 17.75MB out of which the available space is only 6.70MB!! :(.. Here is a screenshot of my phone storage-

While flashing a swap size of 32 was kept and sd-ext was given 512MB

Any idea how to recover from this frigging problem?????

thanx...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
Remove cMTD ... ;)

Flash the following File, reboot into fastboot, do a "fastboot erase system -w" and reinstall your ROM. This should help ...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantsree:
Thnx for that quick reply.. :).. by 'fastboot' did you mean 'recovery mode'.. I flashed the file and then manually wiped all the data's,dalvik-cahce and other things.. is that enough?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantsree:
@ AndDiSa It worked :D .. that was frigging awesome man!! thanx a lot.. now i have 92MB free.. can you please explain me what the problem really was?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrifta:
haha your problem was that you flashed a custom MTD partition (most likely 145 2) on your device for that sense rom.. but when you do that you need to flash fr-boot after you flash any other rom while you still have that partition.. but since you went back to a diff rom you thought you didnt need the fr-boot lol, so your phone didnt have the correct amount of mb..

When you wipe your data and all that it does NOT remove the custom mtd... thats why you needed to flash the FR-Remove file!! to remove the MTD partition... which basically put your device back how it was when first rooted... 90 2 ... thats the stock partition size for a g1

So long story short your device will be fine and you can re try to flash that sense rom or do anything you want... just be sure to remove a custom mtd if you flashed one for a rom... and plan to change roms.. unless you switch to a rom that also needs a mtd partition.. than you dont have to flash remove.. just flash the boot file after flashing rom. lol sorry if that was confusing..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
:confused: ... that was very confusing.

The base you explained correctly: There was still installed the cMTD patch which gave you a custom partition layout with a big /system partition, but a very small /data partition.

This partition layout is defined by boot img parameters, as in recovery, as for the ROM. Most new ROMs (especially GB-ROMs) detect cMTD automatically, i.e. it's sufficent to patch the recovery image while the boot image is patched automatically when installing the ROM.

When you switch between ROMs the partition layout will be kept, as it was for you when you switched back to the "old" GB-ROM. To return to the "standard" layout (which is defined by the SPL you have installed on your phone), you either have to flash a "clean" recovery, or to remove the cMTD layout with the file I gave you.

If you are more interested in cMTD, in my signature you can find a link to the appropriate thread ... ;)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrifta:
lol sorry im not really sure how the mtd partitions really work.. i just knew i had to use it at one point and i read up a little about it but that was a while ago... so i kinda forgot the exact details.. thank you for clearifying!!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomnten:
What's the difference between debrand and root?

Thanks
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Debranding is removing your operators Custom ROM, along with its custom stuff (normally bloatware), and, installing a generic ROM in its place. Note that if your Wildfire is Sim Locked, Debranding will not unlock it.

Rooting is gaining complete control over your system. (Root access, as called in Linux). Similar to Jailbreak in iOS.

[Nexus S General] eyals76:
Hello all,

I have a nexus s 9020t with stock 2.3.4.

I have been in an office building that has 2 Wifi networks, one for each company.

With my PC I can see both networks, the one for the company I am visiting is a very strong signal and I can connect to it without a problem, the second company is a weak signal.

With my nexus s however, I can only see the weak Wifi, it won't even show the strong signal in the Wifi networks list (and one of the access points for it is right on top of me), I tried both with the stock Wifi setting and with Wifinder.

Other smartphones such as the iPhone have no problem in seeing both networks and connecting to the one with the strong signal.

Any idea why is that?

And do you think we will ever get a fix that boosts the phone's Wifi strengh? (or is there one?) kinda annoying having poor reception when people with iPhones etc... have a good recepotion to the same network.

Managed to get the files downloaded and ODIN working. Switched off phone removed sim & SD. Powered on (HOME>DOWN>POWER) and it cam up downloading. Downloaded Version I5800XWJP.tar to phone (tried several different including ones with out boot bits).

Phone took the files and then re-booted and started the update process

Got to a point that says :

--Delete App Data...

Delete files, please wait.

The phone has been like that for an 1hour now. If I reboot it either hangs at the i5800 screen or restarts this update and halts at same point. WTF.

Just got my Sensation and it is a very solid device; certainly much more solid than the Vibrant in respect to the hardware.

If the hTC is not rooted then how in the world can I restore all my apps that I have backed up via Titanium Backup? If its difficult than waiting until a root for the Sensation might make more sense and I'll keep using the Vibrant.

Thanks! ;)
[HTC Sensation] Lakeshow423:
We have yo wait as we cannot even get temproot. I have all my backups in TB also but what's important to me is to freeze the bloatware..its killing the battery. If you can't wait just use the Vibrant for now till the bootloaderi is ulocked. I'm doing that with my MT4G but using the sensation 90% of the time. It sucks but we just have to wait it out :D
[HTC Sensation] quailallstar:
As I thought but thanks for the advice regardless. :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] c@rL0$:
I utilized MyBackup Pro which was installed on my Nexus One (rooted) to make a backup of all of my streaming applications. The .apk files are stored in your SD card under Rerware I believe.

Install the same application on your Sensation and make a test backup of a single application. Just so that it can create the proper folder directories.

You will essentially move the backup data from the SD card on your old phone to your new one and then perform a restore. This should work for most apps. Excluding the ones that need root access.

Many thanks for this suggested method. Going to try this tonight :cool:
[HTC Sensation] rorycs:
I came from the Vibrant also - MyBackup did save all of the apk's and system data to the Rerware folder on the external SD of the Vibrant. I put the SD from the Vibrrant into the Sensation and it did restore all of the apk's - NOT the data as the Sensation does not have root.

The only data I was able to restore was the call logs, sms & mms messages....

I also have a backup made in Titanium Pro, but it will not run on the Sensation without root. I'd love to have a way to even be able to restore saved apk's from Titanium.....
