[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Well you are completley wrong. It has absolutely nothing to do with any limitations of teh hardware of the HD2 in the slightest. We had many bugs when first porting other types of roms.

Its simply software issues that can be addressed and fixed as time goes.

Well you could apply the same logic to apps on phones.

The point of playing games on mobile is because they are mobile games, same as mobile apps.

I personally play games on my tablet on the move but if I didnt have my Tab I would play them on my mobile.

It doesn't exist yet. ALL roms sense or not have bugs to some extent, some you can get by with tweaks/fix's some are not fixed yet like the ones in Sense 3 like the stock camcorder and gfx glitches.

The best/most stable rom I've found based on Sense v3 is teh one in my signature.

So a buddy of mine gave me his samsung captivate said he screwed it up and cant get it to work anymore. And if I could fix it I could have it since he bought another phone from someone else. I asked him what he did.

Well while he was going to update thru kies before screen went into the download mode he had turned off usb debugging. Then the phone went into download mode. and was stuck there. Now when the phone turns on you get the black background with a pic of phone orange or red triangle with ! and computer. Is there anyway to resolve this issue to get it to back to booting properly with the original software thats on the phone or did the software that was originally on the phone get deleted. I have read many of the forums pertaining to the graphics when it comes on but I havent seen any where it had what e did with the debugging.

I tried to get it into the emergency recovery mode but that was a fail.

I have spent the past couple days reading and trying to figure it out. Many thanks for all feedback:cool:

Also saw where a jig would brick the download so you could boot back regular does this work?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SunTzuXtremeIdiots:
With Odin I get

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

I think its because he had turned off the usb debugging right before it went into download mode

I tired the AIO Captivate tools

and it keeps saying to turn usb debuuging on
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SunTzuXtremeIdiots:
I can get it into download mode from the black screen with phone orange triangle computer by holding the up/down volume button and power button after screen flashes 2 times plug usb cable into phone releasing power button and download mode appears but cant go any further than that.
[HTC Incredible S] Singhman:
I need a phone that has a working gps. I have a samsung galaxy s, and gps sucks!!! I'm not talking about number of satellites, i'm talking about accuracy (on the app "gps test"). On my samsung it jumps around from 32 to 64ft accuracy and puts me on parallel streets.

Today a store rep let me take a htc incredible S in my car and drive around a bit. I was shocked to see that the gps accuracy was worse than my galaxy s!!! It found and locked onto many satellites (sometimes 11 of 11) but the accuracy sucked. It would fluctuate anywhere from 30 ft to 120 ft accuracy using the gps test app. At some points it would show me off of the road. Is this a common problem on this phone? I borrowed a friends motorolla atrix the other day and had an accuracy of 4.9ft! Thats accurate to like 2 steps! Would really appreciate your feedback. If your gps accuracy is good on your phone, then what do you think could have caused the one i tried today to be so horrible? Thanks
[HTC Incredible S] Alasdairyee:
Nope not for me, but we're in different parts of the world. Mine's quite accurate and fast actually, with AGPS assisting.
[HTC Incredible S] John Anderton:
Has always sucked for me in India.. then again I'm in the city and most of the time indoors :)

When I say it's always sucked, I mean it's always sucked for all my phones :) Incredible S does the same (quite so) lame job as my old Nokia did.. nothing to write home about. I just wrote that off to my region/country/conditions here or whatever :)

If I get it within 100m, I'm excited 8-) 4.5 meters? lol.. :P
[HTC Incredible S] moyorakkhi:
GPS accuracy really sucks on Incredible S. I've used HTC Hero for more than 1 year and never had any problem. Hero's GPS accuracy as sooo perfect. But I'm VERY disappointed with Incredible S. I've tried all possible ways, like calibrating the GPS, deleting and re-downloading a-data. But it's same. No improvements.
[HTC Incredible S] RicarduZonta:
For me it works with no problems. Uk and Austria I used it in. Sometimes the lock times can be long, so I hardly ever disable gps, so it can collect almanac data. It is not a battery drag, it only uses lot of battery when it's active in the notification area. I use it to navigate on foot as well and I can tell it is seriously correct on location. +-1m

I had crap location info in maps and Igo myway only when the device was waiting to get a proper gps lock and only wireless location data was available which is useless for navigation purposes.
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
Maybe "GPS test" sucks? Works fine for me.
[HTC Incredible S] itandy:
Same here. Was a Hero user before switching to IncS. I still have both devices so I tested them side by side. Hero is much better in every aspects, including lock time, no of sats discovered and signal strength. I believe IncS is limited by its antennae design.

[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
odd, i'm from Canada and i've always had awesome gps accuracy and speed on a couple of htc phones. locks within 5 seconds and accurate within 5 to 7 meters.

you guys sure you are using correct settings? perhaps it's carrier dependant, although I doubt it.
[HTC Incredible S] KAwAtA:

[HTC Incredible S] scoobysnacks:
It was equally bad on every rom i've tried.

Maybe it is location specific I'm in the east coast of Canada.

Also, the test something for me..

In location settings turn off location by wireless network and try gps only
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
@scooby

have u tried using the updated gps.conf file from the gps thread? I also have location by network setting off.
[HTC Incredible S] scoobysnacks:
Yeah I did. I'm using that now actually and it still sucks. My accuracy is 3600 meters lol
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
did u add "supl" to your apn type?
[HTC Incredible S] scoobysnacks:
Yeah default, supl, mms is already there
[HTC Incredible S] suchevent:
jeez, maybe it is location specific...
[HTC Incredible S] scoobysnacks:
I never had an issue on my x10 though, or on sense roms if I chose wireless network location.

Now I still get nothing even when choosing wireless.
[HTC Incredible S] katu2006:
Just tested my Inc S with "GPS Test" app and I'm getting between 5-7 satellites and accuracy between 9.2-15.1 feet, from within the car. I'm running the latest OTA updated radio, with Hboot 1.16. Also, with Sygic Aura, got a lock within 5 seconds...I guess it depends on the location and radio version.

hey guys, I want to go s-off but i'm having an asian rom, which means I need to flash it with Goldcard and a EUR RUU.

Hey thanks alot dude, I wanna type in chinese, that's the thing, just the keyboard will do. I have a SouthEastAsia rom but theres no option for chinese handwriting :(

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brando56894:
It's possible but its not a full blown OS and its kind of useless since desktop GUIs usually don't scale down well to smartphone size. The way that it is done now is you setup a chroot environment and boot up ubuntu in the chroot and then use vnc to connect to one of your local ports. AFAIK its slow.as hell.

[Nexus S General] smalltownbird:
Ok, so I switched to Sprint from Verizon for the Nexus S 4G. I know people with Evo's and they have never complained about signal issues in my area. So I get my NS and immediately I have signal issues. Can't make phone calls or send text and forget about surfing the internet. It was so bad that the battery would drain in 5-6 hours because I couldn't get a signal. I am still within my 30 days so I am considering switching to the EVO 3D or even going back to Verizon. I have tried updating to all the newest PRL's and none of them made any difference. That is until I switched to the hybrid Verizon PRL 00001. I now get great signal, can connect to 3G wherever and have had excellent battery life. My fear is that if I keep the phone I will no doubt go over the 300mb supposedlt unlimited amount of data roaming. How long can I do this before Sprint finds out? Should I even try exchanging the phone, or just switch the to 3VO? I love the NS4G, but obviously it is no good to me if I can't use it at all and when I can use it I risk being kicked out of contract. I've read threads on Sprint doing it, but how often does it happen?
[Nexus S General] smalltownbird:

Keep your nexus or go to another carrier. You don't want the 3d
[Nexus S General] eagercrow:
Why doesn't he want the 3d?
[Nexus S General] Maximilian Mary:
Personally, I decided to hold onto the phone, and patiently wait for a fix. They are aware of the problem. The phone's just too darn good to switch to a different one.

You're on your own with the prl hack. I just got kicked off a different carrier for roaming too much, and I wasn't even using a custom prl.
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
Yea, let me re-phrase that. I wouldnt trade my Nexus for a 3D. If there isnt a fix for the radio I'd rather have the OG Evo than the 3D.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
That makes no sense... How did you come up with this conclusion on a phone you probably have never even held?
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
Well, my experience with HTC devices is ****. Thats what I base that conclusion on. I did say that I wouldnt trade MY NS4G for a 3D. I think the 3D is gonna be a P.O.S. and most of the bugs with the OG Evo have been worked out.

I just sold my Thunderbolt because it was the biggest pile of **** phone Ive ever owned. I expect more of the same from the 3D. Sorry if this offends you...
[Nexus S General] dmora01:
HTC + Sprint = frustration
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
No, actually you told the OP that HE doesn't want the 3D.

The 3D is a pretty awesome phone. Major upgrade over the Evo 4G. It's worth taking a look at. No major downsides to it, really. The 3D is gimmicky and destroys battery life, but it's something you can leave off all the time and never think about.
[Nexus S General] smalltownbird:
While I appreciates "everyone's" opinions I was more looking for answers on sprint dropping people for data roaming. I've used 200mb in a week and that is not downloading anything
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
No one can really answer your question. If you're roaming basically all the time, you will probably get a warning at some point. If your Sprint service is that bad, it's probably for the best anyway - gets you out of a contract and lets you move to another carrier/.
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
"Yea, let me re-phrase that. I wouldnt trade MY Nexus for a 3D. If there isnt a fix for the radio I'd rather have the OG Evo than the 3D."

This ^^ is actually what I said. And whats the point of a 3D phone if you have 3D off all the time? I would really rather have the OG Evo. Or the Photon, which will be a way better phone than the 3D.

I actually know someone that has had the 3D since Monday and also has a NS4G, and he 100% confirms that the NS4G is a better phone. He is a member here but I wont throw him under the bus. Hopefully he will see this thread and share with you guys some of the things he has shared with me. I did ask him last night via Gtalk if his opinion of the 3D had changed since he initially told me he didnt like it. His exact words were, "no, I just cant make the jump".
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
In what way could the Evo 4G be considered a superior device to the Evo 3D? Dual-core CPU, a real GPU, twice the RAM, more onboard storage, higher resolution display.
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
Never said it was superior.
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
I suppose I was assuming that you would consider the phone you prefer to be the superior phone.
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
No. I usually would but in this case I'm going with the one that will piss me off the least.
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
What about the Evo 3D would piss you off? What about it is inferior to the Evo 4G besides the fact that you can't put a custom ROM on it yet?
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
ehhh i kind of agree, not that its inferior or the evo is superior, but that its just seems gimmicky and well for lack of a better word.... useless. the whole 3D is a lot of smoke and mirrors. i would rather know theres solid hardware inside doing a solid job....like say reception.

some would say filet mignon is a superior cut, i on the other hand would prefer a nice ribeye any day. now im stavin. hey earl...........
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
You would need to be pulling gbs of data while roaming consistently to be tossed
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
Dude. I give up. You always want to turn personal opinions into debates. I was sharing my opinion, that's all.
[Nexus S General] jonnythan:
You're giving a very strong opinion to someone on how to spend hundreds of dollars. I was exploring your reasons for making such a strong recommendation.
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
not for nothing but your not giving any opinion at all which is what the op asked for, instead youre nitpicking someone elses opinion
[Nexus S General] DrHero:
I recently moved and note have awful sprint coverage. I called them and they sent me a airwave, mini sprint cell tower. The device its free, but having it hooked up costs 5a month. I get 5 bars at home now.still with the extra 5$, it is cheaper than the other carriers.

I called them on monday and had the airwave on wednesday.
[Nexus S General] jdh10475:
You probably will incur no charges, Sprint will probably send you a letter telling you to find a new carrier months down the line. I'm sure there is a fix in the works as we speak. Hang on to the NS it's what I say VZW is to expensive.
[Nexus S General] kilik64:
how do you see how much data roaming youve done?

the data roaming option on the phone mentions incuring lots of charges because of it, that not the case?

Reason I ask is the sprint service around here is hit or miss, and is really crappy in the shopping area near my house. Any way to make the data connection run off the verizon towers in my area?
