[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechActivist:
I plan to root my phone to install Cyanogenmod 7, and I've gotten the general hint to NOT use Visonary r14 for rooting.

My HTC Desire Z (Bell Canada) has firmware 1.84 so I need to downgrade the firmware.

However, this tutorial I'm following;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1055581

says I need to have the following CID to skip the Gold Card process.

My CID is:

(bootloader) Device CID is not super CID

(bootloader) CID is BM___001

(bootloader) setting->cid::BM___001

(bootloader) serial number: HT0AMRV03380

My CID (BM___001) is strangely similar to HTC__001.

Obviously, they are not the same CID, but is it possible that I will be able to downgrade without the Gold Card? Or is there an easier method which I have not come across as yet?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slapshot30:
I had the same exact CID too, but I downgraded through a goldcard anyways. I was a bit confused by that CID also...

[HD2 General] drakepayton:
I recently received a new HD2 i the mail (wore out the hard keys on my last one ;)) and i quickly proceeded to remove winmo ASAP. The same way I've done a thousand times. Android (sense of eclipse) finally boots and every time i try to download an app it says the download has failed. EVERY TIME!:confused: I've tried re flashing the rom numerous times, re flashing cwm, magldr, task29 all with the same outcome. I also tried 3 diffferent sd cards and formatted 2 of them. This is a rom that was working fine on my old phone and i even tried a different rom (typhoon cm7) with exactly the same problem. I've had andoid on my phon since the sd days so i'm not really new at all this, but I'm not an expert so if somebody thinks this sounds familiar please help. Thanks for your time.:)

[HD2 General] malybru:
Hi,

I can't say I've had problems with every downloaded app,but certainly a few.

As you can see from my sig,I'm using the same ROM.

If any app failed to download,I just repeated the process several times,and it evetually took.

The other thing I tried,was switching from wi-fi to data,or vice-versa.Then it worked.

:)
[HD2 General] drakepayton:
thanks for the reply

I've tried WiFi and on edge. used the WiFi for a long time so i know its not that, and the browsing works fine.hmmm
[HD2 General] malybru:
Hi,

What I meant was,if it didn't download on wi-fi,try downloading it on data.

:)
[HD2 General] drakepayton:
Unexplained

Ok, so I used winmo for the entire day yesterday. Then this morning I tried flashing android one more time just for the heck of it. For no apparent reason it's working fine, apps downloading and installing perfectly. Now I'm afraid to flash any different roms, worried it might happen again. I did everything the same as always so I'm not sure what was wrong be fore or if it'll happen again. Hmmmm...
[HD2 General] fred_up:
It is a common problem. You need to make sure that you set up / login to the gmail account before trying the market. The solution I received is quoted at the bottom of this post.

Here is the solution given to me when I couldn't download from the android market. I went from a working SD Android version to the next version (when the market wouldn't download). The only difference was that I had set up the gmail account then went onto the market with the first version but went straight onto the market with the next version and then logged onto gmail.
[HD2 General] drakepayton:
Thanks for the reply

Thanks for your input. I am having trouble figuring out what was wrong and what fixed it. I know that's not the issue here because the I would try apps in "my apps" (meaning I was signed in) in the market and also ones I've never downloaded before. Also maybe its gierbread or just the two roms I was on but I couldn't even open the market till I signed in with Google. I know cause after flashing a million times I was anxious to try the market quickly and forgot to sign in. It would then re direct me to the Google sign in. Strange:confused:

Hi all,

this headset sound quite nice: A combination of mono-headset on the ear and a stereo headset with regular earbuds!

Does anyone have it who can tell us about it?

Cheers, Jan

[Galaxy S II Accessories] js931:
yeah i had that, but i didnt like the volume rocker (very unresponsive).

otherwise its nice, but the samsung headset has the nice feature which allows for using it like a "normal" bluetooth headset. thats better for driving in the car etc!

anyone with experience of the HM6450 ?
[Droid X General] akaruna:
well i was looking around through th system/apps and found this little thing in there. i think it controls diag mode. not to sure considering i just started teaching myself android programming. maybe some one could create a brute diag mode or something like that to make things easier to flash this phones service provider. just my opinion.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyed:
So I updated my MIUI rom yesterday to 1.6.17. Everything worked fine, and I got one of the beautiful lockscreen to work (the five way one). It was a bit laggy, but it worked.

But now in the morning, I reboot my phone, and when I try to unlock it with the new lockscreen, it freezes! I tried opening one of the apps instead of unlocking, but that also didn't work. I tried waiting, didn't work. It's odd because when I move the unlock button (you have to move it to one of the icons, 4 apps and 1 unlock icon), it isnt laggy at all. But when it hoovers above one of the icons, and I lift my finger, it freezes. After that, the screen won't turn off, except if I press the power button, but then it wont turn on. When I press the power button along with both the volume buttons, it vibrates, sometimes more times quickly in a row.

I've also tried wiping cache and dalvik cache, also didn't help.

I'm running MIUI 1.6.17, with the stock 2.3.4 Jame Bond kernel. It has been told to me that MIUI runs best with no custom kernel, but I really wanted Voodoo Sound. This kernel worked fine.

I've seen one guy with the same problem.

What should I do?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordManhattan:
Yeah, i had the same problem It's a bug in the new lockscreen. Don't use it until it's been fixed.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanX:
I have been trying to get vyprvpn working following the instructions here.

Whenever I try to use the vpn, the phone tells me that it has connected but my internet connection no longer works. I can't visit any websites, I just get a "Web page not available" error. it's probably not a dns issue as I can't visit the sites using their ip address or url.

The problem occurs with wifi and 3g.

The vpn settings work fine on my PC.

Any ideas?

Hi

my galaxy s2 is acting weird if i plugin the power from AC charger my phone gets freaking hot and even gives a plastic melting scent... also the battery takes like 24 hours to load to 99% (with the device turned OFF).. so i think i zhould check my warranty :)

Now the thing is, i flashed it with lite'ning rom (which claims to not give the yellow triangle, however i have got it)

i bought a usb jig and receiving it monday... the question now is: how do i get the phone to stock rom so samsung would think it had never been rooted or flashed?

Many thanks!

Greets,

Marco
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
One if its branded restore branded firmware two if not branded restore a stock older Samsung rom . Three remove any apps that use root .

You may need to check on boot remove yellow warning triangle and set custom rom counter to zero using recovery jig .

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhymesmoore:
I tried flashing the new CM7 ROM (cheers J) and I turned it on after backing up, wiping and flashing absolutely everything I had to. It went through the normal startup and then after the "Sony Ericsson" logo it said at the top of the screen "Loading custom kernel. Bye!" It then showed the CM7 logo and spent around 5 minutes booting up. I then got the WLOD and my phone just died really ever since then. Every time I turn it on, even when plugging it into the charger, I get a vibration and then the screen gets stuck on the "Sony Ericsson" page and won't change (I left it for 5 hours like that and it didn't change. Also, no matter how much I spam the back button, it will not enter xRecovery. I am slightly worried as I am meant to be going abroad this Wednesday and will definately need it then. Can anyone help me? :confused:

I was wondering if I missed something here, I saw some people's sig's saying they where running 2.3.3 on there SGS4G's and it said there kernal was bali 2.1 I saw a couple peoples saying that is there really a way yet to get bali on the new GB I thought you had to flash it thru cwm which gb doesnt have.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Eric-1987:
From my understanding it doesn't even support 2.3 yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:

I use sgs kernel flasher to flash the kernels. so i think they would have to use this on GB because there is no cmw yet. its in the market

Bali is froyo source. Not gb source. Plus, partitions are encrypted and will only work with the UNMODIFIED STOCK kernel.

Companies have to engage in lawsuits once in a while....believe it or not...once in a while they are actually just.

However, Apple seems to do it once a day.

And it always seems to be in situations like this.

I'm with xhausx, it wouldn't surprise me if they put this in and then try to sue others for having "stole" it.

U guys most have forgot apple hired a bunch of people who helped make android almost a year ago now, and guess what one of those people was the guy who basically came up with androids notification system. Google needs to stop being such pansies and sue apple. this is diffenetly stealing.

Android remains my OS of choice for various reasons.

Blah blah blah...listen...it's not that the two OS's can't co-exist.

In fact, it has NOTHING TO DO with the two OS's to begin with.

It has to do with Steve Jobs' attitude toward everything.

Everything he does is "revolutionary"

Everything everyone else does is "copying"

and worst of all

He think he "knows what's best" for people.
