[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HalosGhost:
Do you have access to a computer with ADB setup, or better yet, do you have an extra sd card laying around that you can just plug in in place of your main sd card?

If you have a computer with ADB setup, then you can boot your phone into recovery rather than HBOOT (I think it's vol-up+pwr?). But if you have a spare sd card, then that would make your life much easier as you could use HBOOT then.

Keep me posted. All the best,

HG you should change your name to OG because youre an original gangstahhhh!! the whole switching the sd card worked like a champ! loaded up the new kernel on the spare sd and flashed, shut the phone off and put my original sd back in and now shes purrrrrrin like a kitten.

many thanks. ill be doing both thanks in your sig.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HalosGhost:
I'm glad my idea helped you out. It's always a good feeling to have problems fixed quickly huh?

Donations and Dropbox referrals are always extremely appreciated, sir. But even hitting the "Thanks" button is kind enough :)

Happy flashing! All the best,

Someone wants to buy my gf's phone but it has clockwork installed with a custom rom. Is there a way to install the original 2.2 rom without the long procedure? Is there a very stable 2.2 clockwork rom with very small modifications?

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
You can install original (rooted) stock 2.3.3 ROM, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1140862
[Optimus One, P500, V General] newklear85:
I was looking at that but the replies were somewhat negative... I'll give it a try! Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Shrug. You wanted stock with very little modifications. The only mods there are root + a2sd support. (Oh, and removed FB+Twitter junk).

(There is a nandroid backup of 2.2.x posted somewhere here, but I cannot find it and IMHO if you want stock ROM, it is pointless to flash 2.2.x now).
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
Connected to the htc charger the phone wigs unless touching the phone while touching the screen. Connected to my vibrant charger it works fine without issue,no need to ground it.

I know people said connected to charger it has issues but its specifically the stock one (atleast in my case,hopefully you too) and the charger itself causing the issue. So get a new charger. Htc will have to make new ones cause these are junk.....

Crazy ,anyone know how or why that's happening inside the htc charger?
[HTC Sensation] chrisizzle492:
I had the problem with.the charger if the phone was on its back laying somewhere and I tried to use the Screen it would go crazy. My replacment charger comes in on Monday. Hopefully they have fixed the problem.
[HTC Sensation] phantomevo77:
Doesn't happen here. Everything acts the way it should and yes im using the charger and cable that came with it
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
I think they made a bad batch.. cause that's just wack ..
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
Its what made me exchange my 1st phone. No issues with the new charger.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Yep, I have no issues while charging the phone with the stock charger/USB cable.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
No issues so far. Charger, no charger, holding it, not holding it. Never any problems with screen responsiveness. But I've only had it 3 days, so we'll see. Knocking on wood while typing...
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Dude, you might actually be on to something. I have come to the conclusion that whether anyone believes it or not. The touch screen issue IS NOT a software issue. I really do think that over time, the device is holding on to static electricity which is causing the issues. My old phone that was doing this would stop after I pulled the battery for 1 hour but would start to act back up as the day went on.

Plus, this is the first Android device I've used where the battery starts acting up if you don't use the cable included with the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] mpjohns3:
I had the exact same issue. I use my MT3G charger now, as I like the shape much better. I hate how the Sensation charger sticks out so far from the wall.

You exchanged the whole phone for a bad charger? That seems..... excessive
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
It had touchscreen issues in general. The whole charger thing just put it over the top.
[HTC Sensation] sly5789:
I can't believe it

I too have this problem but not with the stock charger. Since I got my phone I have been using the same old no name charger with no name usb cable. Until I came upon this posting and tried to unlock my phone or type something while it was charged it would go crazy. I even touched the phone as in the video and tried to use the touch screen but it didn't work as normal. Now I have to try and use the stock charger to see if its the phone or the charger it self.

**used the stock HD2 charger and cable and no problems**
[HTC Sensation] SNK180:
i use the usb cable from a nokia phone to connect the sensation to the pc and i don't have any problems. haven't tried using it in the charger but im not going to test my luck now lol.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
I was thinking this exact same thing.... About the static electricity...

Another weird thing is that even when you plug in the wionky charger, the first few swipes are golden, then about 3 swipes later, wonky.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
I've used my old BlackBerry USB cable to sync it and have had no problems. It's really surprising to see so many people with problems...I was actually going to return my Sensation because of the WiFi death grip issue but I don't want to run the risk of getting another one of these issues.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
Maybe the stock causes issues like mine and another charger is fine .... Just checked again my stock charger makes it crazy..

And don't exchange for WiFi issue.. they all have it. Well the three I've had..
[HTC Sensation] platinumandroid:
Haven't had any issues with the stock charger but I mostly use the Nexus one wall charger due to its awesome length,imo It's the best charger htc has provided with a device:)
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
And yea, what's up with this two foot charger junk..lol. I feel like I'm humping the socket using it while charging..
[HTC Sensation] enoch861:
I can certainly say that it the problem affects more devices than you think. I'm not totally sure what causes it but you guys should see my zune hd.. It will literally control itself. Play music by itself, go in and out of menus (super fast by the way). If you guys want a video I can upload one if I can find it... It freaked me out when it first started to happen keep in mind, the zune is perfectly normal and works fine. The charger was one of those cheap chinese stuff.. So it could be a quality issue. I have yet to have the problem on my myTouch 4g though. I had it in a vibrant, hd2, I think even a G2 .
[HTC Sensation] platinumandroid:
lol
[HTC Sensation] pityr:
My Nexus1 used to do that on some chargers. Had to turn the screen off and back on to get it to clear up. Figured they were just slightly out of spec chargers and tried not to use them anymore.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Try turning the WiFi signal up to max performance and throw on a Gel Skin Case. After doing this, my Sensation no longer has the WiFi deathgrip.
[HTC Sensation] umd:
The known touch screen issue happens when charger is unplugged too. Do you guys think if we use different charger for a long time, will it be ok then?
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
I believe so. I'm gonna use nothing but my vibrant charger and see how it goes...
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
I'm using the HTC charger and cable and have no touchscreen problem.

Just as a test try turning the charger around in the plug. It's not polarized so either way will work. Just a thought.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
I'll give that a try. No, didn't work. Still wack ..

Wonder if some are just worse than others because some happen after a while. So maybe over time it causes issues.
[HTC Sensation] 2real2141:
I have a nexus 1 and a mytouch, and I frequently have issues with my touch screens when charging, I always chalked it up to the custom roms I use, until I retured the mytouch for a new one (probably refurb) and it continued. But when I use my htc charger on my phone it does it but on my wifes vibrant it doesn't. But yet usb charging via computer or xbox doesnt seem to affect my screen.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
At the end of the day, I'm not using the HTC charger even if its not the cause. I think its a cheap piece of cheap plastic **** anyway. It just looks cheap and it sticks out from the wall to far. Not to mention, HTC scimped hard core on that short ass cable.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
Exactly, im staying far far away from that crappy bug ridin hardware ..
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Agree it's junk :eek:, and the mini usb pins could even be bad! I had to use brute force to plug it into the Sensation...:confused:

I'm sticking with my nice long N1 charger! :)
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
I too use my Nexus One charger since the day I got the Nexus but I've always used one of my myTouch chargers for travel which look just like the HTC charger that came with this phone. I've never had a problem in the past but I haven't tested this charger. Seems like a grounding issue in the stock charger.
[HTC Sensation] crisisinthecity:
Your stock charger is jacked then. Mine is perfect on the stock charger.
[HTC Sensation] chrisizzle492:
Got my replacement charger and USB from HTC today and everything has worked flawless. No erratic movement or not identifying button presses. Just thought I'd keep people informed.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] nmyeti:
Hello all. I created a quick fix for a minor annoyance when using ADB on Ubuntu. It seems that at every reboot the adb server would not start as root and as a result i would end up with an error having to do with insufficient privileges when trying to run an adb command.

I created a fix; this might not be the right way to go so i'm open to suggestions, but so far it works for me.

I created a script to quickly restart the ADB server as root.

The script contains the following commands

adb kill-server

cd android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools

sudo ./adb start-server

adb devices

Notes:

1. If adb is located somewhere else on your computer, modify the 2nd line to match that location.

2. It will ask you to elevate your privileges when you run it.

3. I placed the script in my home folder and gave it executable permissions so that i could run it by simply typing "./adbrestart" without the quotes from a freshly opened terminal. I recommend unzipping this into your home folder for that reason

Again, this is just a method that works well for me, if someone has a better method of doing this, please feel free to chime in.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWadle:
What the easiest way to uninstall Samsung apps that normally cannot be removed (e.g. Social Hub, BBC iPlayer)?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue265:
The easiest way that I know of is to root your device and then use Titanium Pro to freeze the apps you do not want. By freezing them, you can unfreeze them later if you notice any problems. You can also uninstall them with Titanium as well depending on what you prefer. Its not a free app though but definitely worth it.

Being able to freeze apps like wi-fi sharing which cause serious drain are definitely worth it to me

[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
I don't think so. Anyone?
[Acer Iconia A500] Tam the Bam:
As a work around this I backed up all my stuff with Titaniun Backup then copied the Titanium Backup folder from the SD card to the external SD card. Means that after any messing around with CMW or a new rom you can still have access to your apps.

Hope this helps...

Anyone attempting to reflash a genbook 10.2 beware if you flash wrong rom you will brick the netbook for sure,you must have correct fdwn files to restore the system as of this posting i have not been able to locate them since augen is now out of busniess.If you brick it you will have to open up the unit and short out the rom chip several times to get computer and fwdn program to see the netbook doing this too much with short out the pins which are very very soft material and will mash together causing a perment short circuit.You can only do this about 3 times before this will happen so make sure you have all the fwdn files ready to flash before using this program

Were gonna have to email the app devs and let them know what's up.
[HTC EVO 3D] Eat it iPhone:
I had a few apps that did this...TD Bank, Spare parts, and 1 or 2 others. The spare parts option fixed all of them. Some apps are probably not programmed to take advantage of qHD, and thus its the devs fault, not HTC/Android. Maybe im wrong on that count, but thats my guess.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sim-X:
Spare parts kinda works for some aps, it didn't fix blackjack and kinda fixed family locator. The map came up full screen and then after you try and do a locate it gets all jacked. Hopefully these aps will get fixed soon.

[HTC Sensation] chrisizzle492:
Ok so coming from an hd2 the GPS wasn't that fast but the sensations is equally as slow. I've use it with GPS status but still slowwwww. And I'm not sure if this is normal but the GPS turns off everytime the screen does. I remember my hd2 didn't do that. Sooo is there a setting that I have messed up or should I exchange it? Or are they all like this.

And one last thing. When I'm using Google navigation the voice navi is really low when playing music.

Would a hard reset be good right now? And is there anyway to sync phone data and apps to a computer so I don't have to download everything again?

Yep lots of questions. :)
[HTC Sensation] tigerz0202:
gps for me is supa fast , locks in 5 sec or less , unless im inside a metal building and its still locks in under 30 sec, i did do a hard reset on the phone the second day i had it though
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Mine is also fast, typically under 10 seconds, often under 5. That's inside my house.

GPS Test does lose the lock when the screen blanks, but it has a setting to keep the screen on. When I'm driving with Google Nav the screen stays on.
[HTC Sensation] chrisizzle492:
Yep hard reset did the trick. GPS under 10 seconds now. Too happy. And the phone feels a lot faster. Probably just placebo but I don't care :D
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I am coming from a G2X and that looked pretty quick, usually within 10 seconds but the Sensation is locking instantly. This is when I'm using Google Maps as I have not used my GPS for anything else.
[HTC Sensation] nugzo:
That worked for me too. But then it happened again. Did a regular restart, fixed it. Next trip, same day-No lock, clear day. Restart, worked. I dont have time to do a restart every time i need gps. A lot of the time i 'm entering destinations while driving, restarts are unacceptable. I'm seeing some strange patterns developing with this phone. It seems to degrade quickly for a lot of people. Factory restore doesnt help much. I hope HTC has an update soon.
