[HD2 General] the_scotsman:
Is the T8585 keypad ribbon interchangeable with the TMOUS keypad ribbon?

I have a spare TMOUS HD2 with a broken ribbon, but can only find T8585 ribbons on eBay, so just need to know if they are the same in that respect.

Thanks
[HD2 General] jianC:
They do. I replaced my Tmous phone keypad ribbon with the one I bought from this seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...97751&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_4163wt_1139

I installed it and it has this strange blue/purple tint but I think it looks pretty cool :P

You have to carefully peel off the metal piece that comes with it because it will cause the bottom part of the lcd of the phone to stick up ~.5mm. If you try to take off the old metal piece from the old keypad ribbon and use the attached piece of metal, the keypad will end up being .5 mm too low and the buttons won't work.
[HD2 General] the_scotsman:
Thanks for that, appreciate it!

I couldnt see any others, so I ordered one anyway, but it's good to have someone confirm.

Looks like it's all packed in there pretty tight...but pulling it all out is half the fun :p
[HTC EVO 3D] vulcZ:
Loving my new phone! It's wicked fast and it's just plain badass. I've removed what ever bloatware I could, but in all honesty I wish I could remove Sense and go to CM on this phone :) I can only imagine how fast it's going to be! Sadly it'll probably be a long time before things like 3D get ported into CM (WiMax, anyone?) but I think the wait till definitely be worth it.

This phone is fast, but you have to admit, there is A LOT of crap on it, and most of it is HTC related. Don't get me wrong, it all works, but I'm a simpleton in that sense (no pun intended).
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
I think it it funny that people only care about how fast there phone moves. The EVO 3d moves fast enough to do anything you want to do without a hiccup and has the wonderful overlay of Sense.

What else does CM7 give you? I ran it on my EVO and it is not like it will make your EVO 3d a step up from what it is now. It just brings you back to basics. If it is basics that you want, why not just buy a Nexus 4G. I am sure CM7 runs pretty fast on that.

Maybe when we have CM8 with ice cream it might be worth moving to as it hopefully boosts some new features for us and the CM team will probably have it ported before HTC gives us an update for it.

Right now I say Sense 3.0 ftw!
[HTC EVO 3D] chefdave12118:
Right on. I'm a hugggggggeeee cm7 fan for my evo 4g but this 3d has wings.... EVEN with sense going.
[HTC EVO 3D] bronxknight28:
Yea if the phone goes any faster it'll run things when you think of pressing it lol.

But Running CM7 will let you just load billions of things on it at once with the extra space
[HTC EVO 3D] xenx:
As is common practice.. the more power the device has, the more the devs use.

Sense 3.0 is a HORRIBLE display of overindulgence. I know people will like it, and that is all well and good. Not everyone needs all that extra RAM and storage the phone came with (to cover for Sense). But, I can't wait to get rid of Sense. I don't use it, except for the integration that I can't disable.
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
I can't wait until we get optimized builds of the stock rom. Maybe a little themeing too.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Amen. This. It is pretty, but most of that 'pretty' is, well, pretty functionless...and that out of 1024mb of RAM I have ~225mb free with nearly nothing going on? Sad.

Sure, sense is sleek...kinda...but it's a bloated sloppy hog of a shell/ui/launcher. LP/ADW rock ass on this phone, I just wish I could ditch all of the pointless cruft Sense drags along....not to mention some of the more advanced tweaking the custom AOSP roms bring to the table, esp regarding performance and battery life.
[HTC EVO 3D] dtblair24:
I am pretty much all about change. Its fun to see different looks on the phone, that's why CM7 was soo refreshing for my OG EVO. Then I bought the Nexus S and loved the pure google experience, and now I am appreciating the Sense 3.0.

There is definitely quite a bit going on with this sense 3.0...but it is hard to imagine it ever having issues as far as performance is concerned. So I am in no rush whatsoever for CM to make it's way on the EVO3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Leoisright:
Cm is awesome. But just wait my friends. Once we get root, we will get this baby optimized, clean out the crap on here and then she will really take off. Also, getting the sensation and kingdom ports on here will be cool.

I know virus is already looking at stripping out the sense to give it the turbo boost most are looking for...
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
What is the point of a sensation or kingdom port?
[HTC EVO 3D] dsarch21:
yeah, i thought i liked SENSE, but I miss my DECK and CM bad. I even resorted to running spb shell for now, I couldn't take all the senseless crap
[HTC EVO 3D] Scotty_Two:
I love CM. The latest updates as fast as possible plus custom tweaks that make the phone that much more easy and usable. Sense isn't too bad just yet as it's still new again to me, but things like the unlock/answer screen when a call comes in and the god awful notification bar and curtain make me hate it. Can't wait for CM.
[HTC EVO 3D] xenx:
I'm indifferent about the notification bar/curtain... It's not bad.... I like the CM styling better, but only slightly.
[HTC EVO 3D] Andrew486:
I switched to this bad boy from a Hero running AOSP Froyo, and I realized how much I missed sense. On the hero it was terrible, when it couldn't run anything, but with this phone I love it. So intuitive, and the music player and everything is great, I sure don't see myself dumping sense 3.0
[HTC EVO 3D] Zorachus:
Don't understand why you would buy an HTC phone to throw out Sense and go with generic CM ?

If I was gonna run CM 7.1, for sire would not buy an HTC phone, these phones are so thick and bulky and poor battery life. Even with custom kernels and different roms its better, but I would get a Galaxy S 2 a milion years over the EVO-3D for CM 7.1

I buy the EVO for Sense #1, and wait for the best Sense based Rom made by Myn. It is way better than CM.

Sent from my EVO-3D waiting for Myn's ROM
[HTC EVO 3D] xenx:
Those features come at a price, one that I'd rather not pay. I'm glad you enjoy em, I just can't wait to shed em.
[HTC EVO 3D] pkmusic:
I think tried CM7 and I enjoyed it but I can't wait for MIUI to make it or even MYN and Evoking to put their touch to it. That is definitely worth the wait.
[HTC EVO 3D] xenx:
I bought the Evo 3d for the community. Depending on how things look at the end of 30 days, I might return.. but that isn't a big chance.
[HTC EVO 3D] Leoisright:
Just because the rosie is pretty much the same doesn't make the apps and all that goes with it the same. Willing to bet people will flash and enjoy. Like all other roms. Breeds or custom roms are much better as you already know.
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
Am I the only one who doesn't see what the big hoopla is about CM? Not trying to troll or anything.
[HTC EVO 3D] xenx:
It's light weight, community driven, and gets the job done. It's not the right option, it's just a popular one.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Hardware build quality, community support, carrier availability. Screw sense. I love HTC but their DOS-Shell blows.
[HTC EVO 3D] Cubfan99:
You know... I will stay with Sense if devs improve it. Need the buttons on the notification screen and a custom Rosie (the default is worthless). A setting for quiet hours would be nice, and we need an unlocked wireless tether. Oh, also a setting to override the stupid paged app drawer. Then it's perfect for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] SoraX64:
I think it'll be interesting to see how something like CM will work on this phone. The 3D capability isn't the norm since this is the only phone out with it so far. So I assume that most ROMs like that will lack 3D effects.
[HTC EVO 3D] Zorachus:
I respect CM. Just saying if i was gonna run CM 7.1, I would rather do it on a Galaxy S2, because TouchJizz UI by Samhung is garbage and needs to be deleted, but the hardware on the S2 is a beast and the Super AMOLED+ is amazing.

But Sense is what HTC is about, and a sin to not use Sense. And there are some top notch killer Sense based Rom's for the EVO 4G, very high quality, and super fast and smooth.

I bought this 3VO, waiting for a Sense based rom.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Raa_1:
Hi All,

Just a quick one - I'm not able to use the built in browser to open https websites. Normal websites work fine.

Wasn't trying anything in specific, even Microsoft (https) didn't work!

Is this unsupported, or do I need to change an option to make it work?

Cheers,

Raa.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Are you sure it's not your carrier? You can even Microsoft didn't work, you mean HTTPS doesn't work in WinMo? I'm able to browse HTTPS sites no problem, but my carrier provides an open internet cxn.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Raa_1:
Works fine in WinMo, so it's not carrier related. If yours works, its probably something else then, but thanks for the heads up.

Not using any special browser or anything?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Well I prefer Dolphin browser, but I have used HTTPS sites on the stock browser.

Any particular websites you're having issues with?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Zehlek:
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. Does anyone have an apk for theme Chooser? I can't seem to find it in market
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] deeren:
you can't just install the application unless you run a rom designed to use it. the reason is that the whole framework-res.apk of your phone has to be heavily modified in the way the theme chooser work.

the apps can be found in the general android theme section of xda. there are several versions there i believe
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Zehlek:
Thank you. I didn't know I thought it was just an app.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] what25:
OK. So I made a backup of my debloat froyo state using Clockworkmod so that I can try out those gingerbread roms. I didn't like it, and tried to restore back to where I was.

So here's what I did. I wiped everything, flashed the debloat froyo rom, then performed a restore action.

Now, when I boot my phone, all the apps I used to have are missing, and all I get is the 'System UIDs inconsistent' message, with a button saying 'I'm feeling lucky'. Is there any way I can fix this?

Also, if there is a proper way to restore a backup in Clockworkmod, what is it?

Thank you.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Generally that's bad news :(

You can try to google around or look on xda (in forums other than the thunderbolt) for people who have encountered that, but generally it means you have to start over with a fresh system.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] what25:
Ok. So I am looking at the screen as it does the restore, and it seems to stop midway in the 'Restoring data...', step, where it looks like everything is running fine, and all of a sudden I see the clockworkmod menu. It seems to be an incomplete restore. Is there any way to fix this?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] je300zx:
After I had that happen I had to flash a new rom so I just upgraded to Gingerbread.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajuabju:
I also had to do a fresh install (ie, deleting data & cache) after getting this error randomly this morning.

Still in the process of redoing everything on my phone, doh!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sublimejosh2000:
I changed the Build.prop file. It now works correct for the screen turning off while in a phone call.

mot. proximity.delay=200

mot.proximity.distance=30

Please, use "Prop Editor". It is a very good prop edit program. It is much easier than trying to copy a prop file using an explorer... I am not sure why no one has mentioned this app...

Josh..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LayzeeEyez:
Root Explorer has in-app text editor if you use that. Anyways, thanks for this!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sublimejosh2000:
I hope that means it worked for you :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LayzeeEyez:
Haven't tested it, but I appreciate all contributions to the Atrix :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sublimejosh2000:
Cool,

Let me know if it does. It is working for me, but I would like to know if it does for others.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsdmarin:
I am getting my first WP7 phone next week and I was wondering how to install a .crt file in WP7. I was unable to find any information in the forums for WP7. In Windows mobile 6.5 I installed the .crt file on the phone with activesynch, ran the file through File Exp and it installed the certificate. Does anyone know how this is done with WP7? Thanks:)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
You just email the Cert to yourself & than open the email & download the cert on your WP7 device. Once downloaded, click the shield in the e-mail to install it. I guess the main question would be why though as at current, I think the Chevron Unlocker is the only tool that required installing a custom cert.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsdmarin:
I am not sure exactly what the certificate does... But my company requires that it be installed in order for us to rec emails through Microsoft exchange. I think it has something to do with password protection on the phone and also to allow the emails to synch. I guess i will have to setup my personal email first download the file install then setup my work email.. Thanks for the quick reply!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Ah okay, never thought about that. Well I can tell you a cert is a form of authentication. In this case, your companies email service must require the cert to prove that is allowed access. It's like a drivers license/ID/Social Security card/etc., but for applications/servers/service/etc. My main reason for asking was that in WM, we had to unsign the DLL/MUI/EXE's to edit them & than resign them & have the cert we used to resign them installed on the device so it'd recognize the DLL/MUI/EXE. This is how we changed the topbar icons for example. If you didn't sign the file, WM wouldn't load it or allow it to run.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mshen11:
I am not sure if this is an inspire problem or a hero problem so I am cross posting:

I have a HTC Hero rooted and is running Wireless Tether. The signal can be picked up by my laptop and can be used without a problem - this means the Wireless Tether application is running without a problem.

However my HTC Inspire cannot pick up the signal. Does anyone know why? The Inspire is rooted and has CoreDroid7 (this should be irrelevant) and can pick up all other wireless signals around the house/in the neighborhood. When I manually add it, it says "not in range, remembered"

is it a hardware limitation where the hero is broadcasting at a b/g/n spectrum?

thanks in advance

edit1: the hero is emitting wireless b signal, so the inspire should pick it up

edit2: i ran wireless tether on the inspire just for kicks and the hero picked it up (that means i know how to configure the app - which is pretty brainless... just pick default options and change the SSID). this also rules out a signal issue on either of the phones
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeyfamily737:
The Hero only broadcasts an AdHoc signal.....Some devices pick up the signal some devices don't and it most certainly can be rom specific. For example I tether to my Nook Color all of the time. When running CM7 on the Nook it picks up the AdHoc signal just fine, when running Honeycomb I actually have to change the wifi supplicant within the rom to get it to find the AdHoc signal and disregard all accesspoint wifi signals.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:
some roms do support adhoc wifi so i would look around in the inspire forums
[HTC EVO 3D] sniperkill:
There's a thread somewhere around these forums about a SDcard speed read fix that increases the cache size of your sdcard. It works on the EVO 3D. If you go to (sys-devices-virtaul-bdi-179-0 ), in "root explorer" select open in text editor, and it will say 128, if you change it to 2048, or 3072, you can increase the cache size of the sdcard, in turn, your phone will read the sdcard contents quicker. This is only a temp fix, as soon as you reboot, it will go back to its origional settings.

The guy"brainmaster" made this fix. But I can't find his thread. He has a script that you put in sys-devices-virtual-bdi-179-0. That makes the new cache size stick after reboot. IDK if you need root to accomplish this tho, but i did the temp fix and it sped up my sdcard..
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
There's an app int market that does this automatically on every reboot too, but we can't use it, until we have root :(
[HTC EVO 3D] dangerruss:
Well what's the app so we can find it
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
Sorry, I didn't have it handy when I posted last..... It's called SD Speed Increase. The dev is Diego Stamingi. I used it on my Hero and I still use it on my Nook. You set it up once, reboot and from there on out it changes that sd cache file on every boot......but like I said it requires superuser permissions.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
I have all of those zips by brainmaster. I used to have an hd2. Won't do any good until we have CWM.

I have that as well. I'll remove it to see if there's any difference in performance. I'll give it a day or so.
