[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrDeke:
Does anyone have any idea what will happen to the built-in Hotspot app on Verizon Thunderbolts after they issue their "software update" to disable it on 7/6? Am I correct in thinking that rooted phones don't receive automatic software updates?

I realize there are other apps that can be used to tether or hotspot on rooted phones; this is more out of technical curiosity. I wonder if Verizon will also implement something on the network side which would prevent the "native" hotspot/tethering features from working.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrainfartEris:
Supposedly it will be taken out or altered by an ota update. Or at least that's what I read a while ago about it. I could be wrong though. Wait for others to chime in and see if I'm correct or not to be sure.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgldrgdlr:
My guess is that when the app starts, there will be a prompt telling you that you will be charged for the service, press ok to continue. Again,only a guess, but that seems like it would be the most logical way of doing things.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shawn haz root:
What about third party thether apps like Barnacle?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidJoe:
I doubt they are going to push a software update to disable this.

My Guess is Verizon will remove the "MOBILE HOTSPOT PROMO" feature from our accounts, and then when you tether you'll get directed to the Verizon Page asking you to subscribe...

Kind of like how its been on 3G phones, when you subscribe to the hot spot feature, they just add it to your account to enable you, remove it to disable it...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wxjunkie:
My rooted Thunderbolt (with a 0625 LTE radio) and CM7 RC1.3 fails to tether unless I dial the date back to May. This happens with any of the non-Verizon tethering apps. Does anyone know a workaround for this?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike.s:
Call Verizon and sign up for the tethering feature.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wxjunkie:
Thanks, Verizon representative.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Hi all,

I have the Missed it Widget on my SGSII and I really like it but I have an issue I just cant seem to figure out.

No matter what I do or what size widget I choose I CANNOT get the widget to show like this...

0 missed calls / 0 missed messages / 0 missed emails

I can only get it to show vertically like this...

0 missed calls

0 missed messages

0 missed emails

I have seen pictures where the widget is "side by side by side" but I cannot get it to show up like that.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or what I need to do to get it to show on "one line"?

Thnaks...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mark2222:
In the output format / customize you need to replace [nl] with / i think. Haven't tried it but looks like it would do what you want.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busta_87:
mark is right mate instead of [nl] put / by going into missed it app>output format> customize
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Thanks Guys... I will give this a try tonight and advise if it worked... :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Well... This was part of the solution. What you nees to do is go into output settings > customize and replace the [nl] with whatever symbol you want.

From there you go into the setting for what apps you want monitored and change the words so that it all fits on the screen. Mine is now in the proper order i want and reads as follows...

0 calls ~ 0 texts ~ 0 gmail

I hope this helps anyone else who had the same problems I had. If so... Click the "Thanks" button... :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mde00341:
Hi Guys

Sorry to sound like an complete idiot. Everytime i use a widget for an app it just comes up with the parameters. I cannot seem to get it to display anything else. Really annoying me.

If any1 could take the time to explain that would be fantastic :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imi36:
Hi Guys,

i hope someone could help me. I've got a strange problem in "missed it" widget. i hope my english is good enough to describe it :) unread sms & missed call counting is so far ok, but the unread emails (via touchdown app) won't be calculated correctly. i thought i set everything fine:

- monitored element parameter as "mail";

- output "[mail] [mail_str]",

but after i received e.g. 2 mails in a row, will be shown 3 unread emails. i think it will be recounted and added for the existing number. after receiving 3 mails, then 6 will be shown(1+2+3) and so on...

Someone has a same problem or solution? tnx
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
I know there are threads like this out there, but none of them fitted my questions...

Hi,

in this post, seo posted some ported sense 3.0 apps and widgets for Sense 2.1 GB roms.

I tried to install some of them and got MMS to work.

Then tried to get Rosie and widgets, but they wouldn't install directly, so i started playing around with ADB.

i think adb is fully set up, i am able to pull apks from /system/app.

problem is, i am obviously unable to push, install or uninstall system apps via

adb push

adb install

adb uninstall.

this was when i tried remounting (with remount,rw etc.) and was able to "rip off" rosie.apk (i know it worked as it wasn't there anymore later on :D) but still was unable to install apps (with the effect i hadn't got a launcher at all.)

latest step was creating a signed update.zip, didn't work, recovery just restarts.

anyone help? someone got experience which may help me? i went through about 10 or 20 guides and am kind of desperate right now as things just dont work :(

thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JieeHD:
Pull me a recovery.log when you try installing the zip, and I'll have a look for you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
S.O.D. proudly presents.... recovery.log!

Here it is, i attached my own update.zip (rosie-signed.apk), maybe you could have a look at it as i don't know where the fault may be.

greets SOD
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
I would already be happy if you managed to solve the update.zip issue (would help me with other updates) but the main prob is adb noch really working, seems like some system part is blocking this?

my hero was originally a t-mobile google g2, created goldcard, rooted, custom recovery, new radio and custom rom.

a few details:

device HTC Hero (T-Mobile Google G2, the black one :D )

rom Salsasense RC2 (at the moment...)

recovery CWM 2.0.5.7 (think so, but im sure i got the latest)

sd 2gb
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
ooookay, tried to edit existing salsasense, resulting in non-functional rom rebooting into recovery.

JieeHD may you probably cook Rosie.apk and HtcClockWidget3d.apk in SalsaSense RC2 and upload it just for testing? much better would be to give me the keys to do it myself *still learning* :D

i tried it but the situation above occured^^ maybe some md5 thingy?

greets, SOD
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JieeHD:
Fixed your update-script, new line for each command is needed :)

/facepalm
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroobach:
How's your progress going?

I messed around with the files 2 from the treat and they won't flash error 0. Tried to fix that with.different binery and gave me error 7. If you can make at least the king lockscreen with weather app working than you are the man :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
brick after flashing modified rom.

push to /system/app didnt work.

flashing restarts recovery.

jieehd's tip of single lines for every command doesnt work, same as above.

error 0 = apk is not made for your device/rom, wont install.

error 7.. dunno, think its not matching binary or parsing error.

files from my thread? as post above says one is a log and the other is defect^^

i doubt weather will work as its eating HUGE amount of resources. if u want this lockscreen, maybe try salsasense, has got a 3.0 alike lock...

holidays now, wish good luck in coding :P would be happy if u found a solution :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
Got some questions.

1. You want WHAT? And what is the purpose?

2. In how far is this related to this topic?

3. If u give us a path to this file, why do u ask where it is? Maybe try dowloAding some random rom (probably some ruu) and do extract & search..

4. Are you really willing to contribute to this topic? I dont see the point of posting this.

5. Obey forum rules. If u have got a question, post it directly in q&a section, not in some random topic or directly explain the connection to the actual topic.

Greets, s.o.d.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SummonerOfDeath:
what don't you know? may we help you? whats the purpose of all these posts? :(

i think i'll give it a last try next time wenn i got salsa sense installed and either find a solution instantly or give it up, as noone is willing to support me and i can't do much more with my poor coding skills.

seems like we have to admit that hero's dying and i have to wait for my contract to end so i get a new phone.

greets, s.o.d.

A finger to all of us with locked bootloaders

Found this on facebook
[HTC Sensation] secano:
ROFLMAO!!!!
[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
LOL. I so want to use that for my Facebook profile image and post on the HTC page.
[HTC Sensation] JWhipple:
I had one of these for my Samsung Vibrant, nice and thin, adds a little splash of color without any real additional weight and is only 1-2mm thick. Not really much protection if the phone is dropped but then again it's better than nothing at all.

I just ordered the 4 pack so I could pick and choose colors (I'm fickle like that) based on my mood. $9.99 for 4 of them and free shipping - not bad at all!

[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
I wanna see what the front looks like. Why do they not show the front?
[HTC Sensation] JWhipple:
Doesn't really cover any of the front - it clips on from the back only.
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
So does it cover like the barely there or? If it covers identical to the barely there case from case mate, I'd be down to order some.

When is yours gonna arrive? We need some pics!

P.S. Thanks for the link.
[HTC Sensation] JWhipple:
{EDIT}

I just found this Ebay ad with the same cases showing the front of the phone in them - make sure to click to make the photo "supersize"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...ry=20349&_trksid=p5197.c0.m619#ht_2214wt_1139

Not sure about the barely there case, never had one. I literally had just ordered it before putting up the post, so, I figure within 10 days... At $2.50 each I am not going to complain much :-) ... There's a photo of the same one I had for my Vibrant in this post, shows the front but there's no phone in it:

[HTC Sensation] r3awak3n:
These are cool but they don't protect the most important part in this phone which is the bottom. That's the only part that is not part of the outter shell and if it breaks or scratches cannot be fixed for cheap. I still might get one.
[HTC Sensation] JWhipple:
I bought mine for one simple reason - they look good and are not commonly seen.

Plus I can tell my girlfriend I bought them to match her purse or shoes LOL

[HTC Sensation] Xcor3:
Just ordered one, thanks for providing cheaper ones.
[HTC Sensation] Elchemist:
you're welcome.

Is it just me or does the dark blue, red and purple colored cases seem 'metallic' while the other colors are matte?
[HTC Sensation] zim2dive:
Just got mine and I like it. Very minimalist. LOL, I'm not sure it does a lot other than help to distinguish my phone from my wife's :) But for $2, that's ok :)

Had to make a small set of cuts to expand the area around the USB port (to work with 3rd party micro-USB).
[HTC Sensation] Elchemist:
Hey zim could you post some pics of the modification you needed to do to the usb.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] zim2dive:
Very minor.. I copied the pic from the ad, and drew in RED (on the green case) the small section where I cut to make the opening larger. thankfully we had some funky cutters here at work (kinda like wire clippers, but with a 45 degree angle at the end) which made the clipping easy.
[HTC Sensation] Elchemist:
Thanks for the info!

Will have to see what I can find to do the same mod once FailurePost here decides to deliver my case...
[HTC Sensation] leighaus:
hey guys. i have one of these cases. ive had it on for 2 days and barely taken my phone anywhere and when i have it was like i was cradling a baby around.

The case has already split at the bottom between the hole at the back of the case and the base. They are quite brittle.

They look cool, but are very weak and useless for protection.
[HTC Sensation] Elchemist:
why do you treat babies so harshly? :D
[HTC Sensation] getrdy:
Mine is doing just fine. I've had it for 4-5 days and not a single scratch or crack . As for the top and bottom of the phone I have cellphone protection plan :D
[HTC Sensation] :
Can somebody post some personal pics? And by personal, I mean personal. ;)

Seriously though. Will somebody post a few of their cases?

[HTC Sensation] bigmachine:
i also got one of these mesh cases for my sensation today... pretty good looking case..although i agree that the top and bottom part are left unprotected..but still...the case has a nice feel to it and it looks cool even though it covers the tricolor design of the back case.
[HTC Sensation] zim2dive:
2? weeks later and I noticed the thin piece above where I cut has broken off (ie. the "top" of the USB port is now open to the face of the phone).

Again, for $2 I can't complain, and the 'case' is performing the function I want.. protecting the back from scratches, and making it easy for me and the wife to tell our phones apart.... so I guess I'm using it as more of a 'skin'.
[HTC Sensation] micspabo:
I cannot get excited about them either. I guess I will stick to the original one.
[HTC Sensation] farfromovin:
I just wish someone would make some different colored battery covers. Kinda hard with the antenna's integrated, but that would be ideal IMO. While I like minimalist cases, I don't prefer the holes in the example listed in this thread.
[HTC Sensation] zim2dive:
At $2 per case, I ordered 3 more (after my 1st one chipped).. already had the 1st one from this second batch have a piece break off. I'm pretty gentle with my phone, so I going to have to withdraw any support for the mesh case. Once my 3 replacements all chip, I'll be on the hunt for something less brittle.
[HTC Sensation] sbihue:
The reason there is no front facing pic for this case is because this case does not cover the edges of the phone. It is easy to get the edges nicked despite having this case on.

Besides, the mesh is a great way to get in dirt on the rear of the phone. Had something like this on the HD2 and the pores would often pick up stuff from the pocket etc and get clogged.
[HTC Sensation] pwasad1:
I got these cases in a few weeks back and I've come to the conclusion that these are just gonna be my "going out" cases haha:D. there's definitely no protection to them at all but they look pretty so I'll just use to match me when I'm out on a date or something but for everyday use i'm sticking with the seidio or the otterbox.
[HTC Sensation] RazyB:
Hi,

I bought a black one a few weeks ago and found the same thing. I've already nicked the front edge. A corner (of the case!:eek:) has also broken off I.E. pretty brittle.

Looked (and felt!) cool but have already switched to a (crappy looking) flip-cover leather case for now giving plenty of protechtion for my baby.

I'm keeping an eye out for a mesh case which wraps round the phone a little more.

Hope my 2p worth helps :)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerokimg:

but widgets or the whole TouchWiz can be ported, and when the first custom rums are available you can choose the one you like most so there´s no need du deal with the blur softwore if you dont want to.

Looking for one that has integrated charging.

I know I can get one that is just like a car dock, that i just stick it down to the desk but want something a bit more classy
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
There doesn't seem like there is. I couldn't find any on ebay. But when I had my Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, it had the charging/usb port on the side as well. And what I did was get a case from ebay, I think the seller was in China that made a portrait one but it had a cord from the base that you would need to plug into the side everytime you dock it.

I have G2X on Bootloop after installing Clockwork from Rom Manager (Not NvFlash, shhhhhh) and installing CM7, stuck on Cyanogenmod skateboard logo animation. Power + volume down boots into stock Android Recovery 3e, with options scroll-able but not select-able.

Is it possible to flash recovery rom from pc and so on? More importantly, have I perma bricked my phone?

*I did a search on the topic but could not find a definite answer. Posting for clarification.

I'd say your best best would be to try flashing recovery using the nvflash method, then try a full wipe and reinstall your Rom. Good luck!

[Galaxy S II General] plazzmex:
Hi People.

Sorry if this isn't an appropriate forum to post this.

I am trying to connect my SGS2 to car radio through USB cable to access music files.

First, there was a problem to even connect the phone to the radio and the car told me that there is an error connecting to the device.

But after turning on USB Debug mode on the phone, now I can connect (Although after 2-3 attempts, why ???) to the car and it finds all my mp3's on Internal SD.

But now there is another problem. Because the car now uses the SD card (As Mass storage), any application that trying to access it is denied.

So when I'm trying to use Waze for example while listening to music it writes me that Waze can't access my SD card.

Is there a workaround to be able to use the SD card from both the car and the applications at the same time ?

I'm using Lite'ning Rom v1.4
[Galaxy S II General] TheGhost1233:
Search in the market for dual or multi mount.
[Galaxy S II General] plazzmex:
Multi Mount SD Lite - doesn't work.

All is the same as it was, when I mount the SD the applications can't access it.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong ?

The notes say don't use android mount feature.. what does it mean ?
[Galaxy S II General] plazzmex:
Anyone? It's really annoying that I can't hear music while navigating..

Please help..

P.S - If I'll buy external SD card for music, will be there an ability to mount only it, so the internal will be for the applications and the external for the car radio to mount ?
[Galaxy S II General] plazzmex:
Ok, the question is still open.

Is there any real solution, like patch or something ?

Because both Multi Mount and Dual-mount doesn't work.

If I use those apps the car can't even find the phone as if it is not mounted. (With the built in mount feature the car finds the phone on the 5 try or something..)
[Galaxy S II General] skatiaris55:
any answers as follow up? i got myself a dension gateway 300 and when i try to plug in my galaxy s (2.3.4) i have the same problem.. multi mount sd manages some time to do the trick.. but its very random..

i am thinking that the android system is "fighting" with the multi sd app. and it manages to mount the internal storage or something like that. ]

does anyone have any hint?

cheers
[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
My guess is that the Dension only mounts the first partition it sees (i.e. the /sdcard directory). At least that's what I've seen with memory sticks I've tried to put into my Gateway 300 -- I haven't tried mounting the SGS2 since I have all the same music on a dedicated 32GB microSDHC card & USB card reader.

Anyway, if the Dension has mounted the /sdcard directory, you should be able to access the SD card through the external_sd directory.
[Galaxy S II General] skatiaris55:
Actually it does not seem to mount any of the partitions. if i check at the source menu it says "no usb".

when i use "multi sd mount" app i can sometimes get it to work (setting the app to mount only the external sd) but thus is only once every ten tries. i cannot do it at will...

it seems somehow that the android mass storage software and the app are "fighting" somehow. (of course the android on its own does not succeed).

may i ask you to check if you can mount your galaxy on the dension? not many have this configuration so your feedback would be valuable.. thank you in advance

cheers
