Lol oh no no. nobody would get my money 'til i had a rooted phone. That trade bit sounds interesting though. Even if I bought my phone off craigslist and am on a non-data family plan? They might be biased against me lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] rommy0515:
If you bought your phone off Craiglist it will show up in Tmo's "Device Model Warranty Tool" as "Warranty not verified." (Unless the phone had never been used before, then it should appear as a new device.) Unfortunately, that status will make it impossible for you to exchange your phone through Tmo, you may still be able to get support from HTC depending on the age of your device.

If you have the PHP insurance/warranty it's another matter, then you should be able to exchange the phone regardless of its age or origin.

(I'm a former Tmo rep btw)
[G2 and Desire Z General] wilnotdie:
The php insurance is nice. I've replaced a few phones, I just hate how Asurion verifies their authorized account users. They never see me as an auth. user!!

A few years back, it was no problem, but now they seem to be much more strick or something...

Sry bout my rant lol... maybe you can get an independent insurance plan and go from there :)

Goodluck.

Hi,

I have rooted my wildfire and installed some roms.. now with my current animos-sense rom i couldnot get my network signal properly.

Can i backup the radio from my stock rom so that i will flash it afer installing custom rom?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
If you are using a standard GSM HTC Wildfire, you can get the Radios from here, since they are common for all GSM Wildfire's across the globe.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bittu4u4ever:
thanks for your reply..

does radio get updated when we flash a custom rom??
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bx19:
No. Custom roms won't touch the radio and hboot.

Only stock roms (= RUU or OTA) will overwrite them.

Also you can update radio from recovery or from S-OFF hboot if needed.

Is it just me or does Facebook show up three times when clicking share. I click to share a picture... it shows Facebook, Facebook and then Facebook - HTC Sense...
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
you sure you dont have a 3rd party facebook app installed

Mine just shows Facebook and Facebook Sense
[HTC EVO 3D] ktrotter11:
Should be just two, assuming u gave Facebook for Android installed
[HTC EVO 3D] chrischoi:
Sounds stupid, but I am 100% sure it's just the Facebook for Android by Facebook and then I'm logged into the HTC Sense one.
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
OS BASED - Facebook - just Syncs contacts

FACEBOOK ANDROID APP - Facebook for HTC Sense - syncs your live feed, calendar, contact

if you have a third you installed another facebook app
[HTC EVO 3D] chrischoi:
I'm not as stupid as you think I am. Even if it was another Facebook app... it would be named Facebook xxxxx... Something and not just Facebook.

[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
Never said you were, have you tried a battery pull too see if anything changes?
[HTC EVO 3D] chrischoi:
Yes. It's a duplicate, because they both open up the Facebook for Android app.

One is for pictures and one is for videos? WTH!?

[Thunderbolt Android Development] ruddogg:
reporting back from last Friday...been running this ROM all weekend... Last week I was having issues with the battery draining down to 15% within 9 hrs...(running on brightest display)

I switched to "auto-brightness" for the weekend, & I can happily say that the battery is lasting much longer. I guess I just can't have the brightness setting all the way up.

I am still having a slight lag with exiting SMS when I hit the "back" button though. It hangs there for a while before exiting. Anyone else seeing that?

Otherwise the ROM is fast, slick, & stable.

I'm using the MR2.5 radio.

mr2 is the better radio. No reboots here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dabuck:
Try applying the Dusk BAMF Skin and then change your wallpaper... you don't get the rosie that I showed, but you should get the clear lock screen that you're looking for.

I'm lost.. this seems to be well understood by most but not I. Is this a Froyo Rom that requires a gb radio? Someone posted saying the mr2 radio wasnt working on this and be got blasted for putting that radio on this Rom but the op says to use just that.. the mr2.

Why aren't the appropriate radios linked in any of the these Rom posts to clear up any confusion?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SirBindy:
The MR2 and 2.5 radios are both Froyo and Gingerbread compatible.

Previous versions of BAMF v1.x were MR1 only.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xgonzox:

I don't see it in adrynalyns obligatory radio post and searching on my phone isn't the greatest thing in the world.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] bolt_of_thunder:
Yes you can. Use the files for 1.7. I'm using landscape, remix batt, and transparent aosp dialer mods without a problem. Had to search for a rosie settings apk on Google though so I could map the right button on the launcher. Make sure to download and flash the remix stock resources file though, otherwise the mods won't work.

So I flashed the MR2.5 radio a couple hours ago, can already tell that I get better battery life with the MR2 radio. So, once I completely drain this battery to really test it out, I'll be switching back to the MR2 one. Weird how a different version of a radio can change things.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] lexxon87:
Just as a followup to my post saying that my backups were not working in Titanium Backup properly...

I was using the built-in version to 1.8.6, which I believe was 8.1.1.1(?), while the newest was 8.8.1.1(?)...something like that. Well, obviously these versions treat backups somewhat differently, because upgrading beforehand made everything work just fine.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Scooter Scott:
I don't recall anyone mentioning this but I have a few problems I'm noticing:

Google talk will not launch. When I click on the icon, it acts like it's opening up then goes back to the screen I was at. Tried a force stop on the app and reopening it and still nothing :(

When talking on the phone I notice that the proximity sensor isn't picking up my fat head and the screen is actually staying on. What's even worse is when I pull the phone away from my head to hit mute or hang up, I can't...it's like the screen is actually locked. :mad: I can then hit the power button to turn screen off, then again to turn back on then I can hit the buttons like normal.

Yes I did a full wipe and clean install using the MR2 radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jbdavies:
What kernels is everyone using? I was using the stock kernel, but then switched to imoseyon Lean Kernel, cause someone said they were getting 18+ hours using that one. But, I'm not getting the same battery life.

So, what is everyone else using and what is their battery life? Oh, and what Radio?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Kc0r8y:
Turn off auto sync, the GPS and 4G and your battery life will go up a lot.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jbdavies:
But I want those. :( Hahaha. And... I'm on Wifi right now. Still not as impressive as some other people are getting.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Kc0r8y:
people are getting great battery life because they have that stuff turned off. If you like to have all that on and get good battery life buy an extended battery. That's what I did. I can go all day with everything turned on.

I installed the stock resources and the Dolphin browser rosie icon however I no longer have the rosie settings app in my app drawer? How do I restore it or get it back?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
I'm using the MR2 radio with the stock kernel. I have it OC'd to 1.4ghz but I am using the conservative governor. Haven't tried the powersave governor yet.

But I'm getting pretty decent battery life. Been off the charger for 2 hours with minimal use and i'm still at 94%
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Sorry, I'm an idiot. I saw your answer a couple posts down with the link to the rosie settings APK.

Let me try that out, but I'm sure it will work fine!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Worked like a charm.

Only complaint I have is since we have to use the default HTC skin the buttons are a little off. They overlap the "skinned" buttons beneath the icons.

Wish someone could figure out how to fix that? But ultimately I guess it isn't that important.

However I must say I am very pleased with 1.8.6. I've used a few other roms and this is by far the smoothest and least laggy.

Not to mention the new MR2 radio seems to be working much better, especially with GPS locking and battery life. I can see why the OP would use this as his daily driver phone...

Thanks Team B.A.M.F.!!!

(I'll make a 6-pack valued donation later this evening)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Just to let everyone know I was able to flash the other add-ons without using the stock resources (battmod, red icons, blackout market, blackout MMS, CF dialer).

The only mod that required the stock resources was the rosie mod that allowed me to change it to Dolphin Browser. Flashed the stock resources, flashed the Dolphin rosie zip and then dowloaded the rosie-settings APK from the post listed on the previous page and I was good to go!

I'm on BAMF with MR2 and haven't flashed another kernel, but wifi is the problem with my battery life. Without it, the battery life is great if I just use 3G.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
So turn off your Wifi? Mine is always off unless I am at home.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jbdavies:
It's usually the other way around though. With WIFI you get great battery life, unlike using the data network. So, being on WIFI and having bad battery life, is uncommon.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jschecter:
Weird. I had that problem when I was using GingerRemix w/ MR2, so that's why I switched to this. Froyo seems pretty solid for me and I'm still using the same MR2. I know it's a little bit of a pain, but try doing a clean reinstall/setup of everything to see if that fixes it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Superthrust:
Ive also been having sd card mounting issues. Also, is it normal for my phones battery to fall faster than a 747 with no engines? I checked a task killer and running processes and there are alot of my apps open right now that usually arent and its killing my phones life.

Took it off the charger at work during lunch, 99%. An hour later, i went from 99 to 61. Whats up with that maybe? I turned everything off like gps, wifi, even almost all my synching! Never was this bad on stock for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Vbosch1:
I had the same problem as you with the Rosie overlap. You can apply another skin. It will fix your rosie, but you will lose your clear lockscreen... Decisions, decisions.... think I'll take the clear lockscreen.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Vbosch1:
I'd try one of these two things: Charge to 100% and then clear your battery stats. Sometimes it takes a while for your device to learn it's capacity. This does seem a bit high though...

If this does not resolve it, do a FULL wipe. Don't restore data.

Also, don't use a task killer. Android does a great job managing this by itself.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] msmall82:
Agreed, task killers are garbage and eat more battery than they save. Do a clean wipe, install 1.8.6 and the MR2 radio. You can restore your apps from Ti Backup (I did).

Also if you don't get 4G in your area make sure you set your phone to CDMA Auto PRL as it will eat up battery search for a 4G signal.

Keep your wifi and auto sync off and you should be fine.

My phone averages about 4% per hour with normal use.
