[HTC EVO 3D] beyond882001:
Don't know where to start with this thread lol. Everyone has a right to a opinion, but it seems a little unfair. Nokia has been known for their cameras and IMO cameras has been the one flaw in HTC's image. The pics people are posting up are incredibly nice, given they were taken with the 3d. If your pics are not coming out great, play with the settings, get a app or too and talk about the great pics. Side note After you take a picture in gallery, click edit and there are about 15 stock filters which make some pictures look amazing, or better. Don't complain about pictures looking bad when you just reach into your pocket and take a quick pic. Adjust settings and take a couple. Pick the one that YOU like. Delete the rest. Camera isnt the best we know, adjust to it. Or go buy a Nokia. Again this is my Opinion. Don't mean to hate on others
[HTC EVO 3D] brownhornet:
HTC phones have never taken good pics.. it is what it is.
[HTC EVO 3D] jes24cap:
Why not ask for a 24x zoom out of you phone. Lol
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
Well you need to pay $1000 for a phone. Because right now you get what you paid for.
[HTC EVO 3D] JoshuaAlba:
I took this near Central Park yesterday, looks a lot better in 3D.

I uploaded the file too just in case if you wanna check it out on your phone or TV.

[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
The pics in the sample 2D gallery on the E3D looks exactly the same.

My ''xDU4L C0R3 SH00T3Rx'' shot you down in 3D!
[HTC EVO 3D] heygrl:
Low light on the Galaxy S on the Strip..

I didn't need to learn or adjust any settings. I opened the camera app, snapped the picture and it looks just fine.. a lot better than the one above which looks terribly noisy with tons of artifacts and saturation. I have another that is much closer to the one above but it is a bit blurry.

EDIT: Here it is anyway

don't kid yourselves.. HTC's cameras still are below the competition, moreso on the Evo 3D because of the sacrifices to have the ability to take 3D pictures.
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
I do. I'm a professional photographer! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
No offense but those pictures are not impressive at all..out of.focus and.blurry..the evo.3d packs alot of hardware into a pretty affordable package..off.contract the s2 will be like 150 bucks morebthan the 3vo..I'm.happy with my camera and can take pictures better than the ones u tried to downplay the 3vo with
[HTC EVO 3D] dfin13:
Actually, I think there will eventually be a phone that allows the user to live forever. So that, a better camera, and killer battery life would be enough to satisfy me.
[HTC EVO 3D] dfin13:
N9 is $600, unsubsidized :D Not that I'd own a Nokia, but just saying it is obviously possible to produce a phone that takes great pictures. Back in the flip-phone days, the camera was acceptable as an afterthought, but hopefully we're approaching a time where the camera is as important as the other bits.
[HTC EVO 3D] heygrl:
It looks WAY better than the Evo 3D's pictures. I said they were blurry, I didn't have a steady hand. But the color accuracy is far better, not nearly as overblown and the noise levels are 5x lower.

^^ Indoors - It's a camera phone, but the HTC Evo 3D couldn't take a picture at this level which is not amazing by any fathom of the imagination. But with an HTC phone it would be much worse. Hell the some of pictures OUTSIDE with the HTC Evo 3D in broad daylight have more noise and artifacts.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
I guess we will agree to disagree ..not saying the e3d camera is the best but the pictures you put up just don't look good to me..I have taken nice pictures with my camera..look at the picture I posted early..do u have a e3d ?
[HTC EVO 3D] dca1970:
Both mine and my wife's evo 3d's take horrible indoor pics compared to my evo 4g, and iphone 3g. There is definatly something wrong, it shows a clear pic for 1 sec, then switches to a blurry pic. only indoors.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master&Slave™:
Wussup guys?

Im coming from the vibrant forums as a themer.

I had CM7 on my vibrant and in oder to flash anything else other than MIUI i had to odin.

Same process here?

Im on CM7 Right now btw.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
no. if the rom is cm based, just flash it over cm. if its not cm based, wipe data(factory reset) then flash the rom.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] WarrLordd:
Well a little while now my phone been reacting on it's own. Keep going haywire as if some sort of bug/virus infected the phone.

Also i notice sometimes when i connect the USB it chimes like a bird for several minutes.

I been looking up to see if anyone has the same issues and seen that some call it ghost screen and only way to get rid of it is hard mod or replacement.

But i only seem to get this issue the day i install a process manager which had 3 processes which i notice that sort of vanished from the menu. So i'm not sure if this has cause the issue with the phone.

So i went ahead and installed GoT and CyanogenMod which boot up nicely btw.

But still i get the USB Chimes going crazy once in a while and half the screen is is no responsive . I can't even unlock the phone using touch screen. Cause the sec i swipe to almost the middle of the screen it stops. But at least the random ghost touch thing is gone i think.

Anyone know my issues? Before installing i did wipe/reset/everything.

Could it be my firmware is corrupted? But doesn't that get refreshed when i install the got/mod?

I wish to get my phone re-installed to a fresh status like go back to a fresh copy of 2.1 to see is that works how do i do this?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
That was how my phone acted before I lost functionality of part of my touchscreen.

To go back to stock, flash a stock sbf using rsdlite. Sbf's can be found here. Use the non service versions.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] WarrLordd:
Ok will try it out as soon as i get home from work.. Will update on post.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] WarrLordd:
Ok i did it but still half the touchscreen is un-responsive same side as before but while playing around with the button it seems to lagg a bit also like sometimes it won't let me dial :(

What the hell is wrong with this phone :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
Exactly my problem. Is it the left side right up to the top? I cannot use the back button nor any icons on that column.

It is a hardware problem.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DannyDroid:
Sounds like you need to replace the digitizer?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Caustic68:
I had my touch screen going crazy. Couldn't use my phone at all no matter what rom. Flashing it back to stock didn't work either. I put it in the oven as per other thread and it's been working over a month now.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gerasalus:
Dunno if this is relevant, but had same issue when i was using cheap but extra small chinese charger
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Abazel:
It is relevant, because if I use wall sockets without grounding (@countryside, par example) it goes nuts while charging. Same sh*t happens when connected to USB, no matter if the PC/laptop is plugged in a grounded wall socket.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Zer0edge:
I'm going through the same problem. There is like a line in the screen where nothing works, it's around the 5th home screen page (I can't select it). Since I have this phone for almost two months, I'll try checking with authorized support.

[Verizon Droid Charge] triton302:
I have GC 1.8.5 installed and removed the email app associated with it, installed the Ozemail.apk that is stock on the Charge because I prefer the push email feature. However, it's still themed with the brown and tan ugliness.

I tried using some apk editing software on my computer but I can't figure it out. Can someone do a gingerbread green and black theme for this email app? It would match with my Gmail and Android Market, that would be awesome. I'm thinking about having the top bar gingerbread green, the dates being green, and the rest black with white lettering.

Thank you in advance for whomever can do this!

However, you can always use Missed Message Flasher, it will do what you want, just make sure to set it for 100ms duration or something around that, otherwise it will also flash the screen, not just the buttons.

[HTC Desire S] opumps:
hi guys, this problem was solved, unexpectedly.

my DS was bricked by an accidentally freeze and the immediately battery pulled-out.

so, the eMMC-chip(marked as SAMSUNG104, KLM4G2DEJE A001, FDAE15PC) was completely dead, and i made a replacement with a new one(made by Sandisk serial:SEM04G), and then everything goes on good.

for more detail, you could click

[solved]BRICKed: inside eMMC's dead, with E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

im updating the ENG-HBOOT to get the full permissions on "fastboot mod".

1. when i type: dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18

dd: writing '/dev/block/mmcblk0p18':[B][COLOR=red] I/O error[/COLOR][/B]

3.can fastboot do a same job to upgrade the HBOOT?

[HTC Desire S] pastynko:
I was unable to update via fastboot, but you can try it.

The command was "fastboot flash hboot filename" if I remember it correctly.
[HTC Desire S] opumps:
thanx man.

here's the prompts

fastboot flash hboot hboot.img
sending 'hboot' (1024 KB)... OKAY
writing 'hboot'... [COLOR=red][B]FAILED (remote: not allowed)[/B][/COLOR]

the remote: not allowed is caused by the current HBOOT, and the updating is about to get the "allowed" permission.

anything else i can do? heeeeeelp
[HTC Desire S] pastynko:
Which version do you have atm? Are you S-OFFed by XTC clip?
[HTC Desire S] OdiemanSAM:
Hey opumps... I'm not sure I can be much help. With the methods I use, being for the G2, is mostly run from hboot bootloader. In order for it to work I had to fool the phone into thinking the PC10IMG.zip I use is newer than the version of everything on the phone. I do this via misc_version or the dd command to swap in the misc.img onto the misc partition. Not sure how the Desire S is. But if I were to lead you in a direction I would say find a stock PCxxIMG.zip and in linux unzip it... trust me it works but must be in linux for the files not to be messed up. Then swap out the hboot.img for the eng-hboot... just take out the old one and put in the eng one. Hboot.img as filename should work just fine... if the hboot is an nbh or whatever it shouldn't matter... it should pick up the img during update and flash. Once that files is in the directory add all the files back into a new zip. Rename the new zip to your PCxxIMG.zip. put on the root of the phone and reboot into bootloader. It should pick up the file and... well you tell me. You can take all the rest of the files out and only leave the eng hboot and it will flash what you have in the zip. In order to do it other ways I needed a program called gfree to remove the security fom the hboot.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wryun:
Not sure if this belongs in the Dev section or here.

Anyway, attached is a screenshot of my homescreen. I am wondering how to edit the Google+ widget to give it a transparent background instead of the dark bg.

I know how to edit photos and apply a transparent bg, etc., I am just not sure how to edit the widget itself. Is it a matter of getting the .apk and extracting an image to edit? I used to edit icons for my iOS devices, so I assume this might be the same with .apk files ...

Any tips would be helpful!

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
I'd like to know too. I tried to edit the widget background for the honeycomb music app to be semi-transparent by taking the trans widget background from sense music widget.

Honeycomb music apk had a file called appwidget_bg.9.png so i renamed the one from sense to that name using 7zip, but new apk wouldnt install for me.

Not sure if any of this helps you. But I'd like to know too.

In the apk, there should be a folder called res or resources, i forget. Pretty sure relevant file is in there if I remember correctly. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martijua:
I've modded the app.

instructions:

- install the app from the market (you already have it installed so you may be able to skip this step)

- remove the widget if its on one of the screens

- use root exprlorer to copy the file I posted to the /data/app folder

- set the permissions (rw-r--r--)

- readd the widget

that worked for me.

A couple of week ago i tried a HTC Sensation. I installed some apps, then I reset the phone and gave back to the owner.

Now I bought a new one and I want to install some apps I have installed, but in the market they are marked as "installed" and I can't install them on the phone.:(

The market settings is still showing the old HTC and not the new one.

How can I "reset" the market, in order to make it to recognize my phone?

I don't want to create a new google account.

Thank you, but it seems it doesn't work.

I can only modify the name and choose between "show" or "hidden device"

If I choose hidden device and return to the market it still show "installed" on the app and if I clic on, it say that there is no device associated with the account.:confused::(

dumb question but im new at this. help please:)

[General Questions and Answers] rive-noob:
I solved my problem:

I reset the new phone, then I logged in in the market and now in the market settings it shows the old HTC Sensation (switched to Hidden device) AND the new one!!

When I choose an app that I installed in the old Sensation, it is still marked as installed, but if I clic on it, I can install in the new one, so, I think the problem is solved.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convotutor:
hi,

im trying to flash a custom rom onto my vibrant.

but i've got a question regarding the phone starting stage.

i got the phone from craigslist and it seems the phone is slightly modded:

-it's got a "overstock" logo when you first start up the phone.

-when i boot the phone using the pressing of two volume keys and power button, i get "clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.3- voodoo lagfix" in red color.

What i want to ask is do I have to get rid of these mods first before i flash custom roms to prevent future problems? If so, how do i get rid of these mods?

if i dont have to get rid of these mods first, do i just follow this guide - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849028

also, i can flash custom roms without rooting right?

thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
the phone is already rooted for you, to verify you should see the superuser app in your app drawer. Its a skulled android head. You can install any custom rom that already had voodoo enabled without disabling it. If you like you can disable it by going to the voodoo option and disabling it on the next boot. I wouldn't worry about it because most of these current roms have voodoo. What rom were you planning to flash?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convotutor:
hi thanks for the reply.

but i don't think my phone was rooted cuz there was no superuser logo.

so i did root it using the superoneclick method.

however, im in trouble now cause i accidentally formatted the internal sd thinking that'd disable the voodoo lagfix. (the guy i bought it from said he applied the lag fix- i wanted to disable it cause i'm trying to flash the team whiskey 1.3.1 and the site guideline said it'd brick my phone unelss i disable the lagfix- stupid i know)

But i did the phone backup using the rom manager and i restored, but my pics are still not there?

am i screwed here or can i recover somehow the pics from my phone using the backup file?

thanks!

Hi,

If I follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056334 and root my phone, is there any option to put back the stock kernel i had? because like CF says, this kernel have bugs, so maybe i'll want to put it back to stock.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgn9000:
Yes, but the main idea is to put an official kernel and the latest is the best one (kf2). You keep your root access with a very stable kernel and if you combine with modem kf2, you will have a very good configuration.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guyman20:
And is this the proccess you suggested above?

Another question, will I be able to restore the device to a way which I can use my warranty if needed?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgn9000:
If you have an official kernel installed, warranty should be preserved.

But odin flash counter can provide the information about this unofficial kernel flash you need to do in order to become root. To reset this counter, you need a small device called USB JIB available on ebay for 6 euros.

Thanks to this device, the yellow triangle will be removed (that warns you have an unofficial kernel) and the odin flash counter will be resetted.

So, this is why, installing custom firmware is not a big deal after that...
