So, I've been pretty much off the forums and updating my software for a good year now. I'm still on 2.2 JPP and using Doc's ROM. Has there been any improvement to the GPS since then? Or any other improvements that are upgrade worthy? My GPS is still taking at least 5 minutes to actually locate where I am..:/

[EVO 4G General] Marlowr05:
hello everyone. I have been using Cyanogenmod 7.1 for a little while now. I am getting tired of it for right now. I am wanting to try something with sense 3.0 and GB rom. Which one's are great and fully working on the Evo? Also do any of them have better battery life?

P.S. I am currently trying out Synergy rom. My friend has the LG phones on Verizon and man they get awesome battery life. 12 hours off the charger and his phone is only down to 73%. He has been making a lot of calls but man my Evo was off the charger for 16 hours and was down to 15% and I barely even used the phone. I hope the Evo 3D has much better battery life, otherwise I may buy an 3500MAH battery for my evo.

[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
All the Hybrid 3.0 ROMS are good. All of them.

Battery life is not going to be like your friends until we can have custom kernels, which we can't have yet. Not until HTC releases the source code.

Battery life varies from phone to phone anyhow
[EVO 4G General] Marlowr05:
ok thank you. Looks like I'll be flashing and testing out roms today, thanks again I will report anything else here.

Evo 4g
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
MikG-c2.15 is working very well - no issues at all. Battery easily lasts a day with fairly heavy use. This is probably the best ROM I have ever had on the Evo. (and I have tried MANY.)

RECOMMENDED.
[EVO 4G General] ncfastls1:
I love Synergy and MikG but I can't use them as an everyday rom because of the battery life. With Synergy I watched my battery drop to 70% in like three hours after I had my phone off the charger for a few hours yesterday morning. And I had barely touched the phone! That is completely unacceptable to me, sorry. I need my SBC and HAVS. I wanted to go back to MikFroyo but I have an issue with the display usage (stays at like 90% even with the screen off and not touching the phone) that drains the battery in like 10 hours.

Tried to go back to my Salvage-Mod nandroid but it somehow got corrupt. I almost went back to Myn's twopointtwo but I didn't want something so outdated (still a great rom though). So here I am now using CM7...not the biggest fan in the world but it works and it's giving me great battery life with Tiamat kernel 4.0.5. A little over 20 hours with medium usage.

I don't understand what happened with MikFroyo. I never had the display usage issue before. Then it just came out of no where and stayed like that. I tried going back to 4.5 (which I know for a fact it didn't do that on) and it still did it. Tried switching kernels, nothing. I used to get 25-30 hours with a charge on 4.62, and Salvage-Mod gave me the same battery life. So I'm just hoping that new kernels with SBC and HAVS will let me be able to keep Synergy or MikG as a daily.
[EVO 4G General] Marlowr05:
Keep me updated. I have been using Syngergy today and battery life is ok. I would go back to CM7 but having all of the random reboots when 4G is turned on kinda got old.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
I need my SBC and HAVS,. also, but you DO know you cannot judge battery life right after flashing the ROM, right? You DO know you have to let it settle in for a day or 2, right?
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
this is with 28% remaining after heavy use

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cinarkvadigar:
So I want to load a new ROM onto my captivate. Issue is cant get my phone into download mode (I don't feel comfortable with the jig "fix") to use Odin to apply the kernel fix, to allow the install of clockwork mod, to finally get the new custom ROM on my phone. i really hope there is a way to do this, my phone is rooted, was updated to 2.2 froyo.uckb1. I know android is linux based so why can't companies like att & Samsung leave it as open and free for us. Its not like were pirating we just want to improve our gadgets. If i wanted zero options and get locked into a single configuration i would have gotten the iPhone. Please help :)

Have u tried the All In One Tool by bay_wolf ??

Here's the link...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=944418

U can use this for Froyo Roms. Also, under "Advanced" there is an option to select that will reboot ur phone into download mode. There's been a few times in the past where I've used this tool just for that.

With phone on as normal, Enable usb debugging on phone, plug micro usb to phone then usb to computer, Connect storage to pc, click Advanced and select to Reboot to Download mode and there u go... :) Hope this helps.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
What exactly aren't you comfortable with about a jig?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crystalhand:
Agreed. Getting your phone is something you should figure out. some phones need a special odin to work. You have a much higher probability to perm brick your phone if you don't
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
You can use ADB to get the phone in download mode. But in all honesty having a Jig around is always a good idea. Some times the key combos will just not work and if ur stuck on a bootloop or w/e that jig will save your but xD. Keep in mind are ways to hard brick your phone like mixing up GB with froyo bootloaders or ODING failing to flash the bootloader. This problems will not be fixed with a jig.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pandakh:
Don't make an easy thing hard... remove all from phone battery, sim, sd....place the battery back... press the 2 volume rockers at the same time and and without releasing the buttons plug in your usb into your phone... this will get you to download mode
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
That doesn't always work. Specially if you get a soft brick. I've had my phone bootloop and it wouldn't go in to download mode with any of the methods =/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cinarkvadigar:
im tring the tool but even when i have debugging mode enabled it shows it as disabled.

My need for the new rom is to unlock my phone sim, i cant use the methods ive found for the 2.2 captivate due some issue with the file needed to get the code. if someone with the knowhow here is in the new orleans area i can buy you a coffee or something for some help :)

Hi to all!

Sorry for repeating the thread but I didn't find what I'm looking for.

I have Samsung Galaxy S2 and on a previous version of my ROM I had stock "Samsung keyboard" and it had ".com" key, but on new version on ROM I don't have it. I am looking now to download but I can't find it.

Please send me link or refer to this keyboard.

Hey Guys,

Didn't see this for the Inspire - how do things work for this phone with bluetooth car stereos specifically pushing your contacts. I've always had problems with this issue with my Evo I dumped and my iPhone 4 is easy as pie. I'm giving that to my wife because I miss Android and want an HTC see again any thoughts ASAP? Going to buy tomorrow most likely and I'm thinking this or Infuse or Atrix since both of the others have front facing camera and I can do vid with the kids and such when I'm traveling.

Thanks!
[Fascinate General] ajd88:
So I just sold my girlfriends fascinate on ebay. I shipped a few days ago and just got this message from the buyer.

Thanks for the fast shipping. damn it sucks to say, but i went to have the phone activated at the verizon store. they not only said it can't be activated because its on the reported stolen list, but they confiscated it. i didnt know it couldnt be used, it should of never been listed. anyways, if you didnt know this either, no hard feelings. i wont contact ebay or paypal if you refund my payment right away so i can buy another one.

I have a good feeling that this a POS trying to scam me. I'm looking for some advice on how to respond to this issue. By the way the phone is not stolen in any way shape or form. I know this is kind of off topic but I figured this would be a good place to receive some advice.
[Fascinate General] bangdrum:
Uh yea. I'd say it's a scam
[Fascinate General] FDro:
Did he verify the ESN prior to buying the phone? If not, its his fault and there is nothing he can do. Explain the situation to ebay and open a dispute.
[Fascinate General] ajd88:
He did not verify esn. I just thought it was strange that he would be trying to pull this when he has a 98.6% positive feedback rating with over 2000 transactions.
[Fascinate General] K40:
It will be easier if you have the device ID. Contact Verizon and get paper work from them showing the device has a clean ESN. This will only work if you are either still under contract or left verizon when your contract was finished. If you got out of the contract via the fee changes the esn will be bad.

Assuming the Esn is clean once you have the paperwork that says its clean you just tell the buyer that you have evidence of a clean ESN and that you will fight any dispute. PayPal and EBay see these shady people alot and know what to look for.
[Fascinate General] glsteve:
Yeah man I wouldn't trust this.
[Fascinate General] ashasaur:
For sure contact Verizon if you can and verify your ESN is good. I have a feeling that this is indeed a scam.

[Fascinate General] MattRussNC:
Think k40 has a point. On what terms did you leave verizon, or at least deactivate the phone?

[Fascinate General] wardcst:
The only way he is Intitled to a refund is if he pays shipping and returns it to you

Even if he files a complaint he will have to show proof that he sent it back

So I would not worry to much about it

If he does send one back make Damn sure it is yours and has your esn

eBay has policies in place to protect you and the never do anything out of eBay

And you may be wise to report it to them right away and let them know what is going on This Kind of Deal is a No No you were asked outside of eBay
[Fascinate General] mkarps:
Sounds like a scam to me. Good luck.
[Fascinate General] jami2976:
I was just talking to a buddy of mine that works at verizon and he told me they would only inform you if its on the lost or stolen list, they will not confiscate it sounds like a big scam
[Fascinate General] curley1441:
Does smell like a scam close to the sme thing happend to me with a video card
[Fascinate General] xelsewherex:
Seen plenty of phones come in with bad esn's. Not once did we or were we authorized to take possesion of the device
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
Also, everyone be careful even letting a potential customer check the esn. When I was trying to sell my blackberry many scammers tried to get at mine. Don't give it to them! They can do a fake activation put insurance on it and claim it lost/stolen.. at that point your esn goes bad and they receive a phone from insurion in the mail.. One scammer even tried to get me to take a photo of the back of the phone with the battery out (where the esn is written) under the pretense he was looking to see if it worked on gsm.. Duh its a world phone... Good luck man. From my experience selling on ebay is nothing but headache.

Make sure you move your money out from paypal and un-link any connected bank accounts. The guy will just call his CC company and dispute the charge. Paypal will take your money and you'll be SOL no matter how much evidence your have. Paypal's "protection" is **** and they'll screw you over in a heartbeat.

[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
That's a scam, no doubt about it. Don't let the feedback rating fool you, because it could be a legitimate account that got compromised. The only way they could win a dispute with eBay is if they can provide proof that the ESN was bad. If you know the ESN was good, then there's no way they could possibly provide that proof.

[Fascinate General] mrbobhcrhs:
Im not so sure about that, I just tryed to have them put insurance on a fascinate I bought used and they said you can only put it on if you bought it from them.
[Fascinate General] AlexDeGruven:
Definite scam. As stated before, they won't confiscate the device. It's not their right to.

Unlike with media, you actually own a phone, rather than license it (which is why software, music, and videos can actually be confiscated). For them to take the phone from the buyer would be theft.

Call Verizon, have them pull the ESN from the old phone for you and have them verify that it is good. You should also be able to have them verify if it's been activated or not.

The way the systems work these days, I'm surprised someone would actually try and pull a scam like this one. It's way too easy to verify that they're full of it.
[Fascinate General] woolster22:
Not always...I had bought my last phone on eBay, used no less, and was able to put insurance on it. They never asked if it was used, they just must have been happy that I jumped up to a data plan or something. And this was three weeks into the phone being activated on my line!

i am using root manager for the first time.

i successfully downgraded my desire hd. installed visionary and did the permanent root.

did the radio S-OFF successfully.

tried the Eng S-off but failed.rebooted the phone.

i checked it with root checker application and it showed that i have rooted my phone.

i installed rom manager and flashed clockmod recovery successfully.

now i put my leedroid rom on the sd card and press "reboot in recovery" in rom manager.

my desire hd boots up and what i get is a phone icon with a red triangle with a red exclamation mark on it .

i removed the battery and restarted my phone.

this time i press the power and volume down button.

i go down to recovery mode and click it on the bootloader screen.

again the same phone icon with a red triangle with a red exclamation mark.

no button works and i have to remove battery again.

What should i do now ???

i'm totally stuck.
[Desire HD General] Sybregunne:
your CWM Recovery didn't flash successfully. Next time don't pull your battery press volume down and hold then press power button. it will show you a menu that allows you to reboot your DHD.

Try to reboot your DHD holding the volume down button until the boot loader appears. chech that the first line has something that says

ENG S-OFF or in my case the whole line was

ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

then reboot the phone and flash recovery I believe you have to have Radio S-OFF to be able to flash recovery.

did you use the one-click easy S-OFF and one-click Radio S-OFF tool. if not try to search for this in the forums. I believe they are by jkoljo. This worked for me like a charm. happy ROM-ming. :)

CWM has a different logo I think it is/was an android guy on a skateboard. whereas stock recovery is a triangle with exclamation point inside. So it means something went wrong when he flashed his CWM and would lead me to believe that his S-OFF process went awry. So checking S-OFF is easy. Reboot to bootloader and the info is on the first line.

Yeah, ClockworkMod has a gear logo, with a fancy hat on top of it. And a note to some previous post, ROM Manager is just a graphical interface of ClockworkMod. You always need ClockworkMod to flash.
