[HTC Sensation] RunNgun42:
They are both 4.3" diagonal, but the aspect ratios are different. The Thunderbolt/Galaxy2 have wider screens to they are physically bigger phones. Personally I like the extra width, I think the default font sizes and such for web browsing fit better. I found myself having to fiddle with the zoom level on the Sensation too much for my liking.
[Thunderbolt General] Mr Spiff:
okay, i soaked my phone in isopropyl alcohol, then placed it into damprid (a descant, like rice) for almost 52 hours now, the phone functions properly, my speaker will not work, and there is water between my digitizer and lcd.

I am going to place it back in the descant for now, but ive seen no improvement in the amount of liquid between the digitizer and lcd as of yet so it's doubtful i will.

I would like to take my digitizer off and attempt to remove the excess water. ideas? I do have alot of experience in working on small electronics (i fix computers and small electronics for a living), ie. ipods, other phones. just not the thunderbolt, any ideas suggestions? links to a good tear down procedure?

Thanks

-SPIFF
[Thunderbolt General] sklobopes:
Word of advice...keep it powered off till the liquid is removed, it may screw your digitizer ribbon up or worse.

Here's a really good teardown/repair video.... Good luck!

[Thunderbolt General] DoctorZaius68:
I would recomend making sure that you have removed all of the water before putting the battery back in your Thunderbolt. Water conducts electricity and you can fry some of your components.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
I would try putting it in the oven for a bit on warm, it might help dry it out.

When my wife washed my flip phone years back, it had water under the screen for a couple of months before it finally all dried out.
[Thunderbolt General] altimax98:
This can work but be real careful or you'll melt it. I say warm it up and shut it down and then place it in. It should help remove that trapped water
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
I think my oven on warm is between 125-150 degrees, cool enough that I can take a plate out without mitts.

Here's a chart of plastic melting points:

http://www.machinist-materials.com/comparison_table_for_plastics.htm

I would just let it cool before doing anything with it.
[Thunderbolt General] swarlos:
Ooo not good did the rice trick already?
[Thunderbolt General] sklobopes:
Just take it apart and dry it out, I don't think baked thunderbolt would be a worthy dinner..
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
Wow, thats ****ty.
[Thunderbolt General] ilogik:
Use a hair dryer to heat it up?
[Thunderbolt General] ibsk8:
Do you do this work for a job or hobby?

If its your job you should know better than to use isopropyl alcohol, it leaves noticeable residue, go get some denatured alcohol and take the thing apart.
[Thunderbolt General] 303bonefish:
Did you try wiping three times?
[Thunderbolt General] Dork6243:
HA!
[Thunderbolt General] bond32:
That's what I would do. You can buy a new screen for cheap, the digitizer costs a little more but if you don't have insurance (like me) it would not be a bad idea.

[Thunderbolt General] SWhetsel:
Rice. Wife dropped her BB in the pool last year and we where able to save the phone for another month (and get her data off) by placing it in a bag of white rice for a few days. That stuff sucked all the moisture right out of the phone.

We did find random rice pieces for a while falling out of the phone after it started working though! lol
[Thunderbolt General] Neera:
Rice will do the trick.

Hubby left his Droid Eris in his pocket, so when his pants went into the washer, so did the phone, for a full cycle.

When I transferred the clothes into the dryer I hear a suspicious clink clank...

Took the phone apart, stuck it in rice. After a few days I tried powering it up with the original battery and no dice, so I tried a different battery and voila!

There were some water spots under the screen, but they eventually went away and you can't tell anymore what it went through at all.

The original battery actually started to work again as well, just needed a little longer in the rice and hubby has been using it with the phone since then. All this happened in March or April 2010, can't remember exactly.

Our phones are pretty tough little devices. I have been trying to get hubby to upgrade, but he is stubborn and won't part with his phone lol!
[Thunderbolt General] Rearless:
If you do get the liquid out of the screen, please repost and let us know how you did it.

Okay, so I saw this on the xda news thingy. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1142448 . Someone on the vibrant forums was able to get wifi calling working. Could this be ported to or work on our epics?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostrid3r:
Looks promising, but I see some users are getting charged for land line minute usage and others not. Also see some grandfathered plans are being changed upon usage of Wifi Calling. This goes for T-mobile customers of course.

I currently make my Wifi calls with gv + sipdroid without have to deal with any of these hassles.

[HTC Incredible S] Thumper0G:
Hey there. I ran into an issue with my HTC incredible S where It's not responding at all. I've tried everything and the phone just reboots over and over and over. I can not gain access to my recovery at all. I am wondering if you know how to fix it. It is currently

HTC INCREDIBLE S (VIRGIN MOBILE)

HBOOT: 1.09.1000

RADIO: -3805.04.03.22_m

It is currently S-OFF

Up to today I have tried everything from trying to access my recovery to going as far as even doing RUU and even the rom.zip to PG32IMG. None of these have worked.

Everytime I put PG32IMG into root of SD it loads from Hboot than tells me there is an ID error.

If Anyone could help me out I would be forever in your debt. I have been sweating this out without a phone for 4 days and counting. I really need my phone back up as my daughter has no way of getting ahold of me other than my cellphone...
[HTC Incredible S] ma20at:
:Dpoor guy... i think you can save ur phone if it can enter HBOOT-fastboot mode
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Do you have another SD card you can try? How are you copying the PG32IMG.zip file to the SD card?
[HTC Incredible S] Thumper0G:
What I have done so far was run the RUU installer, grab the rom.zip file in my tmp folder and than change it's name to PG32IMG NOT PG32IMG.zip and placed it

into the root of my SD which I made sure I formatted everytime. I was just thinking about it now. Could it be that my card is 16GB... Would that have some sort of impact on the recovery process?
[HTC Incredible S] jkolner:
What about a "Factory Reset" from with in Recovery?
[HTC Incredible S] Smkiller:
You have an Incredible S from Virgin Mobile, which I guess is from Canada. All you have to do is to follow the guide to flash an RUU on a Canadian device that is on the same section of the forum. This way, you will not get an incorrect ID error and the hboot will flash your PG32IMG.zip.
[HTC Incredible S] Thumper0G:
Could you be a bit more detailed? I am unsure of the method you speak of...

Thanks again btw. I will be following up with results tonight once I am home from Work.

Fingers crossed that this works properly! :D
[HTC Incredible S] Neolight78:
Not sure I can help but at least good luck.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
This is the post he is talking about. After re-reading your OP, I would again that this is the method you need to take. When I read it last night, I though you were getting an IO error, not an ID error.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1145541

So basically, after you get the ROM.zip, you need to unzip it and modify the android-info.txt file to change the modelid and cidnum values that correspond to your phone.
[HTC Incredible S] chris_barsoum:
delete the PG32IMG from your SD card

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] datdirtyscrew:
... By the looks of the screenshots, the other is not complete SPRINT LOVERS icons and the "complete experience" has a more complete set but is a work in progress? Assume work in progress means either BETA or also not completely complete? Bout to flash and see what happens.

And now new Gmail, anyone want to give this a stab, and also get animated sync icon too?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] iBlowpot:
My bad y'all. I wound up breaking my EVO and I fell back on things. I just got another one last week, but it was already updated with 2.3.3.

Sent from my Epic, because my EVO arrived with the Gingerbread update.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gamblor01:
What exactly do you mean by new Gmail? You want the white Gmail icon with the red M in it or do you want the default gingerbread version? It looks like this includes the white envelope with red, but changing it is easy if you know how to use adb (though you should still make a full nandroid backup before proceeding -- just in case):

1. Grab the framework-res.apk file from your phone:

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk

2. Double-click on the .apk file and navigate it with 7zip (Windows), archive manager (Linux with Gnome), etc.

3. Go into the res/drawable-hdpi directory and swap out the stat_notify_gmail.png file with whatever image you desire (i.e. rename your desired image to stat_notify_gmail.png and then copy it to this folder, overwriting the existing image).

4. Close the window and push the file back to your device:

$ adb remount
$ adb shell stop
$ adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
$ adb shell start

If you aren't sure what any of that means or you need help just let me know.

Now the animated sync icon is going to be a little bit more work. I'm rather curious how that is done (probably just some timeouts in the XML with a series of images that are all rotated from the previous one), but now you have got me kind of curious!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gamblor01:
Hmmm...ok well I have some rather limited knowledge of this stuff but I think I see how to animate the icon. The problem is that I would have to replace your entire framework-res.apk file so it would also change the battery icons that you may have, along with just about every other icon that appears on the notification bar there.

But if I were to do this I would try the following after unpacking the framework-res.apk file (apktool d framework-res.apk). I'm sort of putting these notes here for myself as well as everyone else. I don't have time to try this right now but I might give it a shot later tonight or tomorrow...once the kiddos go to bed.

1. Starting with the framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi/stat_notify_sync_anim0.png as a base. Create a few different versions of the sync image at different angles (i.e. create 3 more images -- this original image can serve as the first image with one of the arrows on the left at "9 o'clock", another image 45 degrees from that, a third one with one of the arrows directly on the top at "12 o'clock", and then another 45 degrees from that.

2. Copy the new image files to framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi.

3. Create a new xml file framework-res/res/drawable/stat_notify_sync.xml with the following lines in it:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animation-list android:oneshot="false"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@drawable/stat_notify_sync_anim0" />
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@drawable/stat_notify_sync_anim1" />
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@drawable/stat_notify_sync_anim2" />
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@drawable/stat_notify_sync_anim3" />
</animation-list>

4. Insert new lines referencing the resources inside of framework-res/res/values/public.xml:

<public type="drawable" name="stat_notify_sync_anim1" id="0x01080292" />
<public type="drawable" name="stat_notify_sync_anim2" id="0x01080292" />
<public type="drawable" name="stat_notify_sync_anim3" id="0x01080292" />

5. Now build the apk file, sign it, zipalign it (optional), create the flashable zip, and then sign the zip file.

I'm pretty sure that this would work but again it would mean that we are replacing the entire framework-res.apk file so you would lose all other customizations that you might have to the status bar icons.

I might just give this a shot for the heck of it. I have no idea if it will work but I'm willing to at least try. I have a very recent nandroid backup so I can easily push this over to see if it works before posting!

Yeah ever since ive done the update my phone randomly starts to lag it sucks bad i feel like i have my hero again :/ also the white htc screen keeps coming up when i push the home key.ive had nothing but bad issues with this gingerbread update im wondering maybe because it was a download from here i forgot who posted it i think someone with the screen name football.i dont know if it was that or what but it seems like im having issues i didnt have before if anyone has a link to a office update? Cus i already did that ruu that football posted and i cant downgrade i already know about the hboot issue so dont flame me about wanting to unroot i already know that was a fail lol

Please help!! Im so damn frustrated with this update! I do have better battery life but thats about it my gps kinda acts weird as well also my 4g seems to not connect where it used to idk?anyone have any info on how i can get it up and running like.a evo shift not a overclock hero lol
[EVO Shift 4G General] yakuzajr:
A lot of people has issues with the upgrade. I have a evo flashed to metropcs and I lost my mobile network. Other than that battery life is improved but sometimes screen is lagging, white htc screen takes to much time when i switch from application to home screen and camera app doesn't start sometimes till i restart the phone. so upgrade messed me up so bad too :(
[EVO Shift 4G General] craven667:
well if you got it from here i am guessing its still rooted so i would say d/l a new rom and start over if your not rooted there not much you can do if you like stock rom use this one if not look for a different one

Gingerbread has made my "Smart Phone" essentially useless as a Smart Phone. It wasn't great with FROYO to begin with due to the interface resetting every time I used my web browser, but now after the Gingerbread update the damn phone resets after almost every app I use!

I'm on my way to the Sprint store right now. I use my phone for work and this is making it unusable for me. They at the very least need to get me back to FROYO, or it's time for an entirely different phone I suppose. :mad:

I had problems

I had issues with the internal clock not updating even though the sense clock read correct, constant white screens, this update should have waited a bit in my opinion.
[EVO Shift 4G General] DaWeav:
The update bricked the CDMA radio so bad Sprint is now sending me another Shift which I should get tomorrow. This one will only do CDMA - 1xRTT and won't even go into CDMA - EvDo rev.A at all after the update. In fact, using the ##debug# dial code and selecting EVDO Engineering, this Shift reports '<Failed>' in every field. Even a Sprint network re-provision did not fix it. Since I pay the $7 per month replacement fee, I'm guessing that I should get a 'new' Shift vice a refurb hopefully. At this point I'll be happy to get EvDo rev.A back and live with the Sense reloads because 1xRTT is way too SLOW to do much of anything!

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dionysos803:
I know Gingerbread ROMs are the most stable build to use. Both my friend and i are running the the BAMF GingerREMIX v2.1 with the MR2.5 radios. Both of our phones are experiencing the same problem with mounting our SD cards to our PC from the TB. I've never experienced this issue before in the past. I can still download files directly from my phone and store them on the SD card, i can view the contents of my SD card from my phone. So that eliminates the possibly of the card being the issue. This means the BAMF GingerREMIX v2.1 ROM i have running is creating an issue with allowing my phone to connect to my computer.

1) Has anyone else experienced this problem?

2) Is this a known issue with this specific ROM or even any other (or all other) Gingerbread ROMs for the TV?

3) Does anyone know of a patch or any other way to fix this problem?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hinds73:
1) Yes

2) Not Rom specific----Gingerbread roms for the TV?

3) Google "usbdeview" - Remove any HTC drivers with the phone plugged in and then unplug phone. Reconnect the phone and drivers should re-install.

This is what I was told to do and everything works just fine now.
