[Nexus S General] The111:
This is a huge oversimplification of any technical issue. If you've ever worked in an engineering or technical field, you know that product delay is an inevitable and even EXPECTED issue (see also: air travel, Hollywood, your local restaurant on a Friday night, etc). You act as if they're all sitting around in a boardroom, drinking coffee, and staring at a powerpoint that reads "projected timespan during which our users will remain satisfied with our sub-standard product."

I guarantee they are working on the issue... this is what companies do. And I guarantee there are 100 sub-issues, things standing in the way of release, that you and I do not see from our armchairs. There is a definite tradeoff between meeting a deadline and releasing a quality product with no serious problems. How well a company manages that tradeoff determines their reputation. I for one am ok with a weight toward the latter (quality over promptness).

Disappointment is fine... but to act like their corporate line is to keep us all on a poor product... is just simply wrong, even for the crappiest company out there. They all try, and they all WANT their users satisfied (so they can make more money). Some fail horribly... but we all put our money here so obviously we have some faith in this company. ;-)

I did not notice issues with the sprint service until I got my Nexus. I swear it worked good until they rolled out Gingerbread for the Evo... after that my phone, my father's Evo and my girlfriends Hero have all been experiencing very crappy reception. I hope this fix comes out soon though because I just found out there is a new 4G test tower just blocks from where I will be moving.

it has arrived.... running 2.3.5 right now. reception for 3g seems to be the same... wifi connectivity seems better but still get the same speeds as before.
[General Questions and Answers] Vladish:
Yesterday I rooted my phone for the first time and installed the htc sense 3.0 on my htc desire hd through rom manager.

Firstly, I did a backup of my rom with rom manager.

I didn't like htc sense 3.0 with gingerbread so I decided to get back to my original rom, so I entered rom manager and selected "restore"

the phone had done some stuff, restarted, then blocked to the HTC logo.

I waited for 20 minutes and nothing happened so I removed the battery and started the phone again.

The phone stucks at HTC logo.

However, I know that the htc is not running any software right now.

how can I make it work and install my original rom from a not starting desire hd?
[General Questions and Answers] Vladish:
I managed to enter the sd card by entering recovery mode and mounting it.

I'll install the rcmix hd rom again.

Do you know where can I find some orignal htc desire hd roms?

Off with screen off.

Get tired of notification sounds when not using it.

Also, battery life seems even better with 3.1 - now regularly getting 12 hours per charge.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
I have it always on. It doesn't really use much more battery and I like to have IM applications on most of the time. I just tap on the clock on the bottom-right corner and turn airplane mode on when I'm sleeping and turn it off when I awake. Simple and efficient.
[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newuser134:
Details:

Android 2.2 (Stock)

Rooted

Version 3.29.651.5

Unsure about version of Wimax

Radio version 2.15.00.09.01

Everything works fine. I have done extensive testing. If I just use the 3G (and turn it off when not using it), the phone has gone over 4 days in standby, with moderate voice calls, like maybe 1 or 2 calls a day. The percentage of awake time relative to up-time calculates to about 0.9% (yes, less than 1%), and the current draw averages to about 15-20 mA. I can use sms, email, internet, WiFi, anything. The overall awake time does not go over 3% if I turn off the WiFi or 3G when I don't use them. The 3G actually turns itself off when it's not being used for a while.

Certain places in town there is 4G coverage. If I turn on the 4G radio, get 4G signal established, use it for a few min, then turn it off (just like I do with 3G), then phone will NO LONGER go to sleep after that when I turn off the screen. I mark the awake time and up-time after that, and no matter what I do, and what I turn off or what process I force close, the awake time past that point will be 100% relative to up-time. The phone will use about 10% batt every 6 hrs on average after that even though 4G has been turned off. That averages to 25 mA, but it is clearly more than it was before 4G was turned off. The only way to fixed the problem is to do a full reset.

Has anyone had this issue? Can anyone think of what is causing it or what process needs to be stopped to fix this? I have done lots of search in this forum, no one has ever posted this issue. I've read about the not going to sleep because of the stock messaging program, that is not what this problem is. I have tried closing the messaging app after this occurs, no help. Other than having been rooted and the custiom startup screen, everything is stock. The unrEVOked 1-click method was used to root the phone, and s is off, nothing else was changed, no custom roms, nothing. Does this mean that once I turn on 4G, even if I turn it off later, it will continuously eat up battery and keep the phone from going to sleep after that? Any useful suggestions or similar experience remedies would be really useful.

Thank you

Update:

I installed Battery Monitor Widget, and undert "Statistics" there is "Partial Wakelock", and every time I use 4G, if I choose the "Since Unplugged", it shows 100% for Android System. How do I fix this? Is it normal? What exactly is partial wakelock, and how do I make the android system stop doing this after I turn 4G on and off? It never happens if I just stick with 3G or WiFi.

Thank again

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DefconX5:
I have a T-mobile G2 android phone. I recently rooted the phone. Installed different roms, and attempted to install a different rom. Currently have ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.3 installed. After restarting phone, if I don't load the ClockworkMod, the phone will freeze at the "HTC" screen. I can get into the Bootloader or into the ClockworkMod, but cannot get beyond that. What's the easiest thing to do in this situation?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 2easilyamused:
Wipe data and cache and reflash either your ROM, or a Nand backup. That happened to me trying to ROM my Nook Color's emmc. If wiping data and cache doesn't help, you'll need to format data, cache, boot, and system and reflash. (Hopefully you've backed up)

Note: It's most likely your boot that's a little wonky, not CWM. IMHO CWM is one of the best things to ever happen to us Droid geeks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xda<3:
Ok honestly, Clockwork doesn't work on my Dream 32a. It doesn't boot up into the recovery. It's not compatible with some phones. Hopefully you did a nand backup.. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DefconX5:
I didn't do NAND backup. Is there an alternative.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 2easilyamused:
Reflash whatever ROM you want, but format the 4 listed above. It's your boot that's messed up, so overwriting it with another one will confuse it... My nook boot-looped for about two weeks straight when I first tried installing to it's internal memory. I just stuck to it and read the forums over and over and never lost hope or gave up.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightFalcon27:
Ever wonder why ringtones aren't working in certain ROMS? Well I know I do. I have quite a few custom ringtones that I have set for certain contacts. In some ROMS the ringtones don't work. After quite a bit of research I have figured out why. Some ROMS don't support .mp3 files. The alternative is .m4a (iTunes). iTunes doesn't make it easy to make a ringtone but here is how to do it.

1. Pick the song you want to make a ringtone out of and select about a 30 second time frame to do so, it would be a good idea to write down the time ( 29sec - 59 sec).

2. Once you have that right click on the song and go to get info.

3. On the options tab there is a place that you can put a start and stop time. In those boxes put the beginning part of the ringtone and in the stop put the last part (here is why you needed the times in step 1) Then hit ok.

4. Next right click on the song that you just edited and hit create aac version. This will create a "new song" that is 30 seconds long and this is what we will use for the ringtone.

5. Right click on that 30 second song and click get info. At the bottom it will tell you what directory it is located in. Example: c:\users\username\music\itunes\itunes music\music\whateverband\whateveralbum\songname.m4a

6. Go to that directory and cut or copy the song and place it on your sd card int he corresponding ringtones folder.

There you go... A ringtone that will work with a ROM where .mp3 tones do not.

I've only been able to find the ED04 modem update. I have not been able to receive OTAs since I reverted from the GB leak. I ODINed DL09 and used EA28 & ED01 update.zips and am now on ED01. Every time I've tried OTA, I get "Server Unavailable".
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedoman:
Odin back to DLO9 and allow the ota from there. Something about changing up the build (such as different baseband than build) messes with the ability of the phone to properly connect to ota. The update zips may change something that is essential to ota. I am not certain but I have used this method consistently due to problems with others. I could be mis-interpreting your problem but I think you will find that ota will work with DLO9 as the starting point.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnyplaid:
Thanks for helping but If I'm not mistaken, I tried to OTA from DL09 & DI01 but failed, which is why I used the update.zips from here to get to ED01. I never had a problem before I tried the GB leak.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
You say you reverted from gb..was that an mtd gb leak? If so did you use the atlas2.2 pit file in the re partition box and revert with the official vzw tar( the dl09 or eb01) when you used odin? If you did not, I'm sure that will cause issues.

I'm not sure it will help your specific issue you have, but I know you always have to use those to revert back from an mtd setup.

Let it boot fully and then try ota...I know if your modem doesn't match your rom it may cause ota update errors
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnyplaid:
I really appreciate the help guys. Going to figure this out sooner or later.

I've tried going back to DI01 & DL09. Those were the official versions and what I've always done & I tried the atlas 2.2pit file as suggested earlier. I've also tried installing EB01, which I think was a Froyo leak.

Before, if I tried an OTA and wasn't on an official version, it would say No Update Available. Now, it doesn't matter if I'm on DI01, DL09, EB01 or ED01, it says Server Unavailable. I never had the problem before until I tried the GB leak.

Once you ODIN back to DL09, there is a post about how to get to ED04 without the huge over the air updates. It basically involves ODIN'ing DL09, then using CWM to flash a zip that will take you straight to ED04. I used it after I was already on CM7, and it works if you are on other roms as well.
