[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Flappyraccoon:
Hiya, the case that came with my extended battery pushes down on the connector prongs more than the stock case did. Over time, after taking the case off again and again one of them was bent too many times and snapped off. I noticed the antenna bridges the connection which you can see in the first picture. Anyway, I did a fairly messy soldering job but the second picture is trying to show a tiny wire connecting both connectors together. I get signal again but the question remains, does the amount of metal touching the antenna pad affect the signal strength?

I have another month to return the phone at Costco who will just take it no questions asked, but is it worth the hassle. Do you think I should just keep the phone since it works well otherwise, is there a better fix, or am I just experiencing the placebo effect and everything is fine again. Thanks for any advice!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ACD168:
I think if it works well why not keep it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mikells43:
these anttenna connectors on this phone are horrible. they are the poorest design. i had a flawed one that got bent somehow within 1 day of having the phone, i got a replacement cause it was poor workmanship and considered their fault by assurion so i lucked out, my 1 tab on the bottom left was bent then snapped(tabs below sd) and it didnt effect my signal at all compaired to the other one they sent me. also i think the ones up where urs is broke is for the gps (just an edu guess).

and if u do get a new phone from costco, ditch that bum back and case u have that caused the prob i got an htc oem from vzw for 37$ after 25% disc. that was batt and back. so if that messes up the tabs at least i can say i used oem htc.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Flappyraccoon:
I'd love to ditch it for a different back but have a 3600mAh extended battery that doubles the phone width.. I'm open to ideas though! This might be a bad idea, but could adding a tiny bit of solder underneath the pins where it bends (a very tiny amount) to secure it more in place, help it from breaking in the future? I wonder...

[G2 and Desire Z General] capsoo:
Hello!

Even though my post count indicates that I'm a newbie, I am not! So don't rant and call me one and that I should read better or what not! ;)

After having the Insertcoin ROM for a while, I decided flashing Virtuous Unity today, because it seems more stable and smooth. So I downloaded the latest (1.27), and followed the instructions. I used ROM Manager (never used that before, always flashed through CWM Recovery, but, what the heck, ROM Manager seemed faster and easier for this one).

Now, after flashing it thru ROM Manager, it rebooted into CWM. All looked fine until that point. (at least, I thought). I selected Reboot now in the CWM menu, and it rebooted into HTC logo. After a minute, it went back to Recovery! :confused: And, it keeps doing that! I've had a bootloop before, but not into Recovery??

I tried rebooting into HBOOT, even manual reboot in ADB. Nothing works! I also tried flashing again, but that also failed. The problem reoccurs. Then I read it might have something to do with 1.27 version.

So I downloaded 1.25, and pushed it thru ADB on the sdcard. But, now I cant find it anywhere when I select Install ZIP from SDcard in CWM. :(

I'm a little bit confused, so please help me heheh :D

Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] capsoo:
I fixed it, sorry for the useless topic... May be deleted!

(I got me another SD card and tried the 1.25.)
[G2 and Desire Z General] cjward23:
I'm guessing the reason 1.27 didn't work is because you have the G2 hboot, and unity now requires all vision users to have the DZ hboot, instructions on how to change can be found here
[G2 and Desire Z General] capsoo:
Well, I doubt that, since I have an HTC Desire Z and not the G2..? So I should already have the DZ Hboot right?
[G2 and Desire Z General] cjward23:
Not necessarily, I had the G2 hboot on my DZ for about 6 months. And only changed when RMK posted his guide.

If you go in to the bootloader it will either say. 0.84.2000 (DZ) or 0.76.0000 (G2)

And don't use ROM manager, it may seem to make things quicker and easier but it never works as well as doing everything manually in CWM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] capsoo:
I will check which one I have... And for Rom manager, I never used it but on the virtuous site they recommended it so I thought it might work better... It didn't hahah

EDIT: well, it turns out i have the 0.76 version xD my bad! That explains tho!
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheJayyWilliams:
You need the Desire Z hboot, you can find it by googling around, it doesn't matter if you have the G2 or DZ I the G2 with DZ hboot, and I'm running Virtuous 1.26.0
[G2 and Desire Z General] GuiPoM:
and what about 0.85.0005. Is it a "classic" hboot ? for DZ or G2 ? Thanks !
[G2 and Desire Z General] cjward23:
That is the hboot that the DZ ships with

On CM7.1, After the screen timeout delay, where the screen automatically turns off (1, 2, 5 mins..), or if i even turn off the screen (not power down), sometimes it simply won't wake back up and i need to reboot by holding the power button down.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
You don't have to tick this in Odin, you have to download a firmware WITH bootloader. The bootloader is included in the firmware. And in some cases (when the phone-application has force closes) people didn't flash Gingerbread-bootloader when they came from Froyo. ;)

For example here is a firmware with bootloader (the first one in the thread): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011901
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stile35:
But it is also necessary to tick "Phone Bootloader Update", right? Otherwise, bootloader which is part of firmware will not be updated, or?

I downloaded GB 2.3.3. from Samfirmware and I doubt that this FW is without bootloader, so I don't think that this is problem, especially if Bootloader box shouldn't be ticked.

Can you confirm that Samfirmware 2.3.3. (JVH) FW has bootloader?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
Nope, you shouldn't tick it. Only do this if you flash a bootloader seperatly. ;)

I have to admit that I never know if the bootloader is included or not. :o

[LG Optimus 2x] supercurio:
Hi!

After a ton of requests from you guys, I finally decided to take the challenge to write a Voodoo Sound port for this WolfsonMicro WM8994 powered phone.

So I bought a device just for that, because it was just impossible without.

As stated previously, this phone don't have a proper sound driver, or at least not a Linux Kernel driver.

There is some kind of non-standard userspace audio implementation inside /system/bin/nvrm_daemon.

This daemon sends directly i2c commands via a NVIDIA proprietary API, which has an interface running as a bunch of foreign code in Kernel in order to access the hardware.

Why this port is a real technical challenge, requiring a fair share of reverse-engineering, lots of head-scratching and a very hacky state of mind?

Because it's not supposed to be possible. But, eh ^^

I have an Optimus 2x since a few days only so I don't have much experience about what needs to be improved, apart from the obvious:

- Sound quality.

- Headphone amp volume.

- Creepy speaker output.

As usual, most of my work is under GPL and Kernels developers/packagers are welcome re-using my patches.

If possible, I'll also write an in-app implementation, not requiring a patched kernel in Voodoo Control Plus.

You can follow the dev work here:

github.com/project-voodoo/linux_lge-p990/commits/froyo-voodoo-sound

I commit code real-time so if you're curious you don't have to wait for release to play with it!

PS: targets are Optimus 2X official and CyanogenMod, G2X official and CyanogenMod
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
That would be real great... yeah sound quality needs a boost up. Thanks in advance.... i have big hope for it to work
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:

[LG Optimus 2x] b3ndech0:

[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
sounds great, can't wait:D
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Awesome !

Yeah damn proprietary drivers. Wanted to port your stuff from the nexus s but then yeah.. nearly everything is closed : /.

Anyway you are way more skilled then me so let's see what you can do ;)

For headset boost you can have a look at this https://github.com/VorkTeam/vorkKernel-LGP990/commit/7db46bc4a778dc89d6de7d1550c8e3b3d0fe00a1.patch . It's just a finished sysfs implementation started by lg. DebauchedSloth wrote it (found it here ). He wrote a app for it too Github.

Thank U
[LG Optimus 2x] freddy_krueger:
Sorry for this noob question but what is difference between voodoo sound and dsp manager or volume+ ?
[LG Optimus 2x] supercurio:
No pb!

Voodoo sound work directly at hardware level.

This way I can fix issues at the lowest level, use the full potential of the sound chip, increase quality.

Other solutions are software effects: cannot improve the sound quality or increase the volume for real, eats some CPU and add latency.
[LG Optimus 2x] supercurio:
BTW I found theoretically how to hook Voodoo Sound driver without flashing a custom kernel yesterday, I'll try the concept today.

This way, Voodoo Control Plus should be able to load the driver on rooted devices.
[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
sounds good:) when do you think it will be ready:D
[LG Optimus 2x] supercurio:
Well its disappointing but not terrible, being integrated into a kernel, especially an "official" one is still a good news.

I'm sure it's only really a git rookie mistake.
