Anyone?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gwanatu:
What amount of time are we talking? Mine takes probably 10 seconds or so, which is a really long time for something loading (even though it may not sound like it when typing here).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxFerociouS:
I would say almost a minute
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeuout:
about 6 - 10 sec is avrg... 1 min ?? i would check my data info to make sure ur phones on the up and up
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jankrix:
would it be caused by slow network? I usually get that problem when I'm in such GPRS or jamed 3G network
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxFerociouS:
I'm not really sure because I don't have a data plan on my HTC G2. I just use wifi the whole time.

And it really takes about a minute to load.

I don't think itss because its the slow connection, it has to be something else.

Any suggestions on what I should do?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeuout:
whats ur wifi at % wise
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxFerociouS:
How do I check the % of my wifi?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeuout:
well im assuming ur getting on someone elses connection using ur wifi....in the list of wifi connections available it should give a % on how strong the connection is
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxFerociouS:
Nope I'm always connected to mine

Idk what's causing to take a minute to open the market
[Xoom General] jzun223:
Ok so I recently ordered my first tablet, I went with the xoom since I wanted fast updates. So myquestion is, is there a difference between stock honeycomb compared to the popular ROMs in the development section?

I should have my xoom in a few days hopefully, I was originally going to flash a kernel to OC. I was however questioning on whether to flash a ROM or not. From experience what will you guys recommended, flash a custom ROM or not?

Thanks
[Xoom General] okantomi:
I think your big question is whether to root or not. Personally, I would root and install the solarnz recovery version for CWM and then flash Team Tiamat Rom l.l. It's fantastic! It's so much smoother than stock. The tiamat kernels are great too. There are some other nice choices as well, and more are on the way. Xoom developers are the greatest!
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Very hard to brick the root if you follow instructions

just dont bother relocking it shouldnt ever need to relock it in the first place
[Xoom General] wiesman2613:
i put tiamat 1.1 on my Xoom when it came out and it has completely fixed most issues I had with the Xoom. SD card support, no more lag, and extremely fast boots (with a nice new boot animation). When you flash the rom make sure you get setcpu off the market. You can change the CPU speed on the fly! I keep mine at 1.5 ghz because 1.7 has rebooted on me a few times.
[Xoom General] jaystekan:
I am running the Tiamat 1.1 rom as well. I have had very few if any issues. SD card support, overclocking, stability, root access, etc...... I liked my Xoom when I purchased it, I LOVE my rooted and rommed XOOM!

[Nexus S General] gasolara2002:
I bought a bricked Nexus S form the marketplace. I tried to get it in to download mode and it is not working at all. The phone is charging so i know it has life in it. It is not recognized by fastboot or odin. I have a jig and I tried it and failure striked again. I really need experts because the phone is to nice for it not to work and i know it is no such thing as a fully software bricked samsung android phone.
[Nexus S General] TheBassman369:
That is amazing. I thought for sure that you could get it working with no problems.
[Nexus S General] gasolara2002:
I thought i could. I'm still working on it.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
power it off. power it on holding the volume up button and power button at the same time. if it goes into the bootloader mode, then its not bricked.
[Nexus S General] snandlal:
Take out the battery and hold the power button for 20 secs

Uncle Jimmy says hello
[Nexus S General] dino993:
If you can go to bootloader mode, you can flash clockwork recovery and install a rom.
[Nexus S General] gasolara2002:
No luck with the bootloader. Ugh this is a challenge!
[Nexus S General] gasolara2002:
I think i need a JTAG service to revive this thing. I will pay the 50 bucks. By the time i buy all the equipment it wouldn't be worth it.
[Nexus S General] gasolara2002:
I need a pit file to reformat the phone. Please help.
[Nexus S General] TheBassman369:
Have you checked samfirmware.com?
[Nexus S General] snandlal:
Pit is in the. Tar
[Nexus S General] gasolara2002:
I will try it when i get the phone back in a couple of days. I only see the i9020T on there.

And here are some Smurf'd HomeScreenClock numbers that can be used with CHT Tweaks. Enjoy.. (right click & save as..)

Edit: And here's a cab that should change the fonts on your phone to match the one used above. (It's not the official smurfs font but I think goes great with the theme!!)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Matthes42:
Cool. Thanks! And what did you use in order to change the color of the selected items from green into blue?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lnando84:
LOL those are trade secrets my friend. If I told you..I'd have to kill ya!! I'm just messing around:p It's a file in windows called "SmartDial_04.bmp" that's assigned to that contact selector. Here's an additional cab that'll smurf-o-rise the rest of the dialer call history in the dialer. Let me know what you guys think of it all..

Edit: And come on guys lets make this a smurf'd thread and post in the appropriate blue color..

It looks nice, just a question ... could not be changed that picture in the player, depending on how I want?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lnando84:
You sure can..it's the "03808aca_manila" file in windows.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] palokm:
That's nice and thanks for the advice, but I do not know ... so do as you already know English to understand and advise me what to do,..... is hardly difficult, probably not for you, but the Google translation is sorts, too .... if there is no other way, so you'll be a small blue
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdpl@:
Hi Palokm,

Post here the picture you want to use and I will do it for you ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] palokm:
thank you, too............
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdpl@:

[General Questions and Answers] cakruege:
I'm looking for an open source variant of an app like this:

Protector from Alexander Kosenkov

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.androidpassword.core

It protects an app or a part of an app with a password (for example buying in market).

I like the app very much because it only uses two permissions:

-display system-level alerts

-reorder running applications

BIG PROBLEM:

the app has an big security hole

All other programs I found so far use two much permissions, so I'm looking for a open source one.
[Atrix 4G General] mrshowtime:
I had my atrix since the release and i'm now starting to question if i should keep it. Right now i'm running 2.3.4 and the battery is horrible. I browse other phone forums and i see that they have multiple roms different roms with most multiple different developers and have made actual developments and the biggest development we have is barely functional. It seems that most of the developments on the atrix are theme wise from the same devs, no disrespect to devs working on the atrix because i know they have worked hard. And i heard rumors that the atrix community doesn't have much developers to begin with, so the question is should i move on to a different phone?
[Atrix 4G General] munchy_cool:
you need to hold your horses buddy.

a phone has been donated to CM team.work should start soon.

check out the Atrix section on rootzwiki forum, AOSP is being built.

we have CWM - check the dev section

we just got an over clock - check the dev thread

Please do not ask for ETA's.
[Atrix 4G General] kennethpenn:
We had a locked bootloader until very recently. This is why there aren't many ROMs yet. Gingerbread is set for a July (hopefully) release. With the Gingerbread kernel source, ROM developers will have a lot more to work with. At the moment, there's only 1.2.6 (old 2.2.1 Froyo) source available.

Be patient! Of course, if you're loaded with cash, you can go buy additional/replacement phones. For now, the Atrix is arguably the best piece of hardware on AT&T's network.
[Atrix 4G General] speederd:
Also we only saw the bootloader being unlocked recently...

[General Questions and Answers] Mrpcgeekman:
I bought an extra battery for my Atrix 4G, for those times when one just wont push you through. Follow the link below to view the battery. It had good reviews for use with the Atrix 4G. It said that it lasted as long as the stock battery if not longer. Now that I have it and have had a chance to put it through a few charge cycles, I am now aware of the problem. When taking it from fully charged to killing it, the battery lasts at the most half as long as the stock one. The interesting part is if the phone turns itself off from the battery dying and I let it sit for the night off the charger, then when I turn it back on in the morning, the battery has jumped from 0% to 60% by itself. I can repeat this process, but the next morning it will only have 20% opposed to 60%. If the battery operated like this minus the 2 8hr periods it has to sit turned off, then it would stand up to the stock. If I am not being clear then let me know, I hope somebody can help me figure out what is going on.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ogarlen:
Hello! I'm a long-time lurk and this is my first post. Why? Because you folks at XDA are extremely knowledgeable and very helpful! I actually enjoy reading the forums and usually can find my answer using search. Call me a masochist, I guess. I just wish I had the chops to develop and not just be a continuous noobish sponge. I have successfully rooted my own Inspire with Bubby’s method and have flashed several radios and ROMs, no problem (knock on wood).

Anywho, I have searched and have seen similar issues to mine, but I have what I consider a more unique problem (which, if I’m wrong, I’m sure you fine folks will let me know). I attempted to root my brother’s Inspire over the weekend and it is currently showing a black screen with three vibrations and amber light (If I try to go to Hboot manually, I get five whole vibrations with a green light). I can, though, pull the battery for 5 minutes or so, then the phone will boot normally. Although I think it’s on the downgraded ROM, because it shows the funky AT&T splashscreen instead of HTC. What I did was attempt root with Bubby’s and got stuck at the boot screen when the phone was trying to flash the PD98IMG.zip (downgrade I believe) after making the goldcard. It would show that it was trying to read the zip, however I never would get the “volume up to upgrade” option. I tried this three times. When that failed, I tried rooting with the Ace Hack Kit and after creating the goldcard image, when the script tried to reboot the phone to install the downgrade, I got the black screen, amber light with the 3 vibrations. My problem is that I don’t have root, can’t get to recovery from the Hboot screen (shows red exclamation with triangle) and was unable to install Clockworks Mod thru ROM manager because I’m not rooted, so no SuperUser privileges.

What can I do at this point? Maybe off base, but I believe I have somehow corrupted the boot partition or the like, including screwing up Hboot. Is it possible to fix this if I am not able to reboot without pulling the battery? I have tried going thru Bubby’s and the Ace kit again, but always fail when the phone reboots.

Thanks for your help!
[HTC Inspire 4G] schinner16:
I am far from an expert, or even a novice, but to me it sounds like you have a corrupted download for the bubbys one click.... Have you checked the Md5 on the downloaded file?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ogarlen:
I could lie and say yes, but no I didn't check md5 the first go around (although I did the 2nd time I reinstalled, after it screwed up). I did have all antivirus programs uninstalled and firewall turned off.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
It does sound like you got the downgrade rom without root. Go back to the hack kit. With the gold card in the phone, turn on usb debugging and connect to the pc in the charge only mode. Run menu number 3 in the hack kit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
@OP:

Follow the files and instructions in this post to get back to stock so u can start fresh. I followed these to get back to stock only today evening, and it worked.

--------------------

TO RETURN TO STOCK:

Make sure you S-ON (if able) BEFORE you Unroot. The S-On tool needs root permissions to function.

--------------------

Turn the phone on, connect to computer, and perform step 1. Make sure USB debugging is enabled.

Step 1 (S-On):

Run Bubby323's S-On tool: S-On Tool

Step 2 (STOCK ROM in ZIP FORMAT):

Place this .zip file on the root of your SD card. Disable fast boot in settings > applications. Turn off your phone. Hold down the volume down button and the power button at the same time. The phone will reboot into hboot. It will load the ROM automatically. Follow the steps to flash the ROM.

http://www.multiupload.com/JELMZNSKDF

I did this like a couple hours back, and mine's back to stock.

Note: I consolidated the links here from various posts on this forum.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ogarlen:
Diablo: Was posting the reply below, when I saw your message. Would you still recommend I follow your steps to unroot, return to stock and run hack again?

Update: Well, I went thru Bubby’s root process again and was able to get the phone rooted (had to pull battery and wait 4 minutes when it needed to reboot). And I have confirmed root was successful. I also used Bubby’s fix to Eng S-Off (couldn’t hurt, right?). The phone now has the latest Android Revolution with Sense and the radio has been flashed (including full wipe and EXT4 wipe). However, it STILL won’t reboot correctly. I can boot directly into Clockwork from ROM Manager, but if I try to reboot normally (hold down power button and select restart), I get the black screen, amber light and 3 vibrations. Again, pull battery and wait 4 minutes and either power button to boot normally or power and volume down to get to Hboot works fine and goes to Clockwork from Hboot fine also. I guess I can keep up with the batter pull only when I have to manually restart, but WTH? There has got to be a fix for the reboot issue. Any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ogarlen:
Thanks, but tried that earlier on and couldn't continue on with steps in hack kit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Well, actually, wrong, it could hurt. I'm not saying that's the cause of your problems, but you really should've read up a little more before clicking on stuff so nonchalantly.

Eng s-Off means the engineering bootloader. If that process were to fail while in the midst of performing it on your phone, it would most likely hard-brick it.

Not to mention it's unnecessary. It was only included in that rooting method at the time for flashing radios, I believe, and since then a safer method for doing so has come into standard usage that doesn't require eng s-Off.

It's also one method of resolving the cwr blackscreen people were having, where you're actually in cwr, but the screen is black so you can't see what your doing. Not the same black screen your seeing, I don't think, because you're able to at least get into cwr.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
The vibrations with the blinking led, I have seen a few posts with this. Sadly, I haven't seen anyone post a fix yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ogarlen:
Fernandezhjir: I understand your sentiment, however my situation does seem to be a little different than the other posts, so there may be hope yet.

Scott: You're absolutely right (as if you need me to confirm that) that it could hurt. My sarcasm didn't come over very well without a wink-smiley or the like. As I mentioned before, I have read the forums and the other posts on the difference between radio s-off and eng s-off and how dangerous it can be. Actually Bubby's program fairly adequately describes that taking that step can possibly brick your phone and when you should consider taking the risk. I was desperate and dumb and poking fun at myself in my post.

Any advice with my current situation? Everything on the phone is working fine unless I try to normal restart, then I get the amber light with 3 vibrations. Again, battery pull for 4+ minutes then resinsert and power works and I can get to Hboot and Clockwork okay.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Heh. Now that you explain it, I can see the sarcasm. I'm usually good a picking up on it, but you know how these internet textual posts go....smilies are crucial... ;)

As to your problem, there seem to be a few posts in recent days describing the led/vibrations type of symptom.

I don't know if they're interrelated or not. I don't have an answer, but I'm curious and will drop in if I manage to come across any pertinent information.
