Well i don't know much about android SDK or java programming :D . I wanted to know whether there is a way to rename the package name of an app to install it along with the pre-installed app so that you don't have to root your phone to remove the stock apps and install the new app alongside. One example is the brut maps. It has two versions. One which needs the stock google maps to replaced while the other one just installs. One case where you may need it is (only required till the time you are not rooted) when the ddjp2 had swype but was not working. In that case we would have installed the renamed swype alongside and then we could have got swype to work without rooting (tho now we have a working update JP4, but still there are cases when you need a renamed apk). So any idea ?
[HTC ChaCha] d.furtuna:
Hi all,

I'm new to Android and ChaCha. However I read pretty extensively about accessing bootloader / recovery mode, and still I'm not able to access it. I tried:

- Volume Down button, and then Power (hold them for up to 1 min)

- Volume Up button, and then Power (hold them for up to 1 min)

- Arrow up button, and then Power (hold them for up to 1 min)

- and even the Home button (on touch screen), and then Power (hold them for up to 1 min)

and nothing works... Any ideas? Or is my phone somehow locked (S-ON???) and that's why I can't access it?

Thanks for your help!
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
Settings, power, fastboot - un ticked.
[HTC ChaCha] d.furtuna:
Thank you.

Turned the setting off, and it worked with Volume Down button, and then Power (for around 5 sec).

I have HBOOT 1.04.0000, and S-ON :(

Now I'll have to find how to root it, or even how to flash it to S-OFF...

is there anyone who can show me how to hack Zen in Zenonia 3 ? i'. tried to hack 16m Zen but in set permission's step, my edited file can not save new permission in order to change Zen ingame, so the game is crashed after i had copied option file.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayzstyle123:
Hi

What Android phone are you using? make sure your phone is rooted and if it is rooted you should grant the Hex Editor the permission (from rooting) and also make sure that the game is fully closed..because it cannot rewrite the option.sav if the game is running.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4ng:
You must install zenonia ver 1.0.1. Google it. It work. If you downloaded from market, it's 1.0.4, and it would crashed if you hack it.

Sorry for my poor english.

if i'm already on v 1.0.5, and i uninstall, then re-install 1.0.1, would my game data still be there?

and if so, how would re-installing 1.0.5 at a later time affect my game data?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maksharma231:
You better back up your game data before uninstalling.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creeping_death:
Hey fellow EVO's!

I'm looking for a solution to the poor audio quality when recording in a high volume setting (concerts, jam sessions) when using the internal microphone.

Yes, I know that it is not the phone's main use as a personal recorder for this sort of scenarios, but as we all know, the iPhone does it a lot better and I'd really like to show up the iPhone geeks if possible by using an external mic with a recording app.

There's this multifunction audio cable from HTC that I've been thinking about buying and it's called an HTC YC A300 Multifunction audio cable. You can find it on Amazon.com

Any experience, creative ideas, development or anything of that sort that would help me out would be great as I'm sure other people would be able to benefit from the info as well!

Thanks in advance...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
I haven't done it, but there is a microphone input in the headphone jack -- it's intended to support a wired headset. With the right cable you should be able to use an external mic.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
The app Tape Machine records uncompressed wav files. Even with the internal microphone, it actually makes very decent recordings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creeping_death:
Thanks for the reply guys.

Do you think trying a Sony ECM DS30P might work? it's a direct connection compressor microphone.

I will definitely check out Tape machine. I've got the lite version now and i'm eager to try it now! Is it successful in loud environments?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
It's better than the built in mic of the phone. Far, far from decent though.

That completely depends on the quality of the microphone, and how sensitive it is.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creeping_death:
Well, I just bought myself one of those nifty little Sony compressor mics and I'm going to see how that works out. I may need a convertor to go in to the headphone jack so it recognizes the input, but I'm not sure.

Another way you could go possibly would be to us one of those multifunction cable things. The model is called: HTC P6300 Multifunction Audio Cable YC A200. There's also a YC A300 as well but I'm not sure of the difference between the two is besides the size.

Any new findings?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creeping_death:
So i got that sony mic and a convertor so the phone thinks i'm using a headset...and with some apps, with the convertor it works and some, without, it works too. The only issue i'm having is that the internal mic is still on and working while recording. I want the external mic that I'm plugging in to be the ONLY mic it's using and I'd like to control the input volume.

Any insight as to how we could do that?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyman:
I have been looking for a solution to this for over a year. It really sucks that everything else about the device is great except this one feature. As for the iPhone, it sounds like Apple has utilized some kind of filter to reduce the bass the phone records (in my experience, the bass is what causes the distortion in the recording).

If Apple can do it, why can't HTC? :?
[Droid X General] KevTN:
Ok here is the skinny of my question...

I am not a developer. I have looked on the market and tried a couple of the one avalible there without meetnig my needs.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciate it.
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Rather than looking for a specific app, how about using a spreadsheet?

If you set up a sheet for collecting the data (and possibly use google docs to do this, so you can input data on the phone while 'in the field',

then possibly some analysis sheets that take that data and manipulate it?

Is the glass protecting the dual cameras in the rear / back made of Gorilla Glass?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jeremiah239:
Its plastic...
[HTC EVO 3D] Wiley_11:
I don't know if it's GG but if you look real close at the LED's you will see some type of screen protector film. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Jeremiah239:
The LEDs are separate from the camera cover/lens.
[HTC EVO 3D] babyschmoof:
Confirmed with HTC, no GG.
[HTC EVO 3D] Arnezie:
Its only gorilla glass on the screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] Night·Fire:
There is no Gorilla Glass anywhere on the EVO 3D. HTC has confirmed it several times with many of us.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jeremiah239:
This is correct!
[HTC EVO 3D] Neo3D:
Hmmm, you're right! Is that really a screen protector over the cameras? If so, nice job HTC!
[HTC EVO 3D] Neo3D:

[HD2 General] boxxinali33:
Hey guys, I need some help with my shiny new brick. So I had android running on the phone from nand. So one day while using it, I decided to clear my information from it within android (Settings>Privacy>Factory Data reset). Anyway, this completely F'd my phone. So what I did was try to install a new nand android rom, but that did'nt work either. So then I said let me go back to windows mobile. THAT WONT WORK EITHER!!!

Where I am now:

HSPL installation is successful when I try it (spl version 2.0.8)

Windows mobile stock 6.5 gets stuck at 8%

Task 29% gets stuck at 0%

flashing any rom from the sd card doesnt work either

I feel like I've tried every approach, to no avail. I've read over every thread known to man with this problem, no answer. They all say either task 29 or flash the stock rom, neither of which are working here.

Currently the phone gets stuck on the Stick together screen, then just resets again.

Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
[HD2 General] blakphoenix:
Question... was it a recovery zip or direct nand rom?
[HD2 General] booze_pistol:
Try reformatting the SD card fat32 from the computer, write a fresh image file to it and try to flash from SD again. I don't know why but if I don't reformat the SD card each time, my HD2 never takes a flash. It might not work for you, but it's worth a try. I hope it helps.

Is there a way to switch data roaming on/off easily on the X2? Somehow I do not seem to find any options (it is very easy on Android phones through a dedicated menu setting in the preferences). Thanks for suggestions!
[XPERIA X2 General] mariusburcus:
Normally if you set up ActiveSync properly and you uncheck in Schedule "use above settings when roaming" you ought to be safe. Maybe you should also check the Fast Gps settings to update satellite data manually only. This is about it when it comes to default apps. If you have installed other apps, rss readers, email clients or web browsers you should pay more attention to their connection habits.

Or you can try these apps:

No Data In Roaming: automatically restricts data traffic when roaming.

Data Controller : manually switch data connections.

[HTC EVO 3D] DozeBeatS:
Ok, Im posting this in the Evo thread because this is where I spend most of my time and would like to share this with my fellow Evo users. My GF showed me our bill the other day and we noticed that we have been paying taxes for 2 different states and like 3 counties. We moved from NY to NJ about 6 years ago and updated our address with Sprint. Well it seems something went wrong and as I said, we have been paying double possibly even triple the taxes we were suppose to. I contacted Sprint and they opened up a case number on it. I am still waiting to here back from them but by the looks of it, we should be getting a nice chunk of money back. Doing some half assed math, we may get anywhere from $700-$1000 back. Just thought I would spread the word. Make sure you go check your bill and look under Sprint surcharges and taxes and see if they are billing you correctly.
[HTC EVO 3D] squshy 7:
Hmm.

Id like to start off by saying that this seems to be a common problem with carriers. When I was on verizon, I once noticed that while I was paying full PA taxes, I was also paying a particular tax because for some unknown reason my "service area" was in Florida. (Even though my area code was Ohio lol)

I never brought it up, though, I simply had to change it online.

That being said, I'm cautious to say you'll get your money back. You probably will, simply because it is sprint and they're very careful about providing good customer service; I'm cautious, though, because I would think all that extra money got passed on to the governments, not to sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] DozeBeatS:
Regardless of whether or not thats true, it was Sprints mistake that caused it. So I feel it is their responsibility to refund the money. Also, from what Ive gathered, it seems they bill to where you live. Has nothing to do with area codes on your phone, or where you purchased your phone, etc. You only pay taxes for where you live.
[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
I doubt you get a refund, once the government collects that tax it ain't coming back. Errors like that always go to the government. I found out that I was paying too much real estate tax because the county had my house listed as having an extra bathroom and bedroom and the county said we will adjust your tax bill but any taxes already paid will not be returned. Enjoy the lower bill, but don't expect a refund. It was your responsibility to notice the error not Sprints.
[HTC EVO 3D] kong97:
They may go back 3 months at most. Most companies will state that paying your bill is acknowledging that it is correct.
[HTC EVO 3D] weidnerj:
I seem to accumilate taxes depending on the area that I am calling from. I live right on the Kansas / Missouri border and get taxes from state / country and even city from time to time. OP, not sure if you are picking up cell towers that far away or travel to those areas. Guess that we are just use to paying taxes here that we don't even question them any more...
[HTC EVO 3D] rabid platypus:
Dude that like 5 years of taxes! How long ago did you move?
[HTC EVO 3D] 00_MACKIE_00:
You share part of the responsibility here by checking your bill every month. I would be shocked if you saw any money from over 90+ days. I went through a similiar deal on a business account. It took way too much time to go back further than that and quite frankly your business is not that important to them.
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
Whoa there. Do the phones still have the old area code from where you moved from? That might be why. If so, it isn't Sprint's fault.
[HTC EVO 3D] spookytay:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1418426/posts
[HTC EVO 3D] DozeBeatS:
Regardless of my outcome, whether I get a bunch of money refunded, or $10, I really posted this to help other people. Just check your bill to make sure your not being over charged. This is more directed towards people that moved. I feel Sprint should definitely take half the blame. Sure, I should be aware of any bills I pay, but we did the right thing when we moved by notifying Sprint of our new address. They should have made the necessary adjustments so these overages never occurred. Even if we get nothing back, we will certainly have a lower bill each month.
[HTC EVO 3D] kaos420:
omg i just noticed im paying 2 taxes as well. talking to them now. had 2 address listed on my account, not cool . ill post my outcome,i moved in 2007 so i figure they owe me around 155.33 some bull in chat he created a bill issue. it should be resolved in 3-5 business days. good look.below is some lines from my converstation not all of it or in order but you get the point.

[HTC EVO 3D] jackpearce:
About a year ago I started getting 10% off my bill because I belong to a credit union. Coincidentally, my "sprint tax" went up to $12 a month. On a $129.00 a month plan, I now pay after my "rebate" with smartphone tax and insurance included, about $175- $180. It's starting to get ridiculous.
[HTC EVO 3D] siralston:
happen to me also i was paying taxes for 3 different county's for over 3 years every time i moved they added a new county taxs they only went back 1 year
[HTC EVO 3D] madsquabbles:
not true in my case. the county I'm in has higher taxes than the city 50 miles from me. with both sprint and Verizon I request a number from Richland county and I pay taxes to that county and not mine. saves me about $3 per month.
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
I'm going on a rant here and if this nets me any haters, so be it.

Just because you don't notice something ahead of time doesn't mean it's Sprint's fault. Just because tax laws are the way they are doesn't mean it's Sprint's fault. Too many people IMO are trying to nickle and dime every little single freaking thing and it's disgusting. Am I jealous? Hell no. It's like those threads that show up that are "I just called retentions...look what I got!" And everyone tries to one up them.
[HTC EVO 3D] Uchennadi:
Yeah, I don't understand all these taxes sprint is charging me either. I just switched from tmobile with an individual plan that was pretty much the same plan as what I have now with sprint, but sprint charges me around $20/mo in taxes, where tmobile only ever charged around $7/mo. I'm really considering switching back to tmobile cuz I can't help but feel like I'm paying too much. I'll talk to them and see what they can do first tho.
[HTC EVO 3D] kaos420:
it is most definitely sprints fault. when you update your address with them. they should be removing your old one from your account. in my case they didn't and left both addresses. how is that not their fault. it certainly isn't mine. i did my part by providing them a new address for my bill. they should better train there employees.
[HTC EVO 3D] electric contractor:
yous too

Even thuo its been that long its also your problem too like watching yourr bank account I see that you will get max 3 months
[HTC EVO 3D] DozeBeatS:
This is no nickel and dime, they overcharged me and I want my cash. Im also all for any thread that will get us some money off our bill. These companies charge way too much money for the service they provide. If I can save something here and there, I'm all for it.
