[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XD):
I was having the exact same problem with the up arrow only on, but I called them and they told me to remove my battery and 4G card for 10 seconds, and maybe they did something on their end, but when I put it back in it worked perfectly. I've had 10+ different times when the internets stopped working on my Tbolt, but the customer service was able to solve it every time, strange that it didn't work for you. Hope your 4G starts working again soon, I know how annoying it can be when it randomly stops working :/

[Android Software Development] beerandt:
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but this is my first jump into android app development-

I'm *trying* to develop a cross platform gis data entry solution for editing shapefile/ geo-database polygon (or point) attributes in the field. Network connectivity can only be relied upon before going to, or upon returning from, the field. Is there an android friendly method for using a (any) type of geo-database file? Right now, I'm planning on exporting polygons to a kml/kmz or similar, and separately export the attributes to sqlite for editing. Upon return from the field, the edited sqlite rows can be used to update the (server-side) geo-database attributes.

However, I would eventually like to be able to directly edit the geometry, but am not sure if this means having to write something from scratch to read from a local geodatabase file, or if some sort of *local* android geodatabase solution already exists.

Just trying to get an idea of the initial direction I should be taking, as I have gis programing and database experience, but haven't ever done any native android development.

Any suggestions or links to related references would be appreciated!

Thanks!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrongfeifong:
this piece of crap phone started to go worser by the minute.

First, it heats up the battery whenever i use wifi or 3g and it will also shut down. Switch battery and it will last a bit longer then still shut down.

Now, it give me this problem where a 91% charged battery would turn out to be red under 5% once insert. The battery indicator will recover slowly over time for no reason.

And i am also having trouble charging the battery by phone, if i charge the phone by usb when the phone is ON, the phone will heat up and turn off and continue to heat up for infinity until unplug.

I don't know what should i do with my x10 anymore... i am not paying out another 700 bucks CAD for a new phone in canada after just 1 years use *out of warranty*.

anyone have a fix for these? or know how do i revert back to 1.6 android?

Where is justice! Samsung should crush Sony already.
[Surround General] jackkaiserwork:
I have an HTC Surround that I cant get to boot past htc logo and if i try to hard rest it goes to spl screen. Where can i get the software to reflash it. I also have another microsd that i can change out if that is bad
[Surround General] jackkaiserwork:
still working on

So I replaced the mirco sd and tried to do the restore using the power and volume buttons and still would not get it to try and boot more then a few secs and stop at the htc screen. I also flashed the stock att rom that I got off xda but still no luck. My last chance is trying a new battery today are there any more suggestions
[Surround General] Laquox:
My surround did the same thing recently. It's a problem surrounds have. Unfortunately you have tried the 3 most common solutions.

1: reflash with stock rom

2: Change out sd card

3: hard reset

The only way I know of to get a working one after you have tried those 3 things is hope it's under warranty. :-/
[Surround General] v1nsai:
Where did you get that stock at&t rom? I've been all through the developer section and all I see are telus and cingular roms. I've got a phone from the shop that's stuck on the htc logo and replacing the sd card hasn't fixed it. I tried to flash a telus rom because hey what the hell do I have to lose but RUU wasn't able to establish an ActiveSync connection on the htc logo screen looping repeatedly. Is there a way to force it into a sort of download mode from the htc logo to do the flashing from?

---------- Post added at 02:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

i'm guessing this should work:

C. Windows Phone 7 ROM Flashing Instructions

1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder

2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone

3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode

4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button

5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable

6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop

7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen

8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above

9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen
[Surround General] equisgroup:
Do You still need help about this?

Basically you need to download DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH from this forum, this will allow you to flash a custom rom. The ROM installed at the phone must be a NODO one because mango roms updates the loader and are not compatible.

For apply it you must put the phone on loader. Connect the phone to the usb, turn it off, turn it on but holding volume down key.

Once there you will see the 3 color screen and will say USB run the DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH and follow the steps.

The phone will restart and showing again the 3 color screen but with HSPL now you can install DFT ROM. DFT ROM is basically a custom Windows Phone with the option to sideload apps you just run ROMUpdateUtility.exe from the DFT ROM downloaded and it will upgrade your OS to DFT Version.
[Surround General] sweatshopking:
Now what? SPL too high!

My brothers HTC surround has crashed, and fails to load the OS. i can get to the bootloader, but it's

spl-4.2.2250.1 (129185) MNG

i've got HSPL and RSPL, but they say DON'T TRY IF NOT 1.X SPL OR IF IT SAYS MNG. his says both. he was running mango, and i'm just trying to reinstall a stock rom. I'm wondering what advice any of you might have. I've reinstalled roms on Samsung devices, but not on an HTC, so i'm not sure what all this is about, or what the consequences are of proceeding. any help would be great.

Thanks dudes.

USB

It does display USB. If i leave it on for like an hour, eventually, i just discovered, windows DOES load, and it says "your memory is corrupt" it does connect to the computer, and it is detected by my pc, and it does display USB. I'm going to try to put in a new SD card, but i'm wondering once i do that, will i be able to flash the retail rom to it, with that spl.
