could u be a bit more specific?phone is working??? calls etc???or are u stuck somewhere????
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souloftwilight:
As I said, the screen came on but no backlight. The phone works fine except for the backlight I'm trying to figure out if it's a hardware issue or a software issue. I don't know how much more specific I can get really except that the only way to see the screen is to hold it at a certain angle so the light hits it just right.

Hi all

im from audi and I have motorola xoom wifi and3g

I need the update 3.1 for it

please help to get it
[Acer Iconia A500] lamajstro:
As a special forum for the A501 is still missing, I am asking here:

Is there any custom rom with HC 3.1 or 3.2 that also supports the 3G modem in the A501?

Acer is making fools out of us not providing an update to 3.1. That's ridiculous and unacceptable... I am so angry, you won't believe it. :mad:
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
there is no ROM for A501 here... sorry

I wonder how people get A501, in thailand it's not available.... yet... :D
[Acer Iconia A500] lamajstro:
Well, in Germany it is already available - even in smaller stores but also in the big ones, like Amazon.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
I see

We will have it normally next week here... but anyway. I don't want get bored with 2 sim cards and 2 bills :D

I wish you luck to find asap what you look for, but you need to wait that the dev hand on a A501
[Acer Iconia A500] AcerA501-User:
Hello,

any news about a501 custom roms? :)

THanks
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Nothing as yet. Why don't you try PMing one of the ROM makes in the Dev section and asking them nicely?

They'll need a dump of an A501 ROM to do much, though.
[Acer Iconia A500] AcerA501-User:
Thanks for your nice idea. :)

I will try to contact them. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Lorthirk:
Definetely +1 for a 3.1 or 3.2 rom for A501. Moreover, I'm here to help by providing anything I can from my A501. Plus, I tried several roms on my HTC Desire, so I hope I can be helpful in something (unfortunately I never cooked a rom).

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedy_11:
cm7 can be flashed over miui, because miui use a cm7 base. just factory reset and flash cm7

if it is froyo Continuum then in theory it should work.

Turns out my phone was not stuck but it took 30 minutes to turn on. Why might this be?

My r800a is stuck turning on. It gets past the Sony Ericsson logo but then gets stuck at the rogers logo. Its been like this for 15 minutes. I pulled the battery and tried it but the same problem keeps happening.

My phone is rooted and is on Android 2.3.2
[Xperia Play General] speedyink:
Rogers rapes the firmware?

Seriously, When mine had the rogers firmware it took foreeeeever to turn on. Not 30 minutes, but it did approach 10 minutes once.

Other than that I dunno man, is it consistent?
[Xperia Play General] Gilgamesh1:
Verizon's version loads up very quickly ...30 minutes is crazy!
[Xperia Play General] Deleted member 2488575:
Well when I first got it it was 4-5 minutes. Right now it takes 30 minutes I've tried it 2 times and both were a bit above 30 minutes.

I actually just noticed something strange. When I am using a Live wallpaper it takes forever but when I am using a standard wallpaper its around 4 minutes.

I guess now I know to change my wallpaper before shutting down. Since I found a temporary solution it won't be that bad but I still want to know why this is happening. I may try a reset in a few days.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
That's why I flashed uk generic... 25seconds on a turn on. If I installed a lot of Apps before the reboot, it takes 60seconds. Rogers was 3 minutes + everytime

[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Let's see if HTC has corrected the crooked screen issue with later hardware versions.

To see if you have a crooked screen: turn the display on and have enough ambient light so you can see the blackout on the top layer of glass. Compare the edge of the lit LCD underneath the blackout. Is the LCD "square" with the blackout or does the LCD look rotated slightly beneath it?

To check your hardware rev, go to Menu, Settings, About Phone, Hardware Information, and look at the hardware rev at the top.

Here's the thread that started this.

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Again with this, another thread? Man we need to get this phone rooted soon, the way complaints don't happen as much :P

Thank God fixxer didn't get this phone lol
[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
Agreed. After root people will be too busy to worry about small imperfections
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
It's not a thread. It's a poll. And it's probably the only way for us to find out if and when HTC fixes the crooked screen issue so that people who have the problem bad enough know which hardware revs it affects.

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] joehunni:
I can see why you'd make a poll for this, but I don't think they've produced multiple hardware revisions yet?
[HTC EVO 3D] Droga:

I've noticed this on mine but I'm not convinced it's not an optical illusion caused by the 3d. I only see it when looking at my phone from a weird angle and when I take a closer look at the edges everything lines up correctly.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
I still don't see what people are talkin about everything is fine on mine screen is lined up good. How many of u have the camera button rattle when typing fix for it is a case or use the button a **** load seems to fix it :D
[HTC EVO 3D] ninja984:
I guess you got a good one then. My first one had a good screen but i replaced it because of the green pics. Hopefully the next one I get will be good if not Ill go to something else for a little while and come back when its good again.
[HTC EVO 3D] jxr94:
Mine is definitely crooked, unless there is some illusion some of us see and some of use don't We just need cm7 to fix this! (being facetious)
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Id be very interested if those that say their screen is perfect could take a close pic of the phone with the notification bar pulled down and post it up here.

Itd help those of us that see it on our own compare to what you guys say is straight on yours.
[HTC EVO 3D] sniperkill:
I know that my first 3D had a crooked screen. If you would hold it flat ( with the bottom of the phone even with eye level ) and look down the edge of the left side of the phone, you could see how crooked it was. At the top, there was a gap about 1/16" and at the bottom left, there was 0". So I went back to the Sprint store and showed it to the tech, and he was like," wow" that's bad. So he replaced my phone. Luckily, my new phone screen is perfect. Trust me, I looked at EVERYTHING before I left, LOL.

Both my phones were hardware 2
[HTC EVO 3D] oOMavrikOo:
Is this crooked screen something that can be fixed through software update?
[HTC EVO 3D] tsalate:
I guess I'm one of the lucky because my screen is perfectly straight.
[HTC EVO 3D] ninja984:
The notification bar under the clock is suppose to be round but the tilted screens are straight. Thats how my notification bar when I booted the second one but I decided to a factory reset and that part became round. I thought maybe mine was just something with the software but it's not and my screen is still slightly tilted.
[HTC EVO 3D] parmend:
002 and no crooked screen
[HTC EVO 3D] jxr94:
Will someone without a crooked screen take a picture of the top left corner of their phone screen and the bottom right corner with the notification bar down so that we can compare please?

[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Just wanted to report that I finally went to the Sprint store yesterday to get a replacement. The new one, delivered to the store Friday, July 15, has a perfectly straight screen with no dead pixels. It still has hardware rev 0002 but when we set the new one next to my old one, it became really obvious how crooked my old one really was. Even the manager said, "Wow, your old one is REALLY crooked". Manager says he's now going to swap his out after seeing the new/straight one I got since his is crooked too (although not as bad as the one I traded in).

BTW, shout out to TeamWin and all the crews making batch files over on the dev forum and also to the MyBackup Pro app. Within 10 minutes of getting home with the new phone I had done temp root and restored a backup of all my apps, home screen, widgets, contacts, SMS messages, calendar, etc. from the old phone just before the swap. It's nice to be able to hit a button or two and get the phone back to exactly like it was, completed Angry Birds Rio levels and all. :)

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] corybucher:
Not sure what everyone is complaining about, I have version 2 and have no issues. Maybe take it in and get it swapped out.
[HTC EVO 3D] sn0b0ard:
Revision 2 straight screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
We're complaining about the fact that 36% of us have crooked screens. Whether or not you get a straight one is just luck of the draw at this point.

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] corybucher:
Swap it for another one.
[HTC EVO 3D] mayfield103:
I think it maybe software related. Sometimes mine is crooked sometimes its not. Weird.

don't forget to bring a towel!
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Definitely not software. The LCD panel below the digitizer is physically crooked. You can follow the lines of pixels on the actual LCD and tell that it is crooked. Once I swapped mine for a new one, the new one was perfectly straight (with the same software: I restored a root backup).

Mike

i have awful memory and don't remember what these came from/what they are

[Galaxy S II General] David9723:
I'm getting random crashes and then the phone shuts off and reboots itself. It has done this when i open up the market app and a few other apps, i have not installed any new apps in awhile i'm using KE7 rooted. It's also done it when surfing the web and when using the stock music app.

Everything was working great before for weeks so i am guessing it's a app that has been updated that is doing it?

Are there any logs to look at to see what is causing the crash and reboot?

Try a different kernal. Some are more stable then others.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FATEOWNZYOU:
I am in California right now, so in that case i cant really update, or constantly go through my BIBLE that i have made.

Im pretty much wanting other people's opinions. i am wanting a Kernel with high OverClocking. Such as 1.5 to 1.6 or higher if its been done while iv been gone.

I have overclocked to 1.6 and my phone still worked fine, so i know my phone can handle it. The only problem I have had with it though is that when the phone sits for awhile, it wouldn't unlock the screen.. (which became a big problem when trying to wake up to my alarm for going to work at 5am)

So what are some good stable overclock kernels (Birgertime's Trigger CM7 Redux - Or just regular Cm7 if need be) in your guys' Opinion

I am getting ready to move to a new city and have a long drive there. I am going to need GPS for a long time to know where I’m going. I am trying to decide if I should get a car mount and try to use my Tbolt as my GPS or just buy a Garmin unit.

What do you think about using the Tbolt as your dedicated GPS compared to a Garmin GPS unit?
[Thunderbolt General] ScoobarSTI:
The android navigation (since droid 1) has been the best Navigation I've ever had.

the reroute/street view is my favorite part of it. Coming back from Chicago there was a huge accident, It said Traffic rerouting and took me around the whole back up and saved me a bunch of time.

Also used it while delivering pizzas b/c the Garmin didn't find a lot of places my phone did
[Thunderbolt General] bobsbbq:
How do you enable this function or view it? I have never seen this.
[Thunderbolt General] ScoobarSTI:
Streetview?

You download it from the market.

It's cool because when you're near where you need to be it shows you a picture of what you should be seeing.

if you take a look in the Thunderbolt Accessories just search "GPS mounts" and theres quite a few reviews. Other wise when I get the extra cash I'm picking up the mount from Verizon it's only 30 bucks.

If you want preloaded maps, Navigon is awesome. Google Navigation is great on its own though. I wouldn't buy a dedicated GPS myself.
[Thunderbolt General] ILMF:
If you are rooted, you might make sure you have all three radios on your SD card. If you hit an area where your current radio flips out, just flash one of the others. Its what Is do. Here in St. Louis, for me, the original MR2 leak works best. I've tried all three.

courtesy of my rooted bolt
[Thunderbolt General] HawkStream:
I just ordered the Verizon mount. FYI - its listed as $29.99 but when you add it to your cart its only $22 so they give you a discount, or they did me anyway.

I have not rooted my Tbolt yet just because I have not had a need. Why would I need to root it for the radio? not sure I understand what I would need that for. I am moving to Boston by the way so will be using it heavily in that area. I’m currently in Kansas City.

[Thunderbolt General] ScoobarSTI:
Idk mine just does it i think i dl something called traffic but i dont remember
[Thunderbolt General] nucher:
On most HTC phones with Sense they have an app called "Car Panel" that is similar to Car Home. I think Car Home is much better but since your running the stock Sense it may not show up in the market. I'm attaching the Car Home app and the launcher apk that enables it to show up in the app drawer. When I first got my Evo it had Sense on it and would not see Car Home in the market. In order to install Car Home I would first install com.google.android.carhome.apk first, which is the actual app. Then the CarHomeLauncher.apk second which enable the app to show up in the app drawer with the rest of your apps. Its worth a try as Car Home is so much better than car panel. You may have to check mark unknown sources in your application settings.

As someone previously stated Navigon is also excellent and doesn't rely on a data connection to work. It has all the map data on the SD card and uses your phones GPS chip to guide you. If you don't have phone/data service it continues to work. It would be cheaper than a standalone GPS and give you something to fall back on in case Google Navigation takes a crap. GPS is a game changer in a new big city.

Best of luck on your trip and new life.

The few times I've used my Tbolt for GPS, it's always led me to my destination with no issues. I did find though that it sometimes doesn't take the route that makes the most sense and routes you into a trip that adds unnecessary miles. I was playing around one day using it to get to somewhere I was very familiar with and it kept trying to send me on a route that would have doubled the time it took to get there.

VZW has a generic phone holder that I use now...case, battery, etc...

It helps me remember my phone. Times are tough, GPS left out get stolen quite often.

With the pretty good speech recognition, I can use my TBolt as an MP3 player, GPS unit...I can reply to emails and texts and make/receive calls over bluetooth that's built into my car. These phones now a days really are do it all devices....
