Search! I remember at least 4-5 different threads about the exact same problem u r describing.

You've done a great job at isolating any software side issues, but all the other threads conclude it is a hardware issue (red button is used more, wears out faster, causes it to mess with the touch digitizer circuitry that is located close to the "strip" under the buttons bar).
[HD2 General] M4ceman:
Ah I'm sorry man, I tried searching but I guess my search skills are still noobish haha.

Well I really appreciate it, I guess I'll start looking for some fixes now :(!!
[General Questions and Answers] BlackDragonWitch:
Can anyone give me a simplified walkthrough to root this Froyo 2.2 please?
[HTC Inspire 4G] helushune:
Here's a puzzler.

I recently started using my automotive GPS again (Garmin Nuvi 1450; same as the 1490) but I've noticed it's acting haywire whenever my Inspire is even close to it. For example, the accuracy becomes off by miles and it thinks the elevation is roughly 3000 feet when the elevation of the area I live is 150 feet above sea level.

Suspecting something, I powered off my Inspire and the Garmin immediately went back to being dead accurate so it has to be something with the Inspire.

I run my phone with WiFi and GPS disabled, I live in a HSUPA enabled area and my phone is set to use all available bands; it's generally in HSUPA mode. The rom I'm using is based off the Cyanogen nightlies, LorDmod kernel, 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2 radio.

If anyone's experienced something similar or has any potential fixes that would be great. Putting my phone on airplane mode every time I get in my car isn't a very viable solution.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
Have you tried Garmin Customer Support? It sounds like the problem is possibly with the Garmin, and not the Inspire. A stand alone GPS unit should be able to withstand interference form a cell phone, IMO...
[HTC Inspire 4G] helushune:
It doesn't happen when my brother's Thunderbolt or my old iPhone 4 is around it so I'm kind of confused. I haven't called up Garmin yet, just noticed it going haywire today, but I'll give that a shot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
Yeah weird problem if only confined to the Inspire device. I have noticed for YEARS on AT&T with multiple handsets (including the iPhone) that something with the native signal interferes with the landline phones and some computers with stand alone speakers in the form of static and beeps that make it sound like I am trying to contact the Mother Ship...only at my employers cubes though...
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
GPS frequencies are at approximately 1227 and 1575 MHz. The Inspire cell phone radio transmits in the 850, 900, 1800 or 1900 MHz bands depending on whether it's using EDGE, 3G, etc. So in theory it shouldn't interfere, unless some weird harmonic frequency situation is going on. You didn't say if you're using bluetooth, but these frequencies are in the 2400+ range (close to the WiFi range), so once again there should be no interference. It may be worth turning it off just to see (if you haven't tried this already).

Since the other 2 phones you mentioned don't cause the same problem, this does potentially point to your Inspire as the source. Maybe for some unknown reason your Inspire is poorly shielded (possibly due to some sort of defect during assembly) and is therefore spitting out more interference than it should. Or your radio is not running within spec due to some sort of hardware or software issue, and is spitting out spurious interference.

Personally I would try flashing the stock radio version 26.06.06.30. This is the stock radio that is FCC approved to run on the Inspire, and therefore has passed the FCC testing and certification for spurious signals, interference, etc. Get the version that comes with the RCData file, in the radio thread in the dev section.

One more thing to check: make sure the cell antenna (built into the inside cover of the SIM/SD cover at the bottom of the phone) is making good contact with the phone when the cover is on the phone. Look for the little gold contacts, and make sure they are clean and sticking up slightly with a "springy" tension to them, so as to make good contact. The reason I say to check this, is because if your antenna isn't connected 100% properly, the cell radio may increase its transmission power to compensate, which might also increase the interference it creates. This is pure conjecture. :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
What about Bluetooth?

Took too long. Just listen to Henry. He's a friggin genius. I think. He always seem to help me.

Sent from my Inspire 4G using the power of the dark side.
[HTC Inspire 4G] helushune:
Yar, that's the GSM signal interfering with electronics (usually cheap speakers) that aren't properly magnetically shielded against the GSM frequencies AT&T uses.

EDIT:

@biglittlegato - Good question, I always leave bluetooth disabled as well; I never use it. So much so I forgot this phone supported it. Heh.

@henrybravo - Cheers. I'll reflash back to 26.06.06.30 with the RID and see what happens.

EDIT2:

Also fired off an email to Garmin as well. Their response time window is 3 days so we'll see what they say as well.

The odd thing is that it was working fine when I drove to work this morning. Maybe it has something to do with the network load. Bleh, I'm just throwing stuff out there at this point.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Haha I know EXACTLY what static/beeping sound you're talking about. My old Motorola prehistoric flip phone and maybe even my razr used to produce that sound whenever I was sitting at my computer, just before the incoming call would ring my phone. Annoying as hell.

Hasn't done it on my newer phones...Captivate and inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
Yes the good ol' RAZR... when I had this old alarm clock that is never really off...would start the Home World transmissions 5 seconds before the phone would ring with an incoming call...I be drunk n think it was magic...well not really but sort of....
[HTC Inspire 4G] helushune:
Cheers for your guys' help in this matter. There were a few updates for the nuvi that Garmin sent me and I flashed the 26.06.06.30 radio and the issue seems to have dissipated. Still not sure what exactly fixed it or if it was just a GPS reading fluke but all is well now.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Vaddy23:
I was wondering if anyone was actually using the SGS2 on Tmobile USA at the moment. If so can you tell me how edge speeds are if your browsing the web, downloading apps, etc? Is a lot of the functionality lost without 4G? Thanks ahead of time... :D

Is there any way to get Blackberry Messenger on Android and get a pin and stuff. or can i install bbos on my my android and use bbm.

or when will bbm be ported to android

thx
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
Well AFAIK there is no bbm app for android and I believe bbm is copy writhed so I don't think any dev is planing on porting it anytime soon and risk legal trouble, as for Blackberry os being ported I've never heard of it being done but I'm not sure.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help :/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] volsey:
You want bbm that bad, get a blackberry.

Unfortunately all there has been is rumors that eventually bbm will be open to both iOS and Android, but again rumors.

Nobody would even try porting bbos to and android as it's awful. Don't hold your breath on that one.

There's many alternatives, such as Whatsapp and live messenger (i think), which are open on multiple platforms such as bb, ios, android. But I understand it's not the same, most of my friends have BB's, very very very few actually use something other than bbm as a result of it;s popularity alone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuljit55:
hmmm, i have never been a fan of BBM but my friend switched from a BB to android he's in to programming loads, he brought one of those cheap old BB pearls just for the pin and he uses BBM from his HTC sensation with that BB pearl pin, making the app think its running from a BB pearl. I would ask him but since he's gone uni i hardly ever see him. maybe at the end of augest when he comes back home for abit. besides if you say its such a felony he would never go public with this hack. as he's studying to be a solicitor.

there have been so much rumors about this. but until now, there is no such thing as "bbm on android". all that exist on the nets about that are all fake. therefore if you need to use bbm that badly, you'll have to carry 2 phones with you all time. but dude, don't you ever throw away your android just because of that reason! :good:

Not for our phone yet
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Ltilt2:
oh you got to be kidding me!! this is too easy here. I was going to tell you to flash one of those miui but I was once like you. THE ONLY ROMS AVAILABLE FOR THE INFUSE ARE; INFUSED BY GTG465x, REFUSE BY H8RIFT AND BIONIX BY NOPCODEX90!!!!!!!!! IF you flash any other rom your device will explode.

Where is my close thread button?

isnt that for the i9000? rom manager shows us the i9000 roms because we use cwm for the i9000. stick to roms you see on the forum, we dont have a aosp kernel yet. it isnt imposible to run miui on a tw kernel, the fascinate had a rom like this but it wasnt fully functional.

re: MIUI Rom

None of the ROMS in Rom Manager Download option is for our phones except for the GTG465x entry where you will find the Infused 1.5.2 custom rom.

I have NO idea why all those other roms even show up in our phones......:o

(Samsung Infuse)

It is very strange.... When I had the Samsung Captivate and I check the download roms section in Rom Manager ALL the roms there were for the Samsung Captivate.. I wish who ever is in charge of Rom Manager or the DEVS would fix the error.

:cool:

[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
Hello,

I got a lil problem with choosing my next phone, and yeah lets start with some info.

So my contract ends at 22/10/2011, and I am in for a new phone.

I currently have an Iphone 3GS, and would like to upgrade to android.

I don't really want to go Iphone 4, reasons will be explained further in the post.

So my choices are SGSII,Nexus S,HTC Sensation.

What I like about the SGSII, its fastest, SAMOLED, much capacity,

dislike, the plastic not stury/tough feeling.

HTC sensation, yeah it got the sturdiness and toughness, and camera is a bit better but thats it, doesnt have real big cons, lil less ram than SGSII and doesn't have a big internal memory.

Nexus S, I dont know rofl. SAMOLED Screen

Contract durations for HTC&SGSII is 2 years.

" " for the Nexus is only 1 year.

Ill need to add a 38 euro on top of my contract for SGSII.

It's totally free, the HTC with same Contract.

Nexus needs only 24 euro, note 1 year only!

Well if i chose the Nexus I could let the dual core mature.

Not many things are optimized anyway for Dual core.

If I chose the SGSII, well yeah it got many + but sturdiness is something really important for me.

HTC, it got less memory but heck i could buy from the 34 euro memory, price difference.

Now we are at the Iphone part, yeah the problem is I need to add a whopping 190 euro for a iphone 4 with 2 year contract, and 16GB.

All contracts are the same, same provider and same contract only contract lengths vary.

Also, if I get the Nexus i am able to choose between black white and

silver

!

Yeah that would totally be awesome silver, and doesnt it have the rumoured 2.4?

oh yeah who need Google+ pm meh :P

[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
well Nexus S is also a choice as it only is 1 year :P

and its a great phone overall except it lacks a dual core..

and I would be able to get the n33t color Silver, :P

maybe it has android 2.4 :)??

Also the screen wont be silver i guess, thats something i dislike/...
[General Questions and Answers] arch3rm:
I've used all of them so here we go! :D

Does looking at a SAMOLED+ make your pants wet?

>If Yes, get the SGSII

>If No, Continue

Do you like Sense and use Sense Apps alot?

>If Yes, get the Sensation

>If No, Continue

Are you maticulous about keeping your screen "Scratch Free"?

>If Yes, get the SGSII

>If No, Continue

Do you want no extra features, a curved phone, a miss-matched UI Out-dated and the plasicy feel of Samsung without the GorillaGlass?

>If Yes, Get the Nexus S

>If No, Repeat and be more honest

Doesn't take into account contract length but...eh
[General Questions and Answers] k_nivesout:
Your contract isn't up til October? A lot can happen in the smartphone world in 3 months, something could come along or be announced that you want more.

That said, the nexus will always be first to get android OS updates, including ice cream sandwich (which will be coming later this year and will be 4.0).
[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
fixed

lol also it would be rooted so yeah the ui, who cares about that?

and curved phone isn't that totally awesome?

honestly i dunno maybe it is maybe it isnt.

Nexus S also has a SAMOLED, as its been made by samsung? and choice one is also a samsung so i dont/can't understand your negativenism about it if you start with a samsung phone in your list.

also i get to choose between, black/white/silver

SILVER :P

and when will the quads come?

well SGSII is my least favorite choice..

it's too light, and i dont really like it how thin it is.

what about if i sit on it?

my phone is ****ed then. becuase of its thinness.

Is it me or do you guys dislike the Nexus S?
[General Questions and Answers] wallytax:
I sense some doubt.... choose the nexus s. It won't disappoint you and after a year with Android you also know if you like the os.
[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
I'm very confused which to choose.

Nexus S is cheap as its only a 1 year contract with T-mobile NL,

the HTC+SGSII will both be 2 years,

but I am wavering cause in that one year there might be happening something big..
[General Questions and Answers] MartyLK:
According to what I've read, the Nexus S would be the best choice for music playing. It supposedly has a Wolfson DAC. And it has an actual gyrometer like the iPhone 4. The Nexus S is like a Farrari clothed in an Hyundai. It has some high-spec hardware. Think of it as Google's iPhone.

But if I were to choose between those 3, I would probably go with the Sensation. I love the style and feel of the Sensation and Sense 3 is excellent. I know that when I got my Inspire, I felt about it the same way I feel about the Sensation and found that I continually value my Inspire...it continually pleases me...in stock form, no less.

For best audio - Nexus S

For lasting appeal - Sensation

For high-end specs - SGS2
[General Questions and Answers] IISiDeK1CKII:
By far the SGSII is the best phone for the money out of your choices. But, you seem sold on the nexus s.. so get that.

if you are worried about it being to light or thin (whaa?) try this... http://www.otterbox.com/Samsung-Gal...olor=20&start=1&cgid=samsung-galaxy-s-2-cases

All in all, we really aren't going to do anymore convincing for you, since you already have your mind (pretty much) made up.
[General Questions and Answers] arilsongomes:
To me, it looks clear that you've already chosen The Nexus S, now I'm curious why it receives updates first?
[General Questions and Answers] IISiDeK1CKII:
because it is Google's platform phone i.e. - meant to show off Android's capabilities. It is completely untouched stock Android, so when Google pushes out updates, the Nexus line is the first to get it. It is also Google's development device, and developers need access to new updates to get their applications running smoothly on them.

All in all, the Nexus line aims to give the Android experience, as Google intended for it to be consumed.
[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
nope not at all, its just that you guys assume i set my eyes on Nexus S.

But thats only because you guys only said SGSII and that was my least favorite choice, and not much about the sensation which was my 2nd choice.

the samsung has some bad things i heard about and i absolutely dont want to have, i might get a revision that fixed it but i might not. The yellowing.

and abotu that otterbox i dont know if it will feel right.

It looks like i set my eyes on the nexus cuz it was a phone i always wanted till the dual cores came, so it got scrapped of my list. but now it is way cheaper than any other phone, so i reconsidered this phone again. The get is why i actually want it is cause I just want to see how much the multicore chips will develop in that time frame and maybe i would get a much better optimized phone when my nexus contract ends then.

[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
lol just gone to the shop,

they started **** about the SGS+ being super fast like an half time faster than his SGS ETC. that dual core is slow becuase it has dual core, i thought so wtf??

he explained like becuase the work load is spread over 2 cores the workload is 2 times as much, omg....

reverse psychology as nvidia explained their TEGRA? rofl rofl rofl..

and he said the Nexus S just plain sucked cuz its a google phone..
[General Questions and Answers] MartyLK:
Yeah, apparently Samsung is making very enticing offers to sales staff for every Samsung branded phone they sell. It happens, and even though the Nexus S is a Samsung phone, it's a Google branded phone and Samsung wouldn't make as much on its sales as they would on their main product.
[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
He said i would better not buy a dual core like the SGSII and said i could better take the SGS+ cuz its faster?

so he get something for selling samsung? but doesnt recommend the SGSII?
[General Questions and Answers] MartyLK:
Could be that way. Maybe Sammy wants to empty backstock of the older hardware.
[General Questions and Answers] runeazn:
hmm could be.

oh yeah its the providers number 1 hot product, seems like a lot people eat the **** he spouts..
[General Questions and Answers] :
The Nexus S is a nice phone, I love the sALMOED screen and the front looks extremely sexy. I also like the stock Android. That being said, the back looks like it was bought at a dollar store. It just looks incredibly cheap, even more so than the Galaxy S line. Kind of reminds me of their cheap messaging phones.

The GSII and Sensation are arguably the two best phones out right now.. Both are dual core.. There are some differences though..

Screen:

Sensation 4.3 Inch 960x540 qHD sLCD display

vs.

GSII 4.3 Inch 800x480 sALMOED Plus display

If you want a higher pixel count, go with Sensation, if you want vividness and outstanding colours, go with GSII.

Also, GSII has more internal memory, but this is countered by the Sensations memory card slot (Up to 32 GB). HTC has always liked having a SD card slot rather than build in memory.. Personal preference I guess..

Sense vs. Touchwiz? I prefer Sense, but Touchwiz has definitely made improvements..

Now on to the build.. Sensation has more of a premium feel (made of metal), GSII is made of plastic but is probably the best looking phone I have ever seen.

The Nexus S is nice though.. Overall none of the phones you mentioned are bad phones.. You have to do your research, go to a store and use one, etc. and find out for yourself which one you want.
[General Questions and Answers] theo80:
Just a correction: GSII also has memory card slot up to 32GB, in addition to its bigger internal memory.
[General Questions and Answers] arch3rm:
The screen is most certainly a Samsung screen.

Sorry if I was unclear :P

I love Samsung, but I find all their devices have a plasicy feel to them, but they make up for this with Gorilla Glass in my opinion.

I have never really like the Nexus S myself, so perhaps Jaded there.

You actively defended the Nexus, didnt mention the Sensation and stated that you didnt like the SGSII

Pretty easy discion there

:P
