[HTC ChaCha] da-vid:
Heh, I feel the exact same way. I love the keyboard, but the phone has far too many problems.

I installed less than 10 apps on internal memory before I ran out of space. Even after installing every app on the SD card, I have less than 20 MB of space left.

The Dialer issue and the fact that my phone loses 40% of battery overnight (even without the Dialer problem) is also extremely worrying.

The phone is otherwise riddled with other small bugs. Universal search doesn't really work properly; I can't search my contacts/messages/any HTC app unless I change "All" to the specific app. The HTC web browser doesn't seem to support bookmarks properly.

This phone would be almost perfect if it worked properly (and didn't have a Facebook button, but that's a minor annoyance only).

I'm going to make a trip to the HTC service center. They told me to do that after I emailed them with my problems. But I doubt these issues are specific to my device only, considering the responses in my other thread.

I flashed the new version of froyobread( v20) but when i wanted to install something it installs and installs...but doesn't.finish :/ i also did a full wipe but i didn't help :( any solution? Thx in advance ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] Ken-Shi_Kun:
Do you use apps2sd or something similar of that? (link2sd...) If so, then try to disable it, and install something. Also if you use oc, try to disable it (delete x8oc).
[XPERIA X8 General] mlop:
Ok thx i'll try it

[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
This is at the early stage of development. I wrote an app that pull the GPS coordinates from the phone and sets up a mock location provider to give the nook true GPS coordinates. For now, I hard coded the server's (phone) IP address into the app. I will change this in the near future.

Setup:

Wireless Tether app installed on phone

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta2.apk

gpstether installed on phone

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gpstether&feature=search_result

My app installed on nook

Getting it to work:

Start Wireless Tether using the default LAN address (192.168.2.0/24). I hard coded the address for right now. Use the gateway IP address as the GPSTether's address.

Connect nook to Internet via wireless or bluetooth tether

Uncheck "Use wireless network" under "Location & Security settings" on the Nook 9Note: this is not require. You only need to do this to be sure that your are getting coordinates from the GPS and not the wireless network.)

Check "Allow mock locations" under "Development" on the Nook

Start gpstether on phone. Press the home button once it is started. You do not need it displayed on the screen for it to work.

Start my app on the nook. Press the home button once it is started. You do not need it displayed on the screen for it to work.

Then you should be good to go. Test with google maps.

[strke]You have to "Force Stop" my app and gpstether to close them. I will fix this in the future too.[/strke] Fixed

Changelog:

8/12/11

Install the Droid2DroidGPSTether app on the phone. Start wireless tether then gpstether. Of course, the gps must be on.

Install the gps app on the nook. Connect to the wireless tether network then start this app. You can configure the wireless settings and gps settings within the gps app.

Use the GPSTether app that is attached. It will not stop without having to force close.

Client will automatically use the gateway ip as the gps tether server.

7/20/11

Server is no longer hardcoded. If you are tethered, then use the Gateway of the nook, otherwise use the IP address of the phone.

Added start and stop button

Added some exception handling to prevent FCs

Reusing connect; not closing and recreating new connect every time

Faked Accuracy so Navigation thinks it is connect to real GPS

TODO

Status Messages is not complete (On that note, does anyone know how to update a TextView from a thread to the parent?)
[Nook Color Android Development] TheAmazingDave:
I'm confused; what advantage does this have over using TetherGPS client on the Nook? I've been using GPS on the Nook since I got it by using TetherGPS server on my Optimus and the client on the Nook, haven't had any trouble.
[Nook Color Android Development] EGOvoruhk:
TetherGPS isn't free
[Nook Color Android Development] douginoz:
I'll try this shortly on my Honeycomb. Hard coding IP address may be an issue on my phone.

Great start!
[Nook Color Android Development] TheAmazingDave:
His first post before edit mentioned TetherGPS was needed, thus my question. ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
TetherGPS is different then GPStether. I was confused at first too. I went looking for some tethering software and I found GPStether first. By the time I found TetherGPS I was too far along to stop. Doesn't hurt to have two products out there.
[Nook Color Android Development] douginoz:
can't run on my Honeycomb'd NC. Get "No Netfilter Sorry, but your kernel does not have all necessary features for running this application."

Also, does installing GPSTether on my mobile phone do exactly the same thing as installing TetherGPS (which costs $)?

Looking again at the first post, I'm not sure about having to disable wifi and location settings on my Nook just to get this working. It's ok to do it for an early alpha release, but not once the app becomes mature, since it's a lot of extra steps to have to do manually. Hopefully these things get done by the app and re-enabled when you exit or something.
[Nook Color Android Development] Awats:
I just use a GPS over BT!
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
The GPSTether and Wireless Tether should run on the phone. The only thing that runs on the nook is the gps.apk that is at the bottom of the post. It does not use Netfilter. You do not have to disable "Use wireless networks". I just did this to make should you were getting the coordinates from the phone.
[Nook Color Android Development] ganovim:
which gps and what app on the nook?
[Nook Color Android Development] JeremyNT:
Works well for me so far, thanks for this great little utility!
[Nook Color Android Development] louismulder:
Brian, is it possible to make the code for the available for the Archos 101 and HP Touchpad?

The file gps.apk gives a parser error !

I have also tried to download droid 2 droid gps client from the market, but no luck.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
Does Galaxy Ace shows a notification when battery is fully charged ? Yesterday I got a new Ace, I kept it for charging for around 3-4hrs.. The battery indicator shows the battery full, but notification on the homescreen(when its locked) showed its charging..

How am I suppose to understand its fully charged..?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] downloadonlyaccount:
Yes, normally a notification should appear when the battery is fully charged!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
How much hours does it take to fully charge if the battery is around 5%?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mastrone:
The battery isn't fully charged until you don't get a notification (both sound and green icon on the top-left corner). That's even if you see the indicator showing 100% ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
Wow..my battery is still blue.. in the right hand corner.. How long does it takes to fully charge?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] downloadonlyaccount:
Depending on ROM / mods, your battery icon may look different. But a notification should show up after around 3 hours.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] rhadrio:
Well that depends, wether you're charging via USB or the wall-charger (I don't really know the name of that thing xD )

USB charging requires more time, I've tried and it took me about 4-5 hours to full charge the phone.

Tapatalked from my Noirette III
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
Ok..Last nite... I charged for 3-4 hrs.. but didnt get any notification..maybe I will try it today..Is it ok to leave it on charge over-nite? Maybe 6-7 hrs after a full deplete..?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] rhadrio:
Have you tried to reflash your ROM? There's maybe something wrong within the kernel.

And about charging overnight... I doubt that's a safe thing to do..

Used to charge my old phone overnight everytime and now it's battery depleted within 4 hours after a full charge.

Tapatalked from my Noirette III
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] indeezindii:
well, certainly not on froyo. probably only ginger has it in-built-i get it on galaxy s (ginger) but not on Ace (froyo).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] casiocas:
Hey!

You can charge it over night. And it shows notification in home screen CHARGED!

CHEERS! :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
@rhadrio I havent re flashed it..just got it yesterday. :P

I guess the battery nowadays have no -ve effect, if we over charge them.. ? Any one can confirm this?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] casiocas:
Of course its NOT good, if you OVER CHARGE it every time. And for correcting battery stats, you need to calibrate it(you must be ROOTED, before use BATTERY CALIBRATOR[free from MARKET]). But still I suggest to use it(BATTERY CALIBRATOR) only if you get too fastley drain you battery(I mean, if you see that you battery getting worst or similar).

CHEERS! :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
I haven't rooted it yet. I will charge it overnite today & lets see if its works better tomorrow..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Batteries now have built-in overcharging prevention. No worries.

XDA ♥
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MPAI:
Well.. I kept it over nite.. In the morning I saw a notification on the phone as "Charged", but I am not sure how many hours did it take to charge it. :p
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nilayiscool:
I dont know about battery issue aftr overnight charging.....but i used to charge my 5800 overnight daily, i used 2 and hlf years but nothing happend to batry or batry back up...

and if u charge yor ACE with AC charger it will take min 4 hours as our chargers are 0.7A

and if u charge with USB ur cell will get completly charged in half time compared to AC charger :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] indeezindii:
...nope! usb is 500 mA (0.5 A) max - in best case, depending on mode etc. so AC charger is faster as it's 0.7 A. max 3-4 hrs here on ac.
[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
Anyone have any idea where can buy an HTC Sensation 4G for $250? Not rioted, not unlocked, just stock and refurbished (as if I could get an unsubsidized one for so low) ? I'm getting into porting random ROMs to the myTouch 4G, but I need a secondary Android phone for when the MT4G blows up on me.
[HTC Sensation] c19932:
you will never find it for $250. Even a used mint one on craigslist is a bit below $400. Unless you can find a really stupid seller :)
[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
Trust me, there's a lot of stupid sellers out there.
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
How far from your upgrade date are you? I just upgraded for $199+tax, no upgrade fee, no rebate necessary and free shipping. My full upgrade wasn't for another 6 months. The price that I was offered on t-mobile.com was $329-$50 rebate + tax and upgrade fee. Total upfront cost would have been about $375. I called retentions and they hooked me up. Total upfront cost ended up being $235. I'm still going to send off for the rebate and I'll probably get it too.
[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
Actually, I bought my phone off contract.
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
If you're looking to get it off contact, to get one for the price you're looking to pay you'll probably have to wait for a while for resale prices to come down or accept one with some damage.
[HTC Sensation] orangekid:
The only thing I can think of is get one for $350, then flip it for $450, then get another for $350 and there you go.
[HTC Sensation] c19932:
Lol that means you would have to find two sellers that would sell their sensations for 350 AND then sell your sensation for 450. Thatspretty hard

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
First of all, let me just say that the Dinc 1 is the best phone I have ever used. I loved everything about it. Well, to make a long story short, it fell off my lap and the screen shattered :( Filed a claim online through Asurion, and the inc 1 was out of stock, so they are overnighting me an incredible 2.

Did I do well in this situation???

I am kinda bummed because I have 2 extended batteries for the inc 1, and some sweet cases. None of this stuff will work with the inc 2...

And as far as root/roms go, the inc 1 is a marvelous device to hack, but hows the inc 2 coming along???

I would like to hear your opinions on this one guys. Will I love my new and improved incredible, or will I miss the original...

What do you think???
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] forgotenxlegacyx:
Well i just picked up a Dinc2 a few days ago, Had it rooted in about an hour and had CM7 on it by the end of the day!

Best Android device ive ever had! you will love it 10x more then your dinc1!

But it is a bummer about the cases/battery's =[
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
I guess Ebay is my friend in this situation :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
If it comes with 2.3.3 then the device can't be rooted. If it comes with Froyo it can.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dbisch:
I had the DInc and you will not be disappointed with the DInc2. The only problem is that if the device you get has 2.3.3 on it, you cannot root (yet). I'm sure the devs will figure out a way but for now you can only root if you're running Froyo. If it makes you feel any better, I bought mine on Friday and it came with Froyo. Rooted and running MIUI now!!! It's amazing.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Nachobass25:
Not quite true. You can root it with an XTC Clip, it just may cost you about 40 or 50 bucks on ebay, so yes, ebay is your friend in this situation :P

Personally, the clip is well worth the extra cash if you need it. The MIUI official ROM on this device is awesome, and we're only getting more and better ROMS, especially as more devs and hackers switch from the Inc1 to the Inc2 just like you did.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Well yeah
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
If my new Dinc 2 from Asurion comes with GB will I still be able to root it? Even if I have to buy an XTC Clip?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
search.

GB=need XTC clip.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Black Droid:
Or I could sell it new in the box on ebay, and buy a used inc 2 with froyo :D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chassen1236:
Hello! I need help on my G2 that doesnt want to flash any roms at all. When i go into Rom Manager and download a rom and go install it, it finish and it boots up but it just stays on the first HTC logo. I leave it there for more then ten minutes relizing the in messed up. So i have to go back into recovery(manualy) and wipe all data and cache and then i flash the Virtuous Rom(because i downloaded it to the sdcard) and it boots up. Also when i try to flash the mods to the rom and it also fail and i have to do the same procedure again and again everytime i try to flash a rom or backup. What should i do? Oh i also have S-OFF if that helps.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
have you tried manually downloading and flashing another ROM through recovery?

Also, are you doing full wipes when trying to flash the new ROMs?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chassen1236:
No i havent tried from a diferrent recovery but i will. Also i have benn doing full wipes and cache wipes.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Not a different recovery..the same way you flashed that rom is the same way you can flash others..if you downloaded rom through rom manager you can find it in that folder which is on your sd card called clockworkmod
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chassen1236:
I downloaded it from a youtube video and manually flashed them. But the problem is i already looked for a rom and i kinda dont want to trust people who post roms because my mytouch 3g got bricked becuase of the that. And i cant any roms i looked everywhere even on my best friend(google).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chassen1236:
Sorry not even paying attention but thanks i will try that.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Not a different recovery. Just make sure that your CWM recovery is the latest version. Download a ROM of your choice from the Dev section via your computer, transfer to your SDcard, and flash manually from your phone (not using ROM manager). Do a cache/dalvik cache/full data wipe. Then flash the ROM and reboot.

ROM manager can often have issues with bad downloads that lead to bad flashes. Flashing manually can be a way to troubleshoot and take a potential bad step out of the equation.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
You can download roms from dev section from your device as well.

As far as the op..what do you mean you downloaded from a youtube video and you don't trust people who past roms? If you don't trust people don't mess with it. The devs here aren't going to brick you phone..that's a mistake on your end or you not paying attention to what you were flashing
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
I was trying to get him to download via his computer to see if the downloading via his phone was causing bad flashes.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xArcane1x:
Correct me if I'm wrong but if i remember correctly it is extremely difficult to brick ones phone. The worst possible thing that could happen is if your phone some how died during a flash half way through. You can easily boot into bootloader, enter recovery and attempt to do it again.

With CWM you can mount the sd card in the mounts and storage settings so if you forgot or somehow deleted the Rom Zip from your card you can easily and safely access your card using CWM :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sterz85:
i'm having the same issue

i have the phone rooted, s-off, and hboot installed

i'll boot into rom manager, wipe the data/cache, install the rom i want, reboot device... i get the white htc screen for about 5 seconds and then the phone restarts.

when it restarts, i get the white htc screen and then it boots into rom manager

what could be causing this? i had my previous g2 rooted and never had these issues when i was flashing roms

beta bolt browser
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] wujekandrzej:
wtf? u just upload a file, name a thread, and there's no even few words of description. why should anyone download it? cmon...
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Rolandh:
Bolt Browser is a light weight web browser, its been out for ages on Blackberry and a few other devices that can use java apps, it's a bit similar to Dolphin HD. When I was using it on my Blackberry Curve before I switched to Android it would crash all the time, but I used to persevere with it because it was the only way to get the full Facebook and Twitter sites on Blackberry.

It might be worth downloading. I'll download it and test it and report back if it is worth downloading or not.

Roland
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Rolandh:
It's a little laggy for me, but that could be due to it being in Beta atm. well worth a download though.
