I'm not certain, but I think a couple people mentioned that backups/restores weren't working properly either?
[Atrix 4G General] munchy_cool:
Thanks guys. updated OP.
[Atrix 4G General] Gandalf:
I am able to make backups, and see the files on my INTERNAL SD Card (since there is no external sdcard support yet) but i have not tried a Restore using the backup files that the backup process created.

I ran a normal backup, which should have included everything

im a little hesitant to run restore in worries that it will fatally screw something up :eek:
[Atrix 4G General] thebeardedchild:
Yeah, I heard it would complete a backup but you wouldn't find out it went wrong until you tried to restore ;)

I think everyone is afraid to try it out...The dev can do a little more testing I suppose before he releases something :)
[Atrix 4G General] munchy_cool:
only if he has the phone which I guess koush does not have , as in he does not own the Atrix ..
[Atrix 4G General] thebeardedchild:
Hmmm good point.. Seems like someone is gonna have to take one for the team and try a backup to see if it works lol. I'm gonna take a peak through the other recent Rom Manager threads and see if anyone mentioned anything with more details about a backup.
[Atrix 4G General] quicklyspent:
External SD access is really a bug. Its looking for sd-ext instead of sdcard-ext.

Backups complete. Restores fail b/c one of the first steps is to format /system...which fails.
[Atrix 4G General] Gvndeb60:
Wipe doesn't work, back up completes, but will not restore, gives error after first step.
[Atrix 4G General] robertlawson225:
i was able to flash a restore. but after it was very bugggggy
[Atrix 4G General] munchy_cool:
AS in wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data or factory reset or all of them?

I updated to 3.1 and tried playing few movies...but no sound at all

i tried with nemo and mobo...but with music files there is sound..

how to fix this?
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
I'm running taboonay and occasionlly lose sound with videos, but other app sounds still work. Usually a reboot clears it up for me. Don't know if thats the same issue.
[Acer Iconia A500] sparky999:
I noticed the same thing right after I updated. No sound with movies, no matter what player or what format.

I tried playing some music to see if that was affected also. When I launched PowerAmp (great app, btw), my music also has no sound...but for just a couple of seconds. The sound came back for my music (after fiddling with the volume controls) and then after I checked, it was back for my movies.

Try that out. Maybe it will work for you.
[Acer Iconia A500] elot01:
If it didn't work on 3.0 then check if the sound is maybe AC3.

There are problems with that.

I found that Vplayer is able to play it with sound, so you may try that also.

In my case it plays 720P movies with AC3 sound without any problem.

So i bought it, after trying the trial version :D
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
I'm also using vplayer. I tried Rock player (loved it on my phone and hated it on my tablet) and MoboPlayer (hated the confusing playlist that added all the movies even those I didn't want to add).

So far no problems with 720p or anything else even when streaming (unless I have low signal).
[Acer Iconia A500] mohanindia:
Now it works..i installed the Roboplayer and its codec...did a reboot and then it started playing...thinking how could acer ship it leaving the user to fix it
[Acer Iconia A500] backudog:
you guys are lucky! i can't get mine to play ANY vids i put on it, no matter what file type they are, worked fine before the update but nowt since. :(
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
Then save your data and do a hard reset. It will get you up and running.
[Acer Iconia A500] backudog:
do you mean the factory reset? if so i tried that and it still doesn't play anything? :(
[Acer Iconia A500] madzozs:
I'm assuming it was mere coincidence for me, but after I got the update, I tried to play a movie off of my thumb drive. Movie played without using ntfs mount, but I had no sound. I had sound when I clicked on the screen, and when I typed. Ended up unrooting, then rooting with the new IconiaRoot1.3 and after a reboot, sound and video playback worked no problem. Also used the netflix patch and it worked perfectly too.
[Acer Iconia A500] THE CRIME:
i still have the same issue after i tried the solutions that allrady posted so please help..

i'm new in this form (^_^)....
[Acer Iconia A500] wirles:
Solved my no sound issue.

After playing around with several players, I discovered an option in MXplayer and Rockplayer that gives you the option to select Hardware decoding or Software Decoding. Using Hardware decoding, I didn't get any sound. When I switched to Software decoding, all my movie sounds started working. In the MXplayer, I did have to go in and "clear records" under preferences for the sound to start working.

I hope this helps others too.

[Acer Iconia A500] fxandrei:
yeah ... u get sound this way ... but the movie is very choppy ..

when u select hardware decoding the movie is smoooooth but no sound
[Acer Iconia A500] lilirose:
I had this exact problem last night after updating and figured out what was causing it. The update made MoboPlayer default back to hardware decoding. I changed the setting back to software decoding and presto, I have sound again. Hope the same is true for you.

Sorry, just noticed that wirles said the same thing. I am noticing no issues with choppiness, but the videos I play are usually not HD.
[Acer Iconia A500] fxandrei:
yeah .. i know .. but the video is choppy again.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sutt359:
Branded roms have the network/operator logos, settings and its been customized by them. Plus any updates will come from them.

Debranded is an untouched generic usually eurowwe or Asia wwe rom that's not been customized and is how it should come from HTC. So updates will come direct and a lot quicker.

Just ordered an HD7S and i know that it comes pre-installed with the latest Nodo Rom. I just want to know if it is possible to downgrade this phone to a pre Nodo firmware so that i can use Chevron to sideload apps like an HD7 or is there an Developer unlocked rom that can work with the hd7s and if so what firmware is it at?

[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
Just curious as to what your opinions were on this one. I want a case that'll keep the crease around the screen clean like new. I'm planning on getting a car dock in the future also, so a case that would allow it to fit into the dock would be great too. Probably going with the iGrip Car Dock.

I think it was a really strange decision to even have 2 tiny creases all the way around the screen in the first place. My Hero NEVER got dust/dirt in the crease around the screen OR the crease between the screen and the button plate.

otterbox defender
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
+1!

My defender is great. Everytime I remove the case the phone looks brand new.
[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
I just saw a review of the OtterBox Defender and I think I like it. How do you like the holster that comes with it? Does this case definitely fit into the iGrip car dock? Does the self adhesive screen cover ever have those annoying air bubbles under it?
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
I can't comment on the igrip, but the screen cover is part of the case and is not an adhesive. It's a hard plastic that is stuck to the case and goes right over your phone. Some dust can get in there but its minimal.
[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
Ok. Was reading descriptions from other sites selling it. That's where I was confused. ^^
[HTC EVO 3D] OutdoorOBW:
The Otterbox defender doesn't work with the iGrip dock. Really anything bigger than a TPU case will not fit.
[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
Even with the insert taken out of the iGrip? That's disappointing. Was really hoping for that combination to work.
[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
They need to make Phone Floss for these creases or something. lol

Windows PC Geek tips:

1. Internet Explorer is only good for downloading Chrome (preferred) or Firefox.

2. Firefox is only good if you have a few dozen scripts running around. And 4GB RAM, for the matter.

3. WIN+D = Desktop

4. WIN+E = Explorer

5. CTRL+SHIFT+ESC = task manager

6. CTRL+ALT+DEL = Bill Gates' favourite button combo

7. WIN+R = Run

8. msconfig = great place to see what's taking up boot time

Excel warrior tips:

1. Pry out your F1 key.

2. CTRL+Space = Highlight entire column

3. SHIFT+Space = Highlight entire row

4. CTRL+PgUp/PgDn = move to previous/next worksheet

Word warrior tips:

SHIFT+F3 = change capitalization

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
Once you are on the leaked or official version of GB from Verizon, you cannot go back to Froyo. The only potential way would be when root is obtained, and who knows when that might be.

Hey guys,

How come when I pair up my Microsoft Notebook 5000 Bluetooth mouse, CM7 just literally FREEZES. It pairs fine, says it's paired, then BAM, frozen.

Anyone else have this issue and know how to fix?

Thanks!

EDIT: Okay, got CM7 to stop freezing, but now it just pairs, connects and then unconnects. WiiMote was painless, but a Mouse is a PITA. Anyone have tips?

EDIT 2: After a dozen attempts, it decided to pair.

EDIT 3: When turning on my mouse, it instantly pairs, and freezes CM7 to a lock. Does no one else have this problem? Hello? Anyone out there?
[Nook Color General] Zero VGS:
I have this same thing happen with two different brands of mouse, Logitech Mx1000 and a generic Inland BT mouse. I don't know the fix but I'm seeing the same shenanigans as you. It'll freeze every version of CM7 and Phiremod I've tried, and if I restart the Nook and turn the mouse back on, the system will lock up again as soon as the "connection arrows" appear on the sides of the Bluetooth icon in the status bar.
[Nook Color General] onevision83:

Same boat here - I have a Lenovo BT N6901 mouse which I use together with HP BT Keyboard KT-1087. I had to force shut down 3 or 4 times today.

Are you kidding me? It's not the companies fault that they released an update that broke things? What delusional fantasy world do you live in?

HTC made an update with some serious bugs, and SPRINT okay'd and pushed out the buggy update. To make matters worse, the update prevents you from downgrading.

Also, plenty of people have had to get their phones repaired / replaced, and sprint put 2.3 on them. Your whole do research argument is invalid as well.

You should have been smart and gone on the forums and read about the OTA update. Many people have warned against doing the upgrade.

Also, be patient. Ive seen this on other threads, and its good advice. The people working on the root have lifes, they have other hobbies and man opther things that are more important than rooting a phone.

Im super excited for root, but you just have to be patient.
[EVO 4G General] Samwards:
Did your monocle come with your EVO, or did you buy that separate? First, I was given an updated EVO from Sprint after mine was returned for hardware issues. Even then, how can you possibly blame any consumer for assuming a major feature of the phone would cease to function? Do you scour the internet looking for the technical details for every patch MS releases? No, you *might* read a brief synopsis of what the update entails and assume that your PC won't **** itself afterwards. How is my phone any different? Why should I assume/fear something as seemingly as basic and benign as a bluetooth profile would just stop working? After the fact, should I need to invalidate my warranty or even go through the damn trouble of rooting the phone to ensure that features previously available will remain available? That was rhetorical btw, I or any other customer shouldn't need to assume something of that nature. Its a big **** up by HTC and Sprint.
