[Vibrant General] kboater:
1. they did tell me it was a new policy. as i was able to do it in the past. now twice they said they have had policy changes. so yes, its a new change and they said part of it is because they do not have any more "no contract" plans. The only options they gave me over and over again was to sign a new contract

2. well its not buyers remorse when you have had a phone for 1 year. i understand what you are saying though. but what i am saying is that tmobile used to look and see how loyal of a customer you have been and make exceptions

3. they told me this $20 warrenty exchange fee is new

4. i know you said this has been policy for AGES, but they have done it for me twice in the past, so either they went around the policy for me, and never told me....or

5. again, case-by-case basis. its basic business. I know a little about business too. (undergrad in business, masters in business, worked in customer service management, now back in school again) not that any of those degrees matter, but im saying knowing about customer service and business; you look at your really good customers and you do what you can to retain them as customers.

maybe these "changes" have nothing to do with att, but my point is that tmobile (as we knew it) has changed. Hell, even the retentions rep yesterday told me they have gone many big changes and policy changes in the past few months.

All im saying is that tmobile used to look at their loyal customers and do what was necessary to keep them. Im saying that they are not doing (at least nearly as much) anymore and this makes them much more like any other cell phone company.

hey guys ...

I GUESS NO ONE IS INTERESTED IN HELPING ME OUT ,

I ASKED THIS BEFORE,MANY TIMES,MANY THREADS, BUT NO RESPONSE SO FAR....

THE ISSUE IS ----------->>>

i am really stuck wid this problem , i am using the BOYPPC-GINGERBREAD-GOEX-V2 version currently

and i cant turn off the hardware button backlight completely off , neither by cyanogen mod settings nor by using any app .

earlier i used to use this app called ( ** adjbrightness**) to turn off the button backlight but it is not working in this rom.

IS THERE ANY SOLUTION OR ANY OTHER TWEAK /TRICK TO COMPLETELY TURN OF THE BUTTON BACKLIGHT IN THIS BUILD ???

GUYS PLEEEEEEEZ HELP ME WITH THIS.....I REALLY WANNA TURN THEM OFF !!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dr.Move:
why don't you post in that build's thread. I'm sure users who had that problem would tell you how they solved it. and if it can't be solved, the Dev might fix it in the next release :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] techops:
Hi, just go to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Display > Automatic backlight and check Use Custom. Then go to Edit other levels and add 0 to Buttons.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] adi_tya89:
thanks but even this did nt help ....

i have the exact same cyanogen mod settings but even after putting the values '0' '0' '0' '0' and then saving nd applying it,

the button backlight did nt turn off.

any other method ???

or any clue what could be the problem ??:confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
Why is it so important for you to turn them off?

Please keep in mind, that our beloved hd2 originally doesn't run android and so the hardware also doesn't play nice with all software.

I think the button backlight is controlled by the liblights.so. As far as I know there are three different versions of them, one with working notifications and limited auto backlight, one with fully working auto backlight and NOT working notifications and one with working auto backlight and limited working notifications.

...already used them all, but can't remember, that controlling the button backlight was working in one version.

So guess it's a kernel related issue.

So you could try builds with different kernels: tytungs kernel is the most spreaded one, and I mean here it's not working, so try gpcs, rafingas, mdjs, bauner(?)...maybe youve got luck.

Maybe you can also contact tytung and ask if its a kernel issue.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Appogee:
So my G2 is vibrating non-stop. This was a non-issue before because if I smacked on my palm lightly (now I actually do mean very lightly) it would stop. However now it just won't stop. I tried taking out the battery and even when I take it out as soon as I stick the battery in, it keeps vibrating. I also tried just using the usb cord, and it seems that if it is connected to a power source. The phone just doesn't stop vibrating. Help please?
[G2 and Desire Z General] burtcom:
The vibrator is probably shorted. Send it in if it's under warranty.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Techngro:
If I remember correctly, Cyanogen has a setting to turn off feedback altogether. If you're running it, try that. If you're not running Cyan, you better get on that. I hope you can still boot to recovery and do a wipe/install.
[G2 and Desire Z General] deliriousDroid:
Most likely the case. But try a factory reset first, I had that problem with a LG Eve, and it fixed it.

Sent from my SilverBullet 'HTCDesireZ running CM7'
[G2 and Desire Z General] Appogee:
Did the factory reset and no avail. In fact it screwed me over even more because now I don't even have any of my apps and I basically have no access to Wi-Fi (I'm typing this with my cousins comp) as I'm in Hong Kong. Is there any other way to fix it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] deliriousDroid:
Does your phone have warranty still?

Sent from my SilverBullet 'HTCDesireZ running CM7'
[G2 and Desire Z General] Appogee:
Probably not? I thought rooting cancels the warranty. And if so, then no, I don't have warranty anymore. Would a repair shop be able to fix it or is this a manufacturer thing?

BTW: Just if it helps.

My G2 is perm-rooted with S-OFF

It's not unlocked, but it is running the newest stable CM7 (7.0.3). I re-installed 7.0.3 after the factory reset didn't work. Yes I did wipe cache and format.
[G2 and Desire Z General] deliriousDroid:
What was your rooting method? You should be able to unroot

Sent from my SilverBullet 'HTCDesireZ running CM7'
[G2 and Desire Z General] Appogee:
I used Visionary v14 i believe.

If I unroot, do you think that it may stop the vibrate. Or will the unroot just allow me to send it into HTC for a possible fix?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Appogee:
Well I turned to the help of local vendors and the guidence of my family here. It was about $25 USD to fix it here in HK it actually did get fixed. Hopefully nothing got tampered with but my phone is fixed so that's sweet. Thanks for the help guys!

[HTC Inspire 4G] nicksti:
I downloaded Bubby's One Click program (3-21-11_RC2.exe) and here is exactly what happened:

1. I know this may be my undoing but I did not turn off antivirus, it found a virus and cleaned it. Knowing my luck it cleaned something out that was critical in the steps.

2. I got the goldcard done (website was down the other day). I got it downgraded and now I have a working debranded Froyo Inspire 4g on 1.32.405.6. But with no sound.

Now something went wrong during a command prompt part and the program did not progress. I tried rerunning the program but it does not progress as it should.

What do I do now? I am going to try follow Cyanogen steps on their Wiki but is their an easier fix?
[HTC Inspire 4G] cavsoldier19d:
You need to completely disable or even uninstall your anti virus. Then, delete all of the one click root files. Then redownload, and start over.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
You could push rage to your phone to root it you can still root it with the downgraded rom. You don't have to start from the beginning. Just the part that pushes rage after you turn you anti virus off and redownload the gui.

The downgraded rom does not have the right audio drivers which is why you have no sound.

Also next time please search as there are many many many threads about this.

Mods please close.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nicksti:
I did a search and did not find the procedure. I also searched on the internet. The problem is I do not know how to fix it and rerunning the file does not work. when you do a search for no sound Inspire 5 threads come up and I did not know what to do still.

I will do a search for how to push rage to the phone. Remember the 500mb program does not exactly let you pick and choose the point where to start.

Edit: I will try this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952352
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
use the hack kit. you can even use the older hack kit. It doesn't really matter the size of the program, its how the program is scripted.

There are many threads of downgraded inspire with no sound, the solution is flashing a rom, though you cannot do that because you are not rooted nor are you s-off.

your options.

1. Flash back to stock and restart the whole process.

2. Push rage from adb, then run rage through turminal emulator.

3. Use the hack kit, because you can choose where to start in the proccess, ie. Pushing rage and rooting.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
Try using the hack kit. Start with menu option number3.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nicksti:
I got it done.

I used this tutorial which involved:

Downloading Android SDK and gfree

Changing system variable path in Windows

running command prompt

doing a whole heap of adb commands.

I installed Rom Manager and flashed unity rom in and I am good to go

This is still going on??? I got one of the first Inspires when Costco was selling them even before AT&T would.

Had to use attn1's method from there on.

[Epic 4G General] PythonFanTN:
What do you mean by 'Still 2.3.4 though'? What else would it be?

He could be referring to it not being 2.3.5, which is what the nexus s 4g is getting on July 25th.
[Epic 4G General] Mutiny32:
2.3.5, which will be rolling out to the Nexus S 4G on the 25th to fix speakerphone issues, TTY support, and improve WiMax speeds.
[Epic 4G General] PythonFanTN:
Ah, what changes are in that that are desirable? I guess I missed that somehow, most news seems to be about Honeycomb revisions for tablets or ICS.
[Epic 4G General] PythonFanTN:
Nevermind, Mutiny beat you to it qb :) (thanks btw)
[Epic 4G General] ThrIsNoSpork:
I don't think we will see 2.3.5 when gingerbread drops. It doesn't seem to benefit the epic anyway so I say meh...

last I heard that newer version was only for NFC...near field communications, but yeah, let them patch it. This will be a great ROM, I know it.
[Epic 4G General] gophergun:
I think the WiMax speed fixes aren't inherent to Android 2.3.5, just a coincidental modem update. At least, I don't see why they would need to change the Android source code for that. I could be wrong, but I wouldn't count out seeing those fixes in our update as well.

[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
You'd be fortunate to get one of the previous 2 builds leaked at this point. The fact that there are weekly builds like this makes me ever more curious. The GB ardor is cooled some by the arrival of Netflix for Froyo, but I just want to know how many bugs are squashed and how much faster the phone will be.
[Epic 4G General] SubnetMask:
From what I've read, the rdfs aren't always entirely accurate, so its not impossible for the build to get updated to 2.3.5.
[Epic 4G General] steviee7:
I don't think the epic will get 2.3.5 that fast.. And the updater for the nexus will come because the phones speaker is very low and it had worse signal strength than other sprint phones.. Also getting a nfc update for google wallet, and other things
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
The original nexus won't even be getting 2.3.5. It's a nexus so 4G update only. 2.3.4 is the latest update available for any android device.
[Epic 4G General] bdbc:

I always check the date on the rumor thread first. If the date's not updated, I assume there's no news. It still says 7/15, so I kept looking and found this. So this did a better job for me of keeping me informed.
[Epic 4G General] bdbc:
Yes, and it still says 7/15. Way to be unorganized and complain about other people's alleged unorganization. Lol and this isn't directed at you by the way, Turbofool.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Agreed, the RDFs are not rumors. We don't need a new thread for each one, but one thread for RDFs would be nice(as long as the OP was updated in timely manner).
[Epic 4G General] bdbc:
Now you're just debating semantics.

But I guess when people have nothing news-wise to entertain their minds, they tend to find things to create mind-stimulation instead. Happen to notice how the lack of anything new (eg. No GB) has caused many posters in the Epic forum to concentrate more on irrelevant intricacies of the forum? It's a classic childlike response. The bored child is more apt to cause turmoil than the active child. And there's a lot of children in the Epic forum as of late.

For clarity, I'm not directing all of this at you Whosdaman, just the initial sentence.
[Epic 4G General] bdbc:
Good point. RDFs are definitely not rumors, so throwing them all into the rumor thread is a stretch in itself. It's like there's this continual attempt to create a 'forum in a thread'. An apparently improperly named, albeit not even stickied, one.
[Epic 4G General] .OmEgA:
yea i said before in one of these topics, this is a fact. A fact that EG22 is real, do we have it no but it is a fact thats its real. The only rumor about this is when everyone comes in and starts saying things like release dates or some other BS which is not real, therefore rumors unlike the FACT that there is a EG22 build. Common sense people. ;)
[Epic 4G General] Mutiny32:
All of you *****ing about this not being in the other thread can just shut your traps. I was trying to break up the stagnation that has hit this forum.

[Epic 4G General] squshy 7:
Umm...all of this is off topic and irrelevant? Or maybe it's just me.
[Epic 4G General] Mutiny32:
I did notice that in the newer builds that they have update CORE AV to 2.3, so multimedia performance should be much better. But I was under the assumption that the Nexus S /4G did 24/32-bit color, not 16-bit like the Epic does. Can anyone confirm that?
[Epic 4G General] slightly.stoopid:
I think if we quit arguing with each other over frivolous things in these forums it will be easier to find stuff and not have to comb through to find what we are looking for
[Epic 4G General] bdbc:
Yes. Yet another decent thread derailed by mini-mods trying to turn the Epic forum into a bureaucratic hierarchy of ultra-organized thread structures. They'd have 5 threads total per sub-forum if they had their way. But hey, it'd be nice and neat.
[Epic 4G General] Mutiny32:
I wonder if they can build GB for the Epic with 24/32 bit color instead of 16-bit like the RDF says.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Lol i was just seeing who would respond to me
[Epic 4G General] bdbc:
Touche
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Will someone please simply explain *why* these need their own threads? I dont have anything against them, per say, I just want to be able to see it all in one place, keep the forums organized, ya know. Yeah, there is more to life, doesn't mean this isn't part of it. Any my rumor thread is simply for upcoming releases that haven't been officialy announced. I'll update the title to "Info shop".

I've been curious about that too, it may possibly be able to for our phone. Is it within hardware or within Kernel for the Nexus S?
