Don't get me wrong. My volume's fine. What I want to know is how I can hack it to make it louder. My gtab, which costs significantly less than the transformer and the iconia, is the loudest. And it's not just a little louder. It's a lot louder. When I skype with both my friends with the gtab, I can just put it on the kitchen table and walk around in the kitchen and still be able to talk and hear comfortably. I can't do that with either the transformer or the iconia.
[Acer Iconia A500] cd85233:
I don't know if I described it correctly so I'm going to go to staples and play with one of theirs. The could just be crappy speakers that I'm not used to. I can still return it if that's the case hope they have some stock.
[Acer Iconia A500] wga22:
I would appreciate some software ways that make louder also since some movies are faint. Even with headphones on

[HTC EVO 3D] tomh1979:
Well true enough, looks like HTC failed on the lockscreen temp digits, mine reads 00 degrees outside, when it should say 100, the 1 got thrown off the left side of the screen.

Now I'm not shocked, cause when i had my og EVO, it did the same, but we figured that was due to the roms being at a different density, apparently not, looks like it just wasn't designed properly.
[HTC EVO 3D] anti-up:
Right now, mine says 101 degrees..... Hot as balls!
[HTC EVO 3D] speedy0339:
I already told HTC about this, and they sent it off to their software team
[HTC EVO 3D] DozeBeatS:
Its only 06 degrees here.
[HTC EVO 3D] sn0b0ard:
Yeah mine is always like that because I live in one of the hottest areas of the country, lol. Sucks for us I guess, but not a big deal.

We just need a way to force a smaller font or indent the damn temperature reading to the right.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
no kidding. got that here too. 02 degrees, but it shows the high as 102 right next to it.
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
I was just about to post this. 103 in NYC!! I just got out of work...it's hotter than satans dik out there! Yea and the 1 is off the weather lock screen. It has nothing to do with shifted screens or tilts. I wonder what else is off that we don't even notice?? hMMm HTC better fix this horse sh!t!!:rolleyes:

[HTC EVO 3D] CrippleB:
Well at least it was HTC fault. I remember when ported roms were coming out and people thought it was the fault of the port. Now we know it was there from the beginning.
[HTC EVO 3D] Eat it iPhone:
Same issue here, 05 degrees
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Besides the 1 being off on the lockscreen, the resolution of the numbers just look like crap. They seriously couldn't make the numbers more clear, instead they look blurry.

I just can't believe no one at HTC was like damn, why do the numbers look so bad maybe we should fix them. How hard could that of been for them?
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
Move to Canada....
[HTC EVO 3D] CrippleB:
Would moving to Canada fix the blurry numbers or resolution?

Both! LOL

galaxySII-I9100 Usbhost mode with external wifi card & Backtrack5 (Chroot & usb help)

I finally got this working very well with backtrack5 lxde.

i'm trying to take advantage of usb host mode on my device. I want to hook up a alfa network card(AWUS036h) because the wireless card on my phone doesnt allow layer-2 transfers or packet injection. (useless)

i've made a cable that grounds pin 4 (making it a host cable) and powers the card with DC.

the phone recognizes the card as unknown (obviously because android os doesnt have the nessesary drivers)

when I use lsusb: (with host unplugged)

bus 001 device 001:ID 1d6b:0002

bus 001 device 002:ID 1519:0020

when I use lsusb: (with host plugged)

bus 001 device 001:ID 1d6b:0002

bus 001 device 002:ID 1519:0020

bus 002 device 001:ID 1d6b:0002

bus 002 device 002:ID 05e3:0608

So Definitely recognized.

my question is how can I bind the USB device in android to the backtrack chroot session.

once it's in backtrack i can install the driver.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sérgio Luís:
I bought a skinomi screen protector with solution spray bottle.

After applied the spray and the screen protector, it got blurred and matte.

I contacted them and I had to pay for another screen protector.

While I'm waiting the mail to deliver the new screen protector, I decided to buy another one here in my country. This one it just came with screen protector and it is blurred and matte too.

Now I'm affraid that the solution spray could damaged my screen.

Anyone can tell me what can I use to clean my screen before the new Skinomi arrives ?

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kotaro_14:
This is a common side-effect. Make sure you apply the solution to the screen protector not the screen. Make sure you squeegee out all the solution. I recommend using liquid soap and water than Skinomi's solution. I recommend getting SGP instead of Skinomi. You also have to wait 2-3 days for the matte/haziness and bubbles to disappear.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sérgio Luís:
I´m going to try to do it when my new screen protector arrives.

Thanks a lot.

things got very complicated....

but i have much experience from other phones and systems.

i found the solution, restored my camera, all the apps still working and i think this should help others...

thinking of flashing i discovered this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=945035 and i get the tools pack from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14801445#post14801445

i downloaded the sbf of my brand (claro 2.2.1) at http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy

i depacked the sbf and repacked only with the CG34.smg (boot) but not worked

so i thinked the system file CG39.smg will work (because when my windows fails i just reinstall the system files from cd and it works with all files and programs)

i repacked again with CG39 and CG34 (just for precaution) and the problems was solved (the camera and the boot loop).

all my programs are back, camera, games, everything, without flashing (the whole sbf) and without wipeing the data.....

i posted in the other thread too.

i thanks every reply!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] whpsnp:
While generally being quite happy with the Gingerbread update for my Desire Z, clearly there are a few glitches.

First of all, my DZ is a Nordic version with the characters Æ, Ø, Å, Ä and Ö on the hardware keyboard.

On 2.2 before the OTA there was a bug which consistently caused capitalization of Æ, Ø and Å (æøå) when using the hardware keyboard. I don't know about Ä and Ö which are only used in Swedish and not in Danish and Norwegian.

This bug is now fixed using the native keyboard but still present using Scandinavian Keyboard which I have installed from Market. I must admit that I have not contacted the developer to ask if this could be a bug in the app.

Sadly, I have now experienced another bug related to the hardware keyboard after updating to 2.3 - today it happened for the second time.

When typing in Whatsapp and the SMS app (and possibly other apps) using the hardware keyboard pressing "S" will open the SMS app, pressing "G" will open Gmail and pressing "B" will open the built-in browser (not Dolphin HD which is set to default). This is fixed by a reboot (temporarily, it seems). Incidentally, the bug disappeared just now without a reboot while checking if it was also present in Gmail.

The missing pictures bug in HTC's gallery app is still there - still using QuickPic.

Anything that is not listed here - please add to the thread.

EDIT:

As many others I also get the constant Sense restarting thing which is driving me insane!

Also the brightness setting itself to maximum many times.

A handful random reboots. A couple happened with no apps open and doing nothing on the phone - I just happened to notice when it rebooted.

Since monomer888's advise I haven't had another shortcut typing bug happen (as of yet). Thanks!

I'm running software version 2.42.405.2 CL84109

[G2 and Desire Z General] hugo_prado:
- when exit from a fullscrren app, sometimes the status bar doesnt fit all screen, leting a space (about 10% of the screen space). Expanding the status bar fix it

- Portuguese translation erros remains from the first rom 1.34!!!!!:

Call volume is "Volume de ligação recebida" - shuold be "Volume da ligação"

The tips widget is "Dicar", should be "Dicas"

And a few others, that I don't remember now.
[G2 and Desire Z General] craiglay:
I've only seen some minor UI bugs and most recently, the capital letters typing a text message. That only happens when I try to type too quickly after opening the thread.

I must admit that I havent seen the gallery bug yet but then I don't really use the camera.

Might be worth posting your version number to track regional bugs.

[G2 and Desire Z General] epochVHS:
I had the missing gallery pictures problem and the brightness problem as well-I have it normally on auto-bright, but sometimes when I wake it or reboot it, it automatically changes to full brightness and I have to select auto-bright again.

Also, Sense restarts after almost anything.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Arrch:
After installing, deleting or moving an app, returning to the home makes sense crash and restart.

I have a gallery bug aswell, can click on some line with pic and wording not shown.

I had once a bug in the unlock pin screen, tapping 7 was actually hitting 4, same if I hold on 7, i see the pressed status of the 4 button onscreen. It happened when i had no charge at all and plugged the phone to the usb port of my running pc. It was also impossible to switch on the phone, i had to plug it out.

Can't remember more right now.

[G2 and Desire Z General] noneabove:
I was wondering if anyone had noticed if there is still this bug or if you could test to check for me:

Start an app in portrait mode, slide out the keyboard for landscape mode, hit the home key. Do your apps/widgets load right away or within a couple seconds? For me it has always been that it will take 15-20 seconds for the screen to load, all I will see is the status bar and my background, no loading screen, no errors, nothing but that. Let me know if you had this prior to updating and also if you have it after, thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] BaconSauce:
ME TOO!

I also don't have album artwork shown in my music app :| Do you guys think HTC will bring out a software update for these bugs?
[G2 and Desire Z General] costipl:
Happens to me sometimes as well. Also, waking up by opening the keyboard may cause the widgets on the home screen to show after a few seconds.

I've experienced these as well. Funny thing is, I only experience the 10% bug in Facebook app.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Kueber:
Besides that "desktop loader" and sense-crash problem I got some strange issue with my mobile data connection - searched the forum for a while, haven't found anything, so I'll report it as a gingerbread bug.

Sense displays an activated connection all the time (3g/H - with those two little arrows flashing, thus indicating some traffic) but, unfortunately totally random, it decides to stop working.

Only way to check the data connection is browsing google. Turning off/on fixes the problem temporarily.

In addition, the speed of my mobile connection seem to be capped at some point - typically, depending on my location, it'll stick with 3G instead of H until I reboot. (noticed a remarkable speed difference by browsing the web before and after reboot)

Anyone similar problems?

Desire Z - 2.3.3 Stock
[G2 and Desire Z General] craiglay:
@Kueber;

While i've only seen the sense reload when my phone is uunder a lot of CPU load, I have seen it.

Regarding the data issue, i've only seen it with a certain app, "London Journey" This would retrieve some downloads, but not others. Maybe its a change in the data API relating to the new Download API. Using any other app was fine.

In maybe a slightly related issue, I've noticed that when in GPRS or EDGE, its much more reluctant to go to HSPA, especially when the H signal is low. However, this would normally just drop straight back to G / E anyway so is an improvement in my mind. It also seems quicker to see the HSPA connection has been lost and goes to G / E.

In your case, if location determins 3G rather than H, it could indicate you mobile provider may not have upgraded all their sites yet. If it passes data, then its stuck at 3G.

Craig
[G2 and Desire Z General] Kueber:
Hey there, thanks for your answer.

The strange thing is that my previous phone (HTC Legend) always displays a HSDPA connection (speaking of my hometown as testing area). My Desire Z also states a H connection until it get capped somehow. Then I reboot and the little H is back. It is definitely not a display bug, since the speed difference, as already mentioned earlier, is noticeable after rebooting.

Is there some kind of a "user control" in areas that aren't fully covered by a mobile provider, so that my connection may drop due to non using the phone? (It happens normally while phone is sleeping) And is it possible that my Legend, 2.2 stock btw, just isn't very accurate when it comes down to displaying the current connection speed? - to mention your point of a quicker HSDPA loss on gingerbread.

greetings
[G2 and Desire Z General] marlar:
I also have the Sense constantly restarting. It is really, really, REALLY annoying!

It happens about 50% of the times when I return to the home screen from any app, even the browser.

Has any of you tried uninstalling the Gingerbread update? Don't even know if it is possible, though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] fongkit82:
beside the above bugs. the missing pictures bugs also affects my sound files. i can't change my ringtone or alarm tone. it will change back to the default ringtone every few hrs as the sound files went missing on my sd card. has to do a sdrescan to get it back. but few hrs later it will go missing again & ringtone either be empty or back to default.

Time to root the damn thing

This is a mis-design rather than a bug: Peep is effectively useless now that it attempts to display linked web pages itself – many web pages just don’t work (flash, presumably) and there’s no way to open the tweeted link in a proper browser. It’s also unnecessarily difficult to retweet – you have to share the tweet from Peep with Peep! :mad:

I’m seeing all the other issues as well, and had a nightmare with data roaming while I was on holiday – if it lost the signal while driving it would then refuse to reconnect data for hours saying “You have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming turned off”... which I hadn’t. :eek:

[G2 and Desire Z General] whpsnp:

[G2 and Desire Z General] whpsnp:
I got the same response from HTC Norway but they did file my report and supposedly passed it on to Taiwan. I guess the more Desire Z owners submit an official bug report the more likely we are to see an official fix.
[G2 and Desire Z General] whpsnp:
Unfortunately, I think you are waiting in vain.

I don't think HTC will provide this option for phone models older than Sensation and Evo 3D.
[G2 and Desire Z General] emc_es7k:
I am having some of the same issues, Album art, Sense crashing plus one other. The desktop clock in night mode no longer functions as before. Before the update the desk clock provided a couple of features, the clock digits would float around the screen (to prevent LCD burn in). This feature was activated by a couple of icons off the main desk clock screen and would flip to landscape mode (when I put the phone on the desktop charging stand). It still works properly if you press the desktop icon but not if you press the night time icon (moon/star). It only dims the back light a bit.

I called HTC support to report this bug. Needless to say they had not heard about it before.

As for the Sense UI crashing when you exit from apps, they are not to forthcoming about that issue either only saying it could be a corrupted file during the update process. Their only suggestion was to do a factory reset....Not good.

Oh well, guess I'll just have to bit the bullet and try.:mad:
[G2 and Desire Z General] darthmelk:
I did a factory reset and Sense UI is still restarting after running some apps. And every time after running Market to install/update/uninstall something. Maybe there's not enough free RAM and Sense is unloaded automatically from memory when another app requests more RAM?

The keyboard often stops working normally and will start searching or running some apps when I try to write. Happens often.

The only good thing factory reset did to my phone is that now I don't get random reboots.
[G2 and Desire Z General] whpsnp:
Regarding random reboots this has not occurred to me since turning having gps off. Unfortunately, this effectively stops geotagging of photos and I have to switch it on manually everytime I use Maps.

Could someone with reboot issues check if they have gps on and if so check if random rebooting stops with gps off?
[G2 and Desire Z General] moolash:
I confirm Sense is restarted even with GPS (and cell positioning) OFF.

Reading this thread, I started to be worried too. It is just a little annoying, but it should NOT do it, I agree.

It must be about memory, I guess, although it sometimes does it after quitting from tiny, low mem apps, too.
