HTC HD2 512MB flash

ROM:1.66.407.1 German

Hard SPL: 2.08 HSPL

Radio Rom: 2.15.50.14

My Problem is, i can not wipe my NAND with Task29.

At the PC a have the folling Mesage:

Error [266]: Update Error

the Update Utility canot get response from your PDA Phone. Pleas check that your USB cradle/cable is connected properly between the PC and your PDA Phone. And also check your PDA Phone.

I have tryid this Step a few times, but its allways the same.

I try it with MAGLDR113 and with Easy Android.

Have anyone of you any Idee where the Problem is?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shankar10:
You have to enter Boot-loader mode. To do turn off the phone then press Vol down + Power button. Keep holding until you see the Tri-color screen, it's the boot-loader mode.

Connect your USB cable and you should see on the bottom the serial changed to USB.

Then open the task29 and follow instructions.

Turn on activesync usb connection under settnigs (depending on what you have now). and turn off the anti-virus.

If I solve the problem, please don't forget to thank.

The problem was with my PC... I dont know why but, i used the Laptop of my Girlfried make the MAGLDR113 run and all done.

Hi Devs,

I am trying to port an awesome rom from the i9000 forum, it's Surface 2.1. I've got everything working fine w/ Talon 0.4.3. But I cannot figure out how to get the home button to work, let alone haptic feedback. I've tried messing around with the Services.Jar file but I couldn't get anything working.

I've seen a thread about the haptic fix for jvp but I don't know if it will work in JVQ. I was hoping a dev could chime in and let me know what I need to do.

Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this.

Thanks,

Rich

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dlev7:
You want to go to into the system/user/keylayout/melfastouchkey and add

Key 102 HOME "And like WAKE-DROPPED or something I cannot remember"

That will give you the home key for the Captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
To get home button to work use whatever Dlev mentioned. For home haptic you need to do smali editing in android.policy.jar
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] astrocrep:
I tried the zip file, unfortunately it didn't work, even to make the home button function...

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
U sure that u r using captivate version of Talon and not I9000 one?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] astrocrep:
I just downloaded Snail too and tried that. v13-T1, same thing... no reaction from the home key...

The back key and settings key work as expected though.

Thanks for the help.

Edit: I just looked at the file on the phone and it's not the one from the zip... looks like the update.zip didn't copy it properly! Let me play with this now.

Edit: 2 it's working!! For some reason the zip file didn't update the file on the phone.

Thanks to everyone.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepherian:
If you read xcaliburinhand's kernel thread, he has a zip in there you can flash to fix the home button. Or you can unzip it to put it directly in the ROM. Worked when I ported H&F. Thus is non-aosp right?

A little history: I'll be leaving town for the next few days and needed a reliable rom... So I used SteelH's Stock 4.24.651.1 Rom found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1120840 (great Rom SteelH btw...) Then I realized I just cant stomach the stock sense much anymore so I decided to add my photon theme found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1175245 and well, this is what I got... The rosie has been modded too... I'm adding the wallpaper I used so you can have the same look. Just thought I would share... I'll be continuing on with a KroNiK series of new themes also...

[General Questions and Answers] kosred:
I'm not very technologically inclined but I have almost given up and decided to ask the experts:

I have a Palm Treo Pro with Windows Mobile 6.1 in which I have used Opera Mobile 10 since I got it. I have also had Flash Lite since the beginning and it has worked perfectly, I could visit Youtube and a grey box with a play button in the center would allow me to play the videos directly in the browser, tapping to go fullscreen.

Recently without any major changes to my phone I tried visiting Youtube and instead of the grey box for playing the video no longer appears. I click "Watch Video" and instead it launches Media Player Mobile which doesn't work anyways with Youtube for some reason. One day flash would play in the browser, and the next day it launches Media Player instead??

Plug-ins are set to ON, I have tried reinstalling Opera Mobile, Flash Lite, installed different versions and different combinations of versions for about two months now. I finally reset my phone to factory settings and started fresh, but still problems. I have no clue what I changed but I don't know why it wont allow me to play flash videos in Opera Mobile anymore. Instead it launches a player outside of Opera Mobile.

Question: How do I make Flash Lite my default Opera Mobile player? I want the grey box with the play button to watch in the browser. Now any flash videos don't show on pages, and any links to the video just launch in Media Player. I need the flash videos to quit launching to Media Player and show up/give me the option to play right in the browser.

P.S. from my googling it seems opera mobile and flash are a tricky subject?? I just don't understand what changed as I didn't really mess with anything.
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
Perhaps the issue isn't at your end at all. As time goes on older devices are going to get less and less support. Perhaps it's time for an upgrade?
[General Questions and Answers] kosred:
I know I could use a new phone and how quickly things become obsolete. I'm not sure what would have changed in support or compatibility as no upgrades or version changes have been made.

Well I was able to figure my flash is at least working correctly after downloading and trying another mobile browser. Its only the problem of Opera now using Media Player as its default software for playing. There are no settings I can find for this but if I could switch the default player to the Flash that I have installed.

I was under the impression Opera should use the flash plugin automatically when I go in and enable plugins in Opera. It did this without problem until recently I wonder if Media Player launched and set itself as default player or something. There are no settings in Opera or Media Player for file associations, etc. I have tried looking in the .ini files for Opera as someone has suggested to me but no luck. Hopefully I will be able to get a new phone soon :/

[Acer Iconia A500] pfc.joker:
GV is one of the hidden apps on Stock rom - I'm going to guess due to Acer and/or Google being in bed with with the various carriers - why would anyone buy an A501 when they can get wifi calling with a real phone number using GV on a cheaper A500?

Sad but what can you do short of going to a custom rom?

why root? there is no need to root in JFD to get CWM working. here is the update.zip, put it on sdcard, and boot into it, and then flash CM7 by hand. BAM! you're golden!

no need for root.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwleonhart:
Yea just copy update.zip to sd card, reboot into standard recovery, apply update.zip, hit it a second time and then boom your in cwm.

You do have usb debugging enabled when your trying to root right? And usb is not connected as a mass storage device? If you do it wont work...!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souleater11:
That Noob guide is titled for rooting method.

so that thread is misleading because it only install CWM without rooting the vibrant phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Option A is for rooting.

Option B is for installing CWR and then flashing a new ROM straight away.

That is actually how I rooted my with Option A and messed around and cleaned the bloat from my stock ROM before I decided on which custom to flash b/c I hate Superoneclick and have never got it to work correctly on any phone. Some others have, I haven't.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souleater11:
Thank you for this clarification.

btw, i plan to use method A.

it seems steps 3 to 5 (OP Noob Guide) is exclusively for method B.

1. can you share me your experience in the steps 3 to 5 for using method A?

2. Do I have to Select Reinstall packages again for method A ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
If all you are wanting to do it root your phone, just download Option A.

This is what I did (without ever plugging my phone into PC once).

1. I downloaded Option A to my SDcard.

2. Booted into stock Recovery and since it was already labeled Update.zip, I just installed it that way. (You could rename it something like Rooter.zip and then you would pick the option in Recovery to :install from SD

3. Booted up and made sure Superuser.apk was there. It was.

4. Went to market to download CWR (free version) and installed it.

5. Made back up through CWR

6. Removed Bloater,blah blah blah and not once did I ever plug my phone in. Maybe I got lucky, maybe it was something else, but it worked for me. Later on I did copy all that to my PC because as you know, links do tend to get broken around here.

Less than a week later I had read and picked out custom ROM and flashed that. Most custom ROMs have a recovery already built into them.

Good luck and remember the first thing that you should do whenever you Root a phone is to get into Recovery and make a back up then and there, so that if/when you ever have to warranty your phone, you can restore it and remove the SU.apk and they will be none the wiser.

Note that Option B does have CWR included and I have read here and there that CWR free isn't in the market for some reason. Not sure about that though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souleater11:
Thanks a lot. its a great help. i will try this.

it seems the free version of ROM manager is not anymore compatible in Android 2.1
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Whitehawxx (spelling is probably off on that) has a 2.2 full bloat in the Dev thread if you want to use that and then you can use CWR from market. Just read the OP. Good luck and I am out for the day.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souleater11:
Thanks for the suggestion but I will root from stock 2.1 and just install an old version of ROM manager from 4shared.com
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] souleater11:
if I follow your rooting method (A), is it safe to flash a miui gingerbread mod roms (miui nb or miui galnet) ?

to paraphrase, is it safe to flash from a newly rooted Android 2.1 to custom rom Android 2.3 ?

assuming I successfully flashed to Android 2.3, is my Super User still intact?

I just apprehensive about your method A, because some rooting methods (Z4root) when transfer to another firmware can cause a lost of Super user permission.

So I flashed imoseyon's swap zip to see if it provided any boost to my overall performance (running LGS 1.4 and imo's lean kernel)...

while checking to see if the mod had taken effect with the following script: "bash /data/imoseyon/checkimosey.sh" the "I" in "imoseyon" kept auto-capitalizing, resulting in "no such directory." Switched the input method from swype, entered the script and BAM "everything is good!" -- Sure this is common knowledge, but just in case someone is unaware, I figured I should share.:)

Overall performance seems to be a bit faster and "cripier" lol...but it's def too soon to tell.
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
Swype is aware of the 'I' capitalization issue. I found out about it when swype 3.0 came out and when I mentioned it on their forums, they replied they already found out after release and would be patching it in the next version :). I just get around it by adding words and swyping them on the terminal.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k4zyn:
I'm going to be blunt here and say straight up that I don't remember how my phone used to answer phone calls......I know that sounds stupid but I literally do not know if I slid to answer, or pushed a button, or what....but here's my problem:

As of right now, if someone calls my phone while the screen is off, it will pop up with answer and ignore buttons. This has enabled me to "pocket answer" twice today, because when I try to get my phone out of my pocket, one of my fingers hits "answer" .......... surely it wasn't like this before? I have never had this issue.

How does a stock atrix handle calls when the screen is off? How do I get it back to the way it was? I feel like a full-retard for not knowing what it used to look like, but I cannot remember!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
Call screen pops up with sliders. Remains locked afterwards. So you can answer calls without unlocking your phone. If you are managing to stroke the sliders in your pocket, who knows whats going on in there! :eek:

My phone has had sliders for answering/ignoring calls since I bought it on 4.1.26.

Do you have your phone set to auto answer? Settings, call settings, auto answer.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
If the screen is on and a call comes in you should see "answer" and "ignore" buttons. If the screen is off and a call comes in you should see slide to unlock buttons for "answer" and "ignore". I don't think there's any setting to toggle to enable/disable the s2u for answer/ignore.

When you wake your phone do you see a slide to unlock screen or does it just go straight to the phone home screen? I had this happen to me and a factory reset fixed that up.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k4zyn:
LOL! Well that's the thing, right now it doesn't have sliders, it acts like the phone was in use when the call comes through, I get the same UI, the answer and ignore buttons at the bottom...no sliders.....

how do I get my sliders back? :( I am using widgetlocker for my lockscreen.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
disable widgetlocker and see if you still get the problem behavior. Here's an old thread describing your exact problem with widgetlocker being the culprit. It's over a year old so I would have thought it would be fixed by now. dunno.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k4zyn:
It was indeed widgetlocker's fault. That makes me sad :( why would it change all of a sudden? :(
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpagador:
Yeah i had that problem with widget locker as well when i set the setting to disable all default lock screen. I was hoping they'd have this fixed by now...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
I'm assuming widgetlocker was fine and dandy before the 2.3.4 OTA update right? Anytime there's a major release level update, e.g. 2.2.2->2.3.X, lots of things can go bonkers for 3rd party apps. Some things can break even with a minor release update, 2.2.1->2.2.2, but it's not as likely. It's just how it is in the world of software. fun huh? :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k4zyn:
I'm still on 2.2.2, I have another thread asking about updating hehe
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnahc79:
oh :). Well anyways you can always send an email to the widgetlocker dev(s). They probably already know about the issue but it doesn't hurt to send them a nice email about the problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirknattar:
Hey guys,

Odd issue. My bro bought an SGSII b/c he wanted one so bad. He got it through Virgin Canada (ordered online). Now our province (Manitoba) doesn't support HSDPA & only CDMA via Virgin. So he can make calls, send/receive txts but cannot RECEIVE calls. Virgin kinda screwed him by saying "we can do it" when they couldn't.

Is this as simple as switching up the modem on the phone to use CDMA? Or should he just return it and wait till an SGSII variant is officially released in our area?
