Easiest way BY FAR is this (I just got a replacement in the mail for my G2 and had to re-root, reinstall CM7... It took less than 20 minutes total.)

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928160

^ won't let me post official links yet lol.

IGNORE THE PART ABOUT INSTALLING THE ENG-HBOOT. You do not need it at all, and will only complicate the fu** out of the process.

After this, installing Cyanogenmod is a cake walk.

1. Breathe

2. Install ROM Manager from the Market

3. Open ROM Manager and Click the top most option, "Flash Clockworkmod Recovery".

4. After this is complete, click Download ROM in ROM Manager.

5. Click Cyanogenmod (not nightlies)

6. Click 7.1.0-RC1

7. Download

8. Click Google Apps

9. Hit Ok

10. Make sure all three options are checked (Backup existing ROM, Wipe Data and Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache)

11. It will reboot and install automatically, then reboot into your new custom ROM.

12. Enjoy!

If you want to backup all your apps and data (Messages, settings, account informations), download Titanium Backup from the market before step 2 and click Menu on your phone --> Batch Operations --> Backup ALL Apps + Data. Voila, when you reboot into CM7, you want to open up Titanium Backup and click "Restore ALL Apps + Data". Reboot once more. Voila, custom ROM + All your old data/settings/apps.

Enjoy man! Welcome to the glorious world of root ^_^
[G2 and Desire Z General] nik.the:
Also, there are videos of installing CM7 on G2. Search unlockr.com for G2 advanced videos.

Honestly, its just a learning process...you need to scour the net to figure this out. XDA forums + Cyanogenmod Forums + Unlockr.com are your best friends for pretty much anything/everything you need to know.

Its been forever since i got my g2, are ppl still using gfree? That was ridiculously simple when i got mine. Or is there some new somehow easier way? I just remember when i got mine gfree method was the preferred method.

Seriously, why bother telling somebody to search. If you've got nothing helpful to ad maybe just don't say anything?

I for one am thankful for this thread, I'm a newbie and read all the different rooting threads and basically felt overwhelmed due to the many different methods and choices. It makes you feel more confident when several people say "do this, its the easiest".
[G2 and Desire Z General] Caz666:
I feel for you man. I come from the milestone section of xda. Things were simpler there...1 way to do things. Also less people meant less repeat questions and therefore less rtfm/search reponses.

My experience: all guides were simple to follow and people in each thread answered questions in a friendly manner. The hardest part for me? Donwgrading to a vulnerable ruu. If you dont need to goldcard, the guide with gfree is a piece of cake.

Good luck.
[G2 and Desire Z General] epolaris:
In my experience, the visionary/gfree method is quite easily the simplest...

Check it out here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928160

However, It doesn't always work. It depends on whether or not you have received your Froyo OTA to v1.22 yet, in which case, it doesn't....

You would have to use this method which involves setting up and using ADB to gain permanent root... This is recorded in the XDA Wiki. The link to the article is referenced in the link above...

If you've upgraded to gingerbread then it gets more difficult. You will have to use this method..

Check that out here: http://theunlockr.com/2011/07/22/how-to-downgrade-a-gingerbread-t-mobile-g2-so-it-can-be-rooted/

That should do it... But you should note that a lot of people are just not willing to do the reading necessary to find the answers. Sometimes people may snap at you because they are tired of doing what i just did... Threads are filled with people asking the same questions over and over again...

You may be different but just saying... Read first then ask later...
[G2 and Desire Z General] PaganAng3l:
Take my advice and use the xda wiki. It took me thirty minutes to root via that guide. Also, for the love of god don't follow the user's instuctions that said to skip s-off! That is so important, and often the only thing that saves a user who flashes an incorrect rom, or accidentally does something stupid.

Btw: notice how all of the senior members reccomend the xda wiki, and gfree? Probably something to that, anyway here's the wiki, happy flashing! :D

[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
Please read the ENTIRE POST before doing this. I'm not responsible for your screw-ups.

WARNING: Any setting other than default WILL cause your gallery/video player to have force closes.

To change your pixel density permanently you will require the following in advance...

- ROOT

- Root Explorer

METHOD

1. Open Root Explorer and navigate to /system

2. Set the file system to r/w state using the r/w button at the top of the Root Explorer screen

3. Long press on the file "build.prop" and select to open with text editor

4. Locate the line in the text of build.prop that says "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" and swap out "240" for your desired pixel density

5. Press the menu key and select "save & exit"

6. Reboot the phone.

7. Profit?

In my tests anything from 240 to 170 is pretty useable. I set mine at 180.
[LG Optimus 3D] jammysunny:
Did you check your Cam?

And the App "BladeBuddy" does the Same and I think, its more easier this way^^

Your Density must have 181, otherwise Cam doesnt function well......
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
Camera is working fine for me at 180.
[LG Optimus 3D] Jabbypants:
does this not still cause the video player to force close after playing 1video.
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
im not sure if that is the cause as i ahve removed numerous lg apps from my rom now. im gonna try out wwmod quickly and then flash back to stock and test this further. will report back in a couple of hours.
[LG Optimus 3D] androidfanboi:
why would you want to have less pixel density?
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
To fit more stuff on screen.
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
Ok, ive tested a bunch of different densities now and that lgvideoplayer error occurs with all of the except the default setting. Fixing this is beyond my skillset.
[LG Optimus 3D] TheWeasl:
you can choose every density. but the lowest shouldn't go under 182...if you do that you cam is ****ed and won't work...

[LG Optimus 3D] typhex:
So what's the best density? I am on 182 and my key board doesn't autofit, also the gallery doesn't cit
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
Youll have to experiment and see what works best with whichever launcher you are using. Just be aware that other glitches may arise from the mod.
[LG Optimus 3D] typhex:
Any density from 182 to 200. Try 3D space then gallery. It won't fit to the screen
[LG Optimus 3D] TheWeasl:
hab ich garnicht gewusst! wusste nur, dass bei 180 die cam abkackt und jemand sagte mal 182 ist das limit.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khali3620:
Hi To All

I want to know if I can find the kernel source for HTC Deisre HD/ACE which is equivalent to linux 2.6.36 or 2.6.37.

I know there is working 2.6.35 which I have built and used. There is also a 3.0 on which cyanogen is working. But I am specifically interested in 2.6.36 or 2.6.37.

I found some 2.6.37 msm kernel like the one from cupiver, but they dont have the config file for ace/desire hd and the config file from the phone doesnt help either.

Anyone can help me on this?. I would do anything for them. Please!

Thanks and Regards

[Galaxy S II General] saayinla:
Sorry for this rant but I am finding it more difficult to live with these Issues everyday..

1. The call history list all calls (dialed, missed, received) and Messages as well! this is annoying, I dont want to see my message history in my call log, and there is no way to hide it except to view by just one call category, Dialed, missed or received.

2. Dialing a contact by name from the phone key pad, I can only search by the First name and not by second name, On my htc Desire/HD I could very well search by any of the names listed for a contact but unable to do so on this phone, this is really annoying as well.

3. Pull down notification bar would not work in the middle of a call unless I go to the home screen.. not cool.

If anyone knows a work around or other roms that addresses these issue please feel free to recommend.

Thanks in advance.

[HTC Inspire 4G] chocodough:
I was curious if anyone thinks that HTC's impending Gingerbread update for the Inspire 4G will fix the issues with the crappy speaker volume and tinny sound?

Probably not being as the DesireHD still suffers from it I believe even after the GB update.

I am not really into rooting, so the rooting arguments aren't valid. I prefer to stay stock.

Also on a different note, how do you tell if you are on 4G? Eventhough I am in a so-called 4G area, my network status always says HSDPA. I though I read somewhere if you are on 4G it says HSPA or HSPA+.

thanks for the info.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dhtlarmon:
It might have a new radio that will fix bugs, but if I were to take a guess I would say no since the ROMs out there now do not.

If it says H+ then you're running 3.5/4G.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chocodough:
Acutally no, the H+ does not mean you are on 4G. It always says that, even in areas i know for a fact are still 3G. I remember when I got the phone it had the H+ even when AT&T didn't have the 4G network up yet.

I'm pretty sure when you look at the Network status under about phone it changes there. I noticed yesterday that an Atrix with the new GB update now says HSPA under network status.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stryfe2010:
You could always check into getting a warranty replacement cause even before I rooted my speaker hasn't suffered from any sound problems so maybe you have a bad speaker. Also you say you want to stay stock, there is a rooted stock rom in the developers thread.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dhtlarmon:
That's weird, because mine switches back to 3G sometimes. Maybe it's due to the ROM I'm running. Sorry if I provided wrong info.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chocodough:
I know it's not a bad phone. I've had mine before the general public got them. Everyone I know that went to that HTC conference complained about the bad speaker volume and clarity. Actually there are many threads on here and other forums with a ton of people complaining about it. Even the Devs made patches to try and fix it.

So I know it's a design issue.

Here's an example. If my iPhone is sitting downstairs on the table and I am upstairs, I can hear if I get a text or email. With my Inspire, I can't even hear it if it is on my belt and I am standing outside. If I didn't have it on vibrate I wouldn't even know I received a text. A few co workers who have the Inspire have the same issues, and their from different batches.

Bluetooth is also weird. If I have my BlueAnt on and get more than 10 feet from the phone it disconnects. With my iphone I can be on the other side of the house away from my phone and it still stays connected.

But anyway, I'm still trying to figure out the 4G indicator to know when I'm actually in 4G. I thought I remembered people here talking about it awhile back, but can't find any threads on it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bosnazmaj:
In reality the H+ will always be on regardless of if ure actually on 3.5, 3.0 or 4.0, atleast with the inspire. The only way is to look under about phone under settings. The reason AT&T put it like that as to make u believe that their 4g is everywhere and better. But in reality it really doesn't matter as At&ts 4g is not 4g regardless of what they call it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chocodough:
Well regardless of it not being true 4G, there has to be an indicator somewhere on what 3G variant you are on.

Being as the Atrix now displays HSPA on the new GB rom, unlike when it still said HSDPA in the same area with an Atrix which was still on 2.2 leads me to believe the radio in GB must be more accurate in showing what network you are on.

I am guessing that the Inspire is currently not displaying correctly being as it still says HSDPA sitting right next to an Atrix on GB which says HSPA under About Phone and Network.

My Inspire always says HSDPA regardless if I am in a so-called "4G" area or not.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
It is most likely that the inspire just wasn't configured to show the HSPA. Att might have thought they were gonna get an update out first. Could be the atrix is set if the data speed hits a mark it changes the HSPA and the Inspire isn't set for it yet. The only true test would be doing a speed test on both.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stickbo:
Its not just you, the speaker is crap and so is the bluetooth, and so is the cell radio,and so is the battery, and the screen pops up, and.... LOL

I have 2 inspires and have had nothing but trouble. First htc that has let me down. I had a friend that went through 3 inspires trying to get the bluetooth fixed and they were all the same, he has since moved on. Hell I can put my phone right next to my radio and cover the bluetooth ant with my hand and get it to break up, pure crap. If I use a bluetooth headset it will start to get staticy if I put the phone in my pocket.I honestly think it has allot to do with the metal body.

I hate to be debbie downer but its true. You will be hard pressed to find allot of negative posts here because we have pride in ownership. I personally dont care. I call a spade a spade, and this phone has some serious issues. Not to say I dont like the phone because I do. But without the dev support I would have chucked this flacker a long time ago. With the proper rom its just so fast.

Now I will say that ever since I moved to virtuous unity my speaker is worlds better. I have flashed a **** ton of roms and vu has the best speaker performance for my inspires by far. I tried +20% kernels,dsp manager,volume apk and all that stuff. sure it made the volume louder some but it sounded like ass and still wasnt even close to being loud. with virtuous unity I am actually somewhat satisfied. Youtube videos and stuff still lack, but its worlds better.

As for actually being on the hspa+ signal or not, I dont know. On the stock rom I am almost certain the 3g,hspda, and hspa+ are all signified by h+. I know that allot of dev roms differentiate between 3g and hspa. But quiet honestly the speed difference is not night and day anyway. Your iphone probably gets damn near the same speeds. Some guys are getting 8megs and ****, but I have yet to go over 5 and I can get that with an iphone or other 3g android. And yes I am in a hspa+ area with increased backhaul.

I dropped my sensation on a concrete floor and have managed to shatter the plastic on the back cover. Anyone know where I could purchase a genuine HTC back cover plate? I'm live in the uk. will htc send me one if i contact them, if so what email address or phone number should i contact them on?

Look forward to the reply

about the number, i would give it to you but id rather you search for it.

its pretty easy
[HTC Sensation] kmdub:
What a douche. It took you more time and board space to give a smart-ass answer than to just give him/her the number. What if you walk up to someone on the street and asked for the time, only for them to tell you "Well, I would give it to you, but I would rather you search for it, since it is so easy to find." I would probably call you a dickhead and tell you I did search for it, but apparently people, and the interaction that goes along with it, are not sources of information anymore and are no good for society.

You could have just not gave him the number and just the information about the back cover, but instead you decided to be a douche. Think about it.

The BOGO blew out all of the on hand stock for the Droid 3 in the Houston area. My son in law and I went in on the BOGO and he unfortunately got a lemon. It was freezing and rebooting after 4 days. He took it in to the store to swap it out and during the local technicians attempt at troubleshooting the phone got locked in a boot cycle. Then when they went to replace it they could not locate a D3 in the area at all. The warehouse is out, and 611 customer service is out. He was told there was at least a 6 week back order.....

Yeah, they gave him a X2 for now, but it took all kinds of red tape since his phone was the "free" one the system did not want to allow the swap. Big red can be a pain at times.
