Okay I tried it myself and I could do hardware reset. BUT I lost partial function of my homekey (it worked for unlocking screen but it doesnt bring up home screen).

I installed 2.3.3 update through SEUS and it worked, but I lost my root acces. Fixed the home key though.

So I had to use Flashtool to go back to 2.3.2, root and ota to 2.3.3 without removing bloat.
[Xperia Play General] captain67:
Whenever you wanna do a reset or an update you need to restore the bloatware first. Otherwise what you described with the home screen will happen, and OTA won't work.

Now that you have 2.3.3 with root, backup the bloat with titanium first, then uninstall it. As long as you restore it before another reset or update it'll be fine.

[HTC EVO 3D] ColdH33t:
Just finished painting the extra Commuter Case Plastic Piece.

I started out by isolating the upper part with blue painters tape. Then I spray painted it with Rustoleum Red for Plastic (wanted Krylon Fusion but I couldn't find it anywhere). Sanded down and repainted like 4 times. Finally I took some Brasso and gave it a nice finish. I probably should've used some clear finish, but there's always more time.

Comments?
[HTC EVO 3D] jmonshau:
looks cool, did u sand it first or did ya just paint it? i think im going to do that but im going to have it john deere colors, green on one half, yellow on the other
[HTC EVO 3D] ColdH33t:
Nah I didn't sand first. The surface seemed rough enough. Just covered the bottom with painter's tape .

Well it looks cool, just might have to do the same!!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] offwiththeface:
Hi I am looking at purchasing one of the two which do you think is a better buy?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nospin:
Desire HD is (slightly) more powerful, Desire Z has a keyboard... there you go!

All preference at this point, if you don't need the hardware keyboard, get the desire hd.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redshoes:
Up to priorities. I can't live without the hardware keyboard, I don't find writing on touch screen very comfortable, so I took the Desire Z :)) but I don't like the poor sound / low ringer on the Dezire Z. Hardly can hear when ringing outside and constantly looking for an application to fix this.

Hope other HTC don't have this problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkmurphys:
You can fix the sound quality on Desire Z with different apps and even boost the volume. The European Desire Z's had an audio level restriction placed on them. Depends what ROM you are running to know which application would work for you...

This search brought quite a few results...

As for HD vs Desire Z, there isn't much difference except the obvious.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
DHD has more RAM, it can run the new sense 3.0 ROM's a lot better than the DZ.

As people have said what it really comes down to is do you need the hardware keyboard or not?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Neither. Both are pretty old at this point, getting close to a year for both. That's pretty long in the tooth in smartphone terms, and its hard to justify buying either new at this point, with better options available. Depending on your market, I'd get a Sensation, if its available in your market. If you really need the hardware keyboard, and can get a good deal, get the Z. Otherwise I would wait and see what else is coming that may have a keyboard.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redshoes:
I'm using Virtuous Doubleshot v1.1.0 RC1 Sense 3.0 Espresso rom and Unity v 4 kernel. I installed volume plus a month ago which was pointed to work with android 2.3.3 but I don't see any difference. Thanks for the answer.

[Xoom General] Kippui:
MX video player released a player and codec update recently.

2 videos that lag horribly with moboplayer are now are watchable with MX video player.

One of the files was a 720p anime scene release(L4.1) and the other was a high profile(L4.0) Asian movie.
[Xoom General] timrock:
I got the update but didn't test it out yet. This is good news.
[Xoom General] JanetPanic:
The default video player that comes with 3.2 definitely has improved high profile support. The Xoom can now play my default mkv (h.264, smart weighted p-frames, optimal b-frames, cabac and 8x8 transform with 5 reference and 4 b frames) rips. On 3.0 and 3.1 I had to re-rip the movies using a less ambitious profile (no weighted p-frames, 8x8 transform and cabac both off). I will probably continue to rerip to conserve space but it is no longer needed to make the movie watchable.

OTOH they still have not added audio track selection or subtitles. Most of the time not a problem but in some cases it chooses the director's commentary for instance.

QQ player can choose audio and subtitles but can not play my default rips smoothly. (None of the rips are 720p, just standard DVD rips kept at original resolution.)
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Woah, now you are over my head codec guru.

I just know that my HD stuff is watchable now lol. I guess the "Tegra 2 can't handle high profile because of hardware limitations" is getting closer to not being true after each honeycomb update + great software decoding from players on the market. :)
[Xoom General] laxwillsch:
Does anyone have the stock video player APk? My wifi xoom never came with one. Weirdest thing ever, and I haven't needed it but the comment above made me think I should give it a shot.
[Xoom General] timrock:
I don't think there is such a thing. Videos are played thru the gallery. Unless you download a 3rd party app.
[Xoom General] JanetPanic:
I have an app called "videos" that I am reasonably certain came with the original buildout for the Verizon Xoom... or maybe 3.1. I did not install it separately.
[Xoom General] tekbrain:
Very good payer indeed! :-)
[Xoom General] tekbrain:
And perfect integration with my TVersity server, better than with Mobo.
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Ok the update is good. I can now play some of my high profile 720p videos seamlessly. This puts it as good as Diceplayer, another player that supports playback of some high profile videos.

The only thing missing is that MX player still doesn't dim the honeycomb status bar during playback. Diceplayer does that.

Edit: Oh seems like the developer of MX player is still looking into dimming the status bar. Should be coming out in next build. Cool.
[Xoom General] burden010:
Yeah MX seems to be getting better and better at high profile but it's still not as smooth as Dice Player yet.
[Xoom General] timrock:
Videos came with the 3.1 update. For those that purchased a xoom before this update, the app was not there.
[Xoom General] JanetPanic:
Ah ok. I bought the xoom the day it came out but listen to music and read on it far more than I play videos. Hard to keep track of what version added what feature sometimes.

Tengo una pregunta de Newbie... :S

I'm trying to created a package to install/replace 3 apps... Below is the code... I successfully created the zip but is not extracting nothing... any guidance would be appreciated...

mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "userdata", "/data");

ui_print("Deleting Current Exchnage clients...");

delete("/system/app/email.apk", "/system/app/exchange.apk", "/system/app/emailwidget.apk ");

# Deleting Current Exchange client/apk...

ui_print("Extracting new email app...");

package_extract_file("data/Email.apk", "/system/app");

# Extracting Current EmailWidget client...

package_extract_file("data/Exchange.apk", "/system/app");

set_perm(0, 0 , 755, 644, "/system/app/Exchange.apk");

# Extracting Current Exchange client...

ui_print("Installation Completed. Enjoy!");
[Android Apps and Games] anuragdc:
corrections are

Please make sure that you place email and widgets apk file in a folder system>app and then use package_extract_dir("system","/system") to move all apps at once .

Then when setting permission it should be 0755 and 0644 not 755 and 644

And add unmount("/system") command at the end before ui_print line

Make this correction and hopefully it will work
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtfd00d:
I have the HTC g2 tmobile phone. I have just gotten into the flashing/modding scene, and am having a blast tweaking the phone. I have been trying a lot of roms in the past days trying new ones I like or may not like. Anyway I had the Cyanogen nightly rom on there before I flashed with the virtuous sense v2.0. Everything seemed good until I tried unlocking the phone after the looong reboot. Now when I unlock it I get a lot of force closes. Specifically for messages, and media, then the phone just reboots. Keeps doing the same thing over and over? Any help? If I could just figuire out a way to reboot into recovery and flash w a diff rom, or is there something missing since Im getting the FC from a few things? Thanks a lot!!

hi wtfd00d, if u new to flashing rom and wanna flash a stable rom, try keep yourself away of any custom with name "Nightly/Nightly build" because Nightly build, although is kinda ahead of time, is still in development build and merely for testing. try flashing other rom if you would.

If you re not rooted, UA string: desktop won't stick. Root and install Doc's modded framework is the only permanent solution at the moment. Or else one round about is to set the start page to "about:debug" and press enter twice before going ok to your favorite site. Once to activate UA string(but you dont need ro go into settings itself since bizarrely that sticks). And once more to deactivate debugvso you dont seethe wweird java notification on websites.

Idk about your radio but the radio I use you need to use the headphones in order to listen to it.

I totally think I brick my Venue. Here's what happened, I pushed the - volume(down volume) and then the power. I got a nice little list of options. I then push the download SD option, out of curiosity,and then it started to do a factory reset.

Obviously I didn't want this, but It started to shutdown the phone. I thought hell I'll have to put everything back on the phone, but the phone never came back on.

You can see the power come on at the bottom when the buttons light up, but nothing not even the dell screen.

I can't even push the two volumes and power button to boot, or the down volume and power to boot. Any Ideas?

[Dell Venue] tuan.dsnq:
It is likely that you plug/unplug your USB cable quite frequently -> the device thinks that there are problems with your power supply and to save the battery's life the device stopped charging.

I think you can remove the battery, then insert it again + attempt to recharge. Please try!

Hold the "vol down" key while starting your phone. You should get the 3 color screen. Connect usb, you should see "usb" in the display.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ayyu3m:
You are doing it the reverse way. Take out the battery and reinsert again. Now as soon as you press the power button, press volume down and keep pressing. You gotta do this real quick.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
its not auto starting magldr because you either - 1 don't have 2.08.hspl (no other version hspl will do, only 2.08.hspl) or - 2 don't have a compatible radio , i.e one that is of the ..50.. version number, higher than 2.07.50

once you have both those conditions, magldr will appear without you dong anything when you start the phone, and probably hang at 'failed to load kernel' or something, because there is no ROM to load, but you will know its working, so reboot hold down just power, and the magldr menu will come up, and you can choose usb flashing and move on to flashing cwm.
