[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
I called and tried the to get the full $150 and they basically blew me off..Something about my phone is not THE main line. The contract is in my name and I added my mother and daughter but for some reason apparently my mosm phone is the main line..How the hell does this happen?

A supervisor told me that there isn't anything that can be done and some other stupid crap and if I wanted to upgrade now it would have to be on my mothers line..Well I don't want to start a 2yr contract over on her line cause she will be going to prepaid next year when the contract is up.

So my only choice is to cancel my contract and pay $100 then sell my EVO and move to another carrier..

Screw Sprint..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jefferskn:
I was able to get a supervisor to approve an upgrade overide. My $150 was supposed to be 8/01/11 before they changed they downgraded me to silver. I haven't used the upgrade yet because I haven't decided on a phone but I did get it approved. The thing that sucks is that it can only be with Sprint directly. Can't use your supervisor approved upgrade at another store such as Best Buy or Walmart where the prices are better.

Fcuk that, i haven't been out contract for 3 years.... Yes i can't get insurance ever again just the manufacturing warranty... But i no longer thirst for devices i can get cheaper off the net.... If a person wants a new device.... Just keep allowing them to extended the contract out.... Stop trying to appeal to new customer and become appealing to the old obes

So what qualifies as an error? I was told a few days ago that I could do it and now when I call back they are saying that promotion has ended.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
Do you know how much money is lost on every subsidized phone? Early upgrades kill profit and sometimes programs are stopped. What good is a provider if it's not making any profit and can't buy new phones or expand its network?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MedicStuder:
I called sprint and the rep told me it was 75 off the 2 year contract price. I made sure to ask her a second time if it was the contract price or retail price and she said it was the contract price because I would be signing a new 2 year contract.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncfastls1:
Interesting...I'll have to ask in person next time I stop by the sprint store. Cause I was really looking forward to the galaxy s 2 :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
There's no way. She's basically saying that the 1 year price is less than the 2 year price. I think we all know that's not true.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
Why would you get 75 off the full discount? Think about what you're saying. You're saying a one year upgrade is MORE than a two year upgrade. It's 75 off the full retail price.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikezilla9:
It is $75 off the retail price of the phone. You also have to sign a 2 year agreement so it resets when you would get your full upgrade. It really is not worth it at all. IMO, if you are going to spend that much on a phone might as just pay the retail price so you can keep when you will get your full upgrade.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SUCCESSOR:
that's basically what bkrogers already said. And I agree. buy an upgrade of ebay or craigslist one year then from the store the next with your full discount. plus on craigslist you can negotiate a trade and spend even less.

The money is not in the device is in the device... You actually think it cost $500 to make a device for the retail price they sell for out of contract... Try $80 bucks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
LOL $80 is the cost of the gorilla glass alone... Why do you think off-contract companies sell phones without discounts? You either subsidize the phone and sign a contract or pay full price and not sign a contract.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geeksquadryder:
No way, option 2 do like the cable companies and just lease the equipment. The money is in the service not the devices of course they make a lil something but not alot.... Ps3 the same thing.. they make a lil off the consoles but major cash off the games. U got alot to learn. That's why green energy is still left waiting in the hotel lobby cause car companies are still in bed with the oil

Hi guys,

I used to get a popup menu to select which app to play video when streaming upnp, I no longer get this popup and it seems like a player has set itself as a default and this app will not play my mp4 files, I've gone though all of my apps and non are set as default.

I'm running Vegan-Tab RC1 Gingerbread. Everything else seems fine.

I installed CleanDefault but still no popup. Can anyone suggest a solution. :eek:

UPDATE: I installed ES File Explorer and got the pop-up back, however when I try and play using ES Video Player I'm getting "Sorry The application has stopped unexpectedly, Please try again" I know my server is working ok since I can stream to my phone with no problem, this is only happening on the GTab.

Installed NWS Player and still cannot play video, they are encoded h264, is there a downloadable codec for Android? Anyone?

Hey appreciate everyone's help with all the gtab issues. I'm a newbie and also have the Vegan-Tab RC1 Gingerbread installed, but continue to have video playback issues from not only web content, but from usbdisk files as well. Case in point, watching mp4 of Jeff Beck from my usb attached to gtab and plays about 7 minutes then locks up and I have to power down the gtab and reboot. Getting pretty frustrated, but hope someone can direct me to someone who can help. I've read tons and nothing seems to be helping much. Thanks for your time.

title says it all. haven't noticed when it started but i'm pretty sure it was still working under cm7.0.3. what i've done so far:

edited profiles & installed sound manager (which reportedly worked for the hero/dinc, respectively, on cm7)

tried fresh cm7 (stable & nb) install

went back to a cm6 backup (where everything worked previously afaik)

cleared cache & dv

flashed Blay0's rom

..no dice! even haptic feedback doesn't work! :( haven't tried reverting to stock HTC though but having tried Blay0's, i'm thinking my phone's vibrate function is borked. i've scoured the 'net for anything but i just came up either with the same solutions i've tried above or none at all. any one with ideas? other than that, phone's functioning well...

How do I get rid of that icon in my notification bar? Does anyone know which program causes it? I checked the settings for Handcent and ADW Launcher and I don't see anything about it there. Help please?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Getting Rid of the Phantom Voice Mail Icon (The one that shows up in the top left corner, NOT the text message issue.) Source

MAKE A NANDROID just in case, (though you may want to flash your preferred ROM from scratch)

Obtain/find/borrow/buy a second non-Android Sprint phone (old, new, ugly, doesn't matter but must have a clean ESN)

Take your EVO back to a stock rooted ROM such as RUU SuperSonic EvO 3.70.651.1 OTA - Stock - Sense or Version 4.12.651.1

Log on to mysprint.sprint.com (or call Sprint if you are more comfortable and have them do the following)

On the main page scroll down to your device

Select "Activate a new phone" from the "Manage my device" pulldown

Follow the instructions and activate the non-Android phone on your account (temporarily removing the EVO from your account)

Once the non-Android phone is activated, follow all the steps to activate your voice mail account.

Call your phone from a land line and leave yourself a message

Open voice mail on your old phone and delete the new message and any others. Check it thoroughly to ensure no messages are saved in VM.

Log back on to mysprint.sprint.com (or call Sprint back) and reactivate your EVO following steps 5-6 above

Once your EVO is reactivated it should automatically re-provision your VM account.

Follow the instructions to get your VM account setup again. If you get a "Data Call Failure: Error Code 67" message when you reactivate your Evo, you need to update your Profile

Boot into recovery (this would be a great time to update the radios, PRI and PRL and make sure you update your profile (see link in Post #1))

Wipe everything using both recovery and a FORMAT_ALL type zip of your choice (links in Post #1)

Flash the ROM of your choice (you can try a nandroid, but it may or may not work cleanly, YMMV)

Make sure to keep an eye on your bill after you do this fix as some have reported billing errors. A call to Sprint should clear things up.

There IS an easier fix, I'm just trying to find it....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karasuhebi:
Thanks for the reply, but it's actually not a VM icon. My VVM is working just fine.. It's an SMS icon. It comes up every single time I get a text message (saying "from: [phone number of person that texted me]") so basically I get two SMS notifications.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Clearing the mail or sms messaging app's cache may help in this matter. Rebooting into recovery and wiping the cache and dalvlik can also do wonders.

Posting & replying from my EVO 4G
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
My bad, I misread. If you're using handcent, go to stock messaging app and turn off notifications.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karasuhebi:
@HipKat - I've used Handcent for a while, so I always know to turn off the notifications on the stock messaging app. So yeah. the stock messaging app notifications are off. I know what the icon for that notification looks like anyway. This is different. Some other program is causing this. Thanks for the suggestion though. :D

@dougjamal - I actually recently re-flash CM7.1.0_RC1 on this phone, so I went through the process of clearing all the caches in the recovery. Also as I said in my reply to HipKat, this doesn't seem like a notification from the stock SMS app or the Handcent app, it's some other app doing this. Also it kinda seems to me from reading your reply that maybe you think that the icon on my notification bar is like stuck there. It's not. I can clear it with no problems. It just keeps coming back every time I get a text message. It basically acts as a duplicate notification of any SMS that I get, sort of like having my notifications on the stock messaging app turned on in addition to the Handcent notifications. But that's not the case. Like I said, I know what the stock messaging notifications look like. This is something different. Again, thank you for the suggestion but that's not it.

Here's some more info to see if maybe it juggles someone's memory so they can help me: The last time this happened to me I went roaming the internet until I found this post on some other Android forum and it turns out what was causing a notification like this one wasn't even a messaging app. It was a launcher/home replacement app of some kind, IIRC. This is why I mentioned in my first post that I went through my ADW Launcher settings and had no luck.

Do you guys have any other ideas by any chance? Thanks in advance. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karasuhebi:
Anyone got a solution for this? Still having this issue. :-\
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
This is what I did on MIUI

If you didn't make a Nandroid of your phone, Stock/Rooted, find on on here and flash it, after you make a nandroid of your current setup.

Once you're in Stock/Rooted, open market and make sure VVM is updated. Then d/l Titanium Backup and make a backup of VVM.

Now, nandroid back to MIUI, and extract the app from the Titanium .apk backup.

The actual name is com.coremobility.app.vnotes-6334abeb61350a3ac2629cb6dc18c56e.apk.gz

Unzip that and extract com.coremobility.app.vnotes-6334abeb61350a3ac2629cb6dc18c56e.apk to your sd card. Using Root Explorer, or whatever you use, install the apk.

Open TB, and restore data.

Open VVM, compose a message to yourself.

Done

@HipKat Don't you remember you already replied to this thread with that same message? It's not a VVM icon, my VVM is working fine. It's a SMS icon.

[Motorola Droid 3] SS2006:
For those with Droid 3s that love to randomly reboot. and crash/lag

and also crash on camera, here is a fix

1) FACTORY RESET PHONE (Erase all data)

2) When its back up and your signing back in, DO NOT CHECK 'Restore Data' or 'Keep Device Backed up'

3) Open settings later, and ensure they're both unchecked under Privacy

NEVER enable them

4) For safety incase wifi settings were restored:

Go to Wireless and Networks, Wifi Settings, Manage Network Settings, tap first option and itll say 'forget or erase wifi settings' , choose Yes

5) Reboot Phone

*If camera is still not up to your standards, use Camera360 from market.

Should be all fixed up, no more reboots or crashes, and fast.

I guess its a temporary fix until Moto serves an update.

Sucks if you rely on backup to get your apps back, but Titanium Backup is a nice app to backup settings/apps

[Motorola Droid 3] Dakkaron:
Hey Guys,

I know this thread is ancient, but I couldn't find anything newer on that topic.

I'm having the random reboot issue since a while now and wondered if you could help me piece together what I've got.

I managed to find a way to provoke the reboots and that is by flooding the RAM. I opened up some random apps (doesn't seem to matter which ones, as long as they consume a lot of RAM) and it crashed rather quickly. I also managed to get a Logcat of that, but it seems pretty normal.

I attached the Logcat-Log of the last 15 sec before the crash.

But sometimes there are reboots that happen when I don't have anything intense running.

Also sometimes (often when I am using rather intense apps) the phone gets stuck with the screen turned off and it essentially acts like dead until I do a battery pull. Sometimes when it does that, it just reboots on its own after a minute or two. That could be what Cglocke might have been experiencing.

I am running an XT860 with System version 5.2.476.XT860.BellMobility.en.CA and Android Version 2.3.6

Does anybody have any ideas on that topic?

Heya, the evo 3d is a smart mobilephone, no doubt but the 3D function should, in my opinion, more be used.

Is it able to have 3d wallpaper for example if u fix your phone to landscape view or code a facebook application with a 3d chat, the messages could fly in your face or something. A 3d clock would be also cool.

Is it able to have those things or isnt the 3d technologie for smartphones enough developed yet?

Still waiting for the HTC sdk to be released. After that you will find many 3d apps. It's announced here http://htcdev.com/ , but as usual no sign of it yet...

I'm sure the APIs HTC will provide with will be compatible with the current stereoscopic screen of the evo 3d. They will also provide APIs for their pen technology with the SDK. These are explicitly for the Flyer tablet. The best part of it, they will also provide Sense APIs so developers can make use of the Sense controls......

Going to be a hot thing ...

Btw don't expect a 3d background for your regular sense desktop. As far as I can see 3d apps need to set the display in the special stereoscopic mode. But... a total 3d shell would be cool :D
