[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mehta916:
Just got another MT4G via a warranty exchange. Phone inst rooted, I got it updated to gingerbread 2.3.4

Basically I'm trying to link my FB Contacts with my phone book contacts. Ive gone under settings/accounts & sync/ add account and have added both Facebook and Facebook for myTouch and have them synced....but no luck. Ive also gone manually to a contact: click on their name, hit the link bar on the top right, tap on Facebook for myTouch, select the contact; but all that does is take me back to the second screen after i click the link bar.

Does gingerbread not support fb contact syncing?

Have you tried ticking usb debugging and connecting in mass storage mode?

Do you have Clockworkmod recovery?

If so boot into it,

plug your phone into the computer

go to the mounts menu

hit mount usb storage

The internal storage should mount as mass storage.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] mattlezeay:
So I just got an Infuse this week... I've been through 4 so far because I kept having them do random stuff... first two cooked to the point of having to pull the battery because it would just freeze. Third one due to reboots about every 15 minutes... So far I really like the phone but I'm noticing a trend.

On the last phone I just got, I added my 4 Google accounts (three personal, one work Google Apps) and set only two to sync calendars. Well I tried to pull up the calendar and it freezes. This was happening on the first two but I didn't think anything of it. Here is the question, have other people had problems with the Calendar app and more than 3 or 4 google accounts?

I'm noticing a trend that 4 accounts or more just kills the app - regardless of how many calendars you have set to sync. The people at the store couldn't believe it but I showed them as a fresh phone went into a blank screen in the calendar app and had to be rebooted to get it working.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mattlezeay:
So just to follow up on this. Found what the bug was after several days of trying something, resetting everything, going at it again! The Infuse has a bug that if you have multiple Gmail accounts and while adding them you turn off the calendar sync, it causes issues. The root of the issue is that "All Calendars" does not automatically get turned off when you deselect a calendar for sync. So if you don't want every calendar synced then do this:

1. Leave the calendar selected for sync when adding the account.

2. Go to Calendar app -> Menu button ->Settings

3. Calendars -> Uncheck "All Calendars" (This is the part that was getting me, this stays selected even when you don't sync all the calendars so its going for data that isn't available)

4. Select the calendars you want, then exit the calendar app.

5. Go back to the main Accounts and Sync and unselect sync for the calendars you don't want.

Just leaving this for anyone else that has this problem in the future - I lost hours of my life at the AT&T store and playing with this to get it working... hopefully someone else can just read this instead.
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
So I've tried a couple new roms... after the second one which I can't recall the name of it, I've run into my issue.

When I plug in the phone via USB-comptuer, I no longer get the prompt to "charge only, usb, tether, etc.." It just starts to charge right away, and I cannot access my micro SD card at all.

Is there some sort of fix for this I can do in terminal? I remember having a similar issue with my OG EVO, and I thought it was a fix in terminal or in adb.... But when connected to the computer adb doesn't even recognize the device.

Thanks ahead of time!!! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] JoshuaAlba:
Settings, About phone, software info, more. That should tell you what ROM you're using. Check the ROM's thread and search if anyone else has the same problem and if there's a fix. Doubt that's the issue, maybe you just have to restart your phone. I had that problem sometimes when I plug and unplug my usb wire alot.
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
I have a feeling that it's not the ROM that I'm currently on though that caused the issue. It's one along the way, which I do not recall, that caused the issue.

After a million reboots, fixing permissions, flashing back to stock to try to enable S-ON and start all over or bring it in for repair..... I can't figure it out.

EDIT:: Don't know if it helps to know or anything, but I can't get FASTBOOT USB when trying to write secureflag. All I get is FASTBOOT AC.

Anyone else have a fix for this?
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
Why don't you just uncheck mobile view in browser settings?

either huge troll or didnt read OP's post.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Change the UI string to desktop

Lol just kidding, but I heard the about:debug reset back to default after you close the browser. So that may be your problem. You could also try dolphin browser, it has a desktop option .
[HTC EVO 3D] travisr528:
I really don't want to change browser, but I might have too.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tilde88:
make sure you are not on the page you are trying to view.

Go to applications, find browser... force stop. Clear cache.open browser, do about debug. go to settings... clear cache and browsing history. have UI to desktop. mobile off (i know you did just sayin).

press back button.. go to the website... BUT YOU NEED TO ENTER the www. but for example....

www.youtube.com instead of youtube.com.
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
I dont understand i thought unchecking the mobile view does this already. It seems to do it on my phone. I cant find any website now that wont show as full web.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tilde88:
some sites break some times for some people. i know it isn't an exact science.... but all i did was uncheck mobile view, and most work fine... sometimes that isn't enough...
[HTC EVO 3D] travisr528:
That worked! Google still shows as mobile, but so far other websites seem to be working.
[HTC EVO 3D] beastmods:
type about:debug in stock brower in address bar...hit enter...

that should work....try toggling from android to desktop....i use it all the time with no issues

not sure why it is not working for you
[HTC EVO 3D] Pyxl3D:
I have found on the stock browser if a page is consistently loading as a mobile version despite the mobile view check box being disabled that I can just type the full name of the web page preceded by http:// and it will bring up the normal PC version of the page up.

Example..

Don't just type www.whateverwebpage.com or whateverwebpage.com, type http://www.whateverwebpage.com and you will get the "PC" version.

Hey guys,

I was testing out nvflash and ran the download.bat on my new transformer and now it's stuck in APX mode.

I see when running nvflash, it says:

Now the screen is black and keeps going into apx.

Before running it I had rooted 3.1 and had just updated to 3.2 which worked fine.

Any help please?

Thanks

Any suggestions on getting it back? I have the whole weekend to try now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty5689:
Try redownloading the nvflash files? Maybe the checksum failed.

It seems boot.img was not found, but your download.sh script tries to install it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilstevie:
it is because you have run nvflash in create mode which partitions and installs the android system, but you don't have an android systems images in the same folder as nvflash and the batch file.

download prime 1.6 nvflash edition, put it in the same folder as these files, and run that script again
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
Thanks! This made a lot of sense after I read it. I downloaded the nvflash edition and ran the download.bat. It found the missing files and copied them to the transformer successfully. I then rebooted the device and was back in action with prime. Appreciate it!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Just be glad you didn't put your device in a permanent apx bootloop. You're just missing the android system image.

I've had to deal with a few devices that was somehow put in permanent apx bootloop by their owners. Before I actually got my hands on these devices, I honestly thought they didn't really exist and that it was just users' ignorance. But damn, these devices with permanent apx bootloop are hard to unbrick.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
Definitely glad. The funny thing is I ran the nvflash because I wanted to see if it worked for getting a clean install, little did I know I would make it cleaner than I wanted :x. I had an idea that I needed to supply the files, but really had no idea where to get them. Luckily lilstevie pointed me in the right direction. I've since updated to Prime HC3.2 and loving it so far.

Glad it's back and working now though!

I was trying to watch a youtube video. In the youtube app, it just shows "buffering... " and does not play. Using the browser, only the circular loading screen showed. Note that everything else loads like the comments, views etc.

However, i can view embedded youtube videos. Now im confused. I think it has to do with the youtube mobile player since the regular player for pc was able to play the embedded video.

Do you know any fix? Thanks.

Hi,

There is a gadget called HTC DG H100 Media Link DLNA Adaptor that connects to any HDMI equipped TV.

The gadget receives media from your phone (or other DLNA capable device) over wifi and streams the content to TV. Worth checking compatibility though, there are concerns over this issue in Engadget's review.

Seems to do exactly what you need, however there is a catch - this thing is pretty expensive, something around 100 EUR.

I use the OTA synch for accessing my corporate email / contacts / calender.

I am using HTC Sense and the email client that comes with it.

However, if I want to send an email to corporate contact from within the HTC sense email client, it does not show that or search for that contact unless it is in my personal contacts.

I tried the regular email client that comes with Android (I flashed another ROM without Sense) and that seems to work in searching the corporate contacts, but I am trying to see if I can it make work on the HTC Sense email client.

Why we couldn't root 2.3.4 directly? Anybody knows?
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
It is possible, but it's quite some work even though it's easy.

Simple guide, taken from dangpzanco:

1. Boot the phone in CWM. Make sure the device is connected to your PC

2. Extract CG39.smg from the SBF and put it on your SDCARD's root.

3. ADB commands:

- $ su

- # dd if=/sdcard/CG39.smg of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p21

- # exit

- $ exit

4. Flash SU 3.0 Beta 3 update.zip; http://androidsu.com/3-0-beta/

- This file must be on your SDCard as well

5. Reboot in Bootloader mode

6. Flash Fixed-SBF from MS2Ginger Thread

7. Reboot

You can consider doing a data wipe now from Motorola Recovery, before booting. But there you have it. I will expand this guide later.

Search the forums to find out how to extract CG39.smg from the SBF.

hi,

is there any ways to rectify my problem?

i have flashed arhd 1.1.8 rom with stock kernel and recommended radio.

But when i use currentwidget to monitor my battery consumption, i notice that it draws 400-500mA when i'm using, and 200-300 when idle.

is my battery miscalibrated? or is it because of faulty battery?

TIA
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben_pyett:
First things first I'd recommend that you fully charge and then recalibrate your battery, assuming that you're root there is an application called battery calibration

personally I'd also suggest that you drop current widget and start using battery monitor widget, I find it's more accurate and a better product.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben_pyett:
The way to test phone battery consumption its to turn off wi fi, bt and gps, auto sync to off.

Leave it for a few hours with screen off and then review the log.

The screen will be the biggest consumer of battery so don't use auto brightness, you'll only need about one quarter brightness setting, only in direct sun light is a higher setting required.

When you use the phone expect the battery to fall.

You should really take the phone through a couple of full discharge and then full charge cycles before judging.
