If you're rooted, try going into the system app and renaming the htclockscreen.apk. I wouldn't delete it, just rename it to something like htclockscreen.apk.bak or something. In theory it should work and will get rid of the lockscreen all together. :D You can find it under system>apps>htclockscreen.apk
[HTC EVO 3D] ijrod21i:
Thanks for the response. I'm currently using a senseless rom which means that I'm using the vanilla gingerbread lock screen. However, I have made the mistake of uninstalling all of my lock screens before and I was just left with a blank screen when I would power up my phone from sleep. Do you think that renaming it will have a different effect?
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
I'm not sure. I haven't used the gingerbread lockscreen in a while :/
[HTC EVO 3D] zaner123:
Use tasker. There is an option under display to disable the lockscreen.

I have a profile set for "driving" that disables the lockscreen among other things.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Oops nevermind.
[HTC EVO 3D] ijrod21i:
This produces the same results as all of my previous attempts :mad: . Regardless of keyboard, the keyboard becomes less responsive and It takes much harder presses to get a letter to register.

This is the first app that I tried and the app that I used to use on every reboot with my Evo 4G. Doesn't work as well on my 3d however.. I'm surprised that I'm the only one with this problem. I've tried using no lock on a fresh and stock rom with no custom apps installed ,and that didn't work either. Maybe I just touch too lightly when typing? Although I notice no problems when my lock screen is enabled. :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Lol dog44 that's the same thing I said until I read the op post again.....oops.

Try using "touch screen booster", it seems to help some people with typing issues.
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
I got to thinking. Go ahead and look for the lockscreen apk in the system files and rename it. If it does give you the blackscreen you could just rename it again and it will put it right back.
[HTC EVO 3D] SugarCoatedAngel:
Hey I can't find LOCKSCREEN in system files. Any idea where it would be?

Ok, I tried this and it worked, but now I get the Android lockscreen? The one where you slide the lock icon to the side to unlock. How do I get rid of that one?

Hey guys

Rooted Evo running Hateslinger.

Recently replaced my speaker by myself. Install was pretty easy, but when I was finishing up I noticed i dont have volume control going up (high Volume). Lowering works fine. I do have the $7.00 month insurance, but will Sprint give me a hard time to replace the volume rocker? It's not a software issue only a hardware problem, but since I did open it up I don't think there is a way they can tell is there? Will they fix it? Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunsparc:
Volume rocker isn't a replaceable part, unless you mean just the plastic button itself.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black SER:
well the rocker/volume button is there, but I can't feel or hear it click when I try to higher the volume. Basically are they going to sweat the root?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blu3poptart:
If it is a noticeably different ROM they might. Just to be on the safe side, do what I did. Flash the stock gingerbread ROM, restore a few apps and make it seem like you have been using that ROM. Then just take out your micro SD card so they don't go snooping through your stuff

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black SER:
That's the problem. In order for me to flash any rom I need to be able to acess the vol up while in recovery. I'll try and report back and let you guys know the outcome.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blu3poptart:
If I remember correctly, when you reach the bottom of the menu and press volume down again, doesn't it go to the top of the menu? I'm not certain but I think I remember doing this

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
There is a chance they deny the repair as you have opened the case. There is a black screw cover on the left hand screw next to the battery. This cover must be removed to unscrew the phone to take it apart. If you didn't carefully take off and replace this little sticker, Sprint could claim physical damage and make you do an insurance claim, or refuse to fix it all together.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haphim:
On 1.83, a Contact will show as many phone numbers as I entered for it.

But on 2.3.4, if one of the numbers is non-standard, like "*82-1-800-555-1212" (entered without the hyphens, of course), it doesn't show up under that contact. It still stores it, but I can't use it, can't dial with it, etc...

Is there any way around this bug?

Edit: It shows up okay, if it's the *only* number for that Contact. But if there's another one (formatted normally), the non standard one doesn't show.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haphim:
Can anyone duplicate this issue?

Here's how you can test it...

Try making a contact like this (obviously, don't enter the hyphens):

Phone1: 1-800-555-1212

Phone2: *82-1-800-555-1212

Now, try and look at that contact. You'll see the number in standard format, but not the other.

And for what it's worth, my contacts are created as part of the Google group, not the Motorola.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyPhreak:
I can confirm that a phone number like your second example isn't displayed in the list of numbers for the contact, though it's still present if you select Edit.

Hmm...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyPhreak:
OP, are you using a custom ROM or stock? I'm using piCRUST v0.6 and under Contacts > Display Options > Choose contacts to display > Google, I have three checkboxes, and one of them is not labeled. Also, when I first checked this area, none of these checkboxes were checked, but all my contacts were still being displayed - except for the test contact I created to investigate the bug you reported.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haphim:
Thank you for confirming that I'm not the only one seeing this!

To answer your question, it's a Fruitcake build.

And while this is definitely a bug that did not exist in 1.83, I just saw a Motorola rep point out that there is an acceptably easy workaround, which is to add a pause (comma) between the star code and the phone number (e.g. *82,1-800-555-1212)

I can confirm that that works. Whew!

Thanks again for confirming this for me.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyPhreak:
Anyway, back to your question... try inserting a Pause or Wait after the initial (carrier and country code) digits in your second example. This will make the number appear in the list of numbers for the contact. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyPhreak:
Yes, you beat me to it. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyPhreak:
Here's another oddity with Contacts - actually, definitely a bug: numbers that include * or # (e.g. USSD numbers for getting billing info, etc.) will have those characters stripped out when you do an Import from a previously Exported .vcf file. This bug is present in both Froyo and Gingerbread (stock) and has nothing to do with custom ROMs.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haphim:
Fortunately, I don't need to work with vcf's - but that's really good to know. Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haphim:
Here's a problem - adding the comma as a pause lets the number show up - but the phone won't dial it properly. It simply stops at the comma, so if we are dialing *82,1-800-555-1212, the phone will only dial *82.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLT24:
I understand due to the lack of driver source code that Hardware acceleration will not work on our tabs past 2.2(froyo). But I am currently running Calkulin+Clemsyn 1.5ghz Froyo Combo VERSION 6: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1024120 and I have tried at least 20 diff videos and diff formats using hardware codec and not one video played. I know you can use apps to play videos with software codecs but when you start going into 720p and 1080p videos the video slows way down. So is there something I'm missing? I thought the tegra 2 could handle 1080p decoding? If there is another ROM that can do HD decoding better please let me know cause video playback is what I use my tab the most for. Thanks for any help and sorry for the wall of txt lol.

Will punch the thanks button!!!

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Edit: Ok after several trial and error's on trying pershoot's kernel I decided to go ahead and re-encode my videos using Freemake video converter. It works and the quality actually looks better! This program is free and it has Android presets for our tablets so that you get the best video quality at our resolution! Now I would still like to use pershoot's kernal but I can't find any froyo roms that has his/her's kernel already packed into the rom. If some one could please help me with finding one that would be super! Thanks soooo much!!! :)

Thanks I'll try that! :) also what player are you using? If its a stock player, could you post the apk? Thanks so much! :)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schettj:
Why not re-encode to a lower resolution? The GTab can't even play 720p without resizing, which is what's killing you.

1024x600 - that's the screen size. Re-encode your HD video to be under that. It will play like butter. And be considerably smaller.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLT24:
Why would they say you can play up to 1080p video, if you really cant? lol Also does it matter if its 600x1024 or 1024x600? The reason I ask is because I see it different all the time lol And one more thing, What program would you suggest to re-encode? Thanks so much for everything! :)

Edit: Ok so I tried pershoot's newest kernel out and I love it! I get some video acceleration back and it also fixed some sound issues I was having. The only problem is that after I install the kernel it boot's up fine but if I reboot, it gets stuck in a boot loop. If I do a factory reset it will boot back up again. but if I reboot then it gets stuck in a boot loop again. So with that said I don't think this kernel is meant for this ROM. What is the best froyo ROM that includes pershoot's kernel? Thanks for everything!!!! :)
[HTC Sensation] vinvam:
Hello all,

I've lurked for a while, but finally got around to making an account and posting! :cool:

Anyways, I was wondering it it's possible to convert a T-Mobile Sensation to work with AT&T's 850/1900 3G network. Yes, I know they use different bands yada yada, however, many websites list the device has having quad-band UMTS.

So far users that have unlocked and used the T-Mobile Sensation on AT&T have confirmed that it does not work with AT&T 3G.

Considering the AT&T/T-Mobile merger, it is possible that HTC threw in a radio capable of AT&T's 3G bands and had them disabled. This would give them the option to enable those bands if the merger goes through. This would also lend credence to all the spec sheets out there that claim the device is quad-band UMTS.

If the hardware is there then it's simply a matter of using software that enables the 850/1900 bands.

Perhaps one could flash a radio from the Bell Sensation on the T-Mobile Sensation? Radio might not be the right term, but maybe there's a file or files (modem? baseband?) that can be sourced from the Bell Sensation and flashed to the T-Mobile Sensation?

Perhaps there's a service menu like there was for certain versions of the Galaxy S?

Anybody have any ideas or experience with this?
[HTC Sensation] kirdroid:
Why not just buy the bell sensation? I'm using it on ATT 3g with no issues.
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
kindroid hit the nail on the head.

NO you need one with the proper bands.

sell yours on ebay and buy the proper one with the money you got from yours, or even try to trade someone there or in the marketplace here
[HTC Sensation] vinvam:
I know, but cost is an issue as I'm a full time student. I looked into buying a z710a from Canada, but they're really expensive - $700 USD on Negri right now... I can get a T-Mobile Sensation 4G for around $350.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eurosport360:
Hey guys,

I need some help with this CWM. It is my first time using this phone.

Ok, I will go through all the things I have down so far.

I got the phone yesterday from AT&T (America) and immediately updated OTA to official firmware 4.5.91.

I then downloaded pudding for AT&T/android 2.3.4, downloaded the latest windows 7 drivers, and the latest RSD lite 5.3.1.

I used RSD to flash pudding onto the phone, but did not enable USB debugging, or the other option to allow non-android/certified installations (located at setting, applications...I think)

That resulted in a no OS found, error 1x000 on the phone, and an error in RSD. RSD said something around the likes of: error - could not switch...something the phone then gave me a list of options and went into fastboot protocol mode.

I thought to myself: "darn, I bricked my phone", but I saw that it went into fastboot mode. I did the fastboot cmd's from my computer to unlock the phone, which seemed successful (unlock on the top left corner), but after I did fastboot reboot, the phone was stuck in the dual core screen, with unlock on top left still.

I had to pull out the battery, but the phone then booted up normally.

Thinking that everything is now fine, and still forgetting to enable those setting in the phone, I booted the phone in fastboot protocol mode and installed ROMracers CWM.

However, I didn't use the second command to delete CWM before installing romracers. It installed fine though, from what I saw.

So I then try to go into the CWM by holding the power button and volume down, then scrolling down to recovery and hitting volume up.

Then the android guy and the triangle warning sign shows up. Great.

What did I do wrong? Everything seems to have worked so far. I am using the latest versions of everything.

I am following a tutorial video on youtube (two weeks old), and I am at work right now so I have not gotten to the part where he gets the same error on his demonstration phone; however, i saw that the guy downloaded a file explorer that can do a specific thing that other programs cannot, but it costs money. I didn't see any more.

What should I do?
