Its not that I dont understand. Ive already rooted and customized the HTC Wildfire and the HTC Incredible s (for a friend) successfully but the HTC Desire confuzes me as I think the latest HBOOT cannot be rooted yet (am I right? Ive heard this as a mere rumour). Also Ive heard that using revolutionary io is much simpler as it does not involve any isos and what I am asking now is that if I buy a rootable HTC Desire and I use revolutionary io to s-off, can I get the pci49.img (or something that has a file name like that) to flash my recovery via hboot like I have done previously on my htc wildfire and the htc incredible s

Hi everyone hope some can help I'm going on a cruise and sprint told me i will get charge international rate which they say is about 3.00 min

IS there a way to change that so I don't get that charge if I use my phone.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevesprivateaccount:
add an international plan to your phone, not sure what Sprint offers these days for that I know they used to have a plan for Central America.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austin420:
It won't do any good to add sprint international if there is no cdma coverage. The epic is deffinitly not a worldx phone.

If you don't need data, just buy a 20 dollar quad band gsm phone and get a local prepaid sim card when you get where you're going. Use your epic on wifi if its available.

2nd app release for me.. I used to play this great BBS game called legend of the red dragon (lord) and yes, showing my age on this one :)

Anyway, created an api, installed the game on my server and then created the app.

Its free too.. has 2 inapp purchases but not required for game play..(remove ads/buy extra gold)

Some details:

The premise of LORD is that a Red Dragon is wreaking havoc in a town where the player has recently arrived. Multiple players compete over a period of weeks to advance their skills and to kill the dragon. In order to achieve this goal, players must face combat to gain experience. Once they have gained enough experience, they must face their master at Turgon's Warrior Training and advance in skill level. Advancement presents stronger enemies and masters; a player must reach level 12, the final level, before challenging Turgon himself and attacking the dragon.

As a BBS game, LORD uses a text-only interface.

Fun game. Finding the options are too small. I was fighting a higher level enemy and was almost about to win when I accidentally tapped run vs fight. They are too small and close together to easily select things. In the weapons and armor stores you have buttons. Perhaps buttons for fight and run in a row, then automatic options in the next row?

Pretty cool game. I like it. Its simple and I didn't want to put it down last night.

[HTC Sensation] Blacki888:
Hi, a little story about my Sensation....

First if I make some mistakes please excuse me I am an Austrian :D

So, where i should start....

First I want a S-OFF and it works ok than I installed a the rom manager from the market and the app says i have no root acess ok so I thought it is too stubid for me and I thought it isn required for me to have a Custom Rom or root and so i want to set it to S-OF

ok I set a SuperCID no problem it has worked

after that i have used an Tutorial from a German forum...

yes and in the end of the tut were i should reboot the bootloader the Sensation bricked! Now I know my mistake i didn't haven't flashed the stock rom bevor!

so now the situation is like that:

the phone is dead no reaction and no backlight but only at one time it turned on the backlight as i put in the battery and than i pluged in the usb than the backlight turned off and i can't make the backlight on.... yet

when i plug in the usb the device is shown in the device-manager in windows..

I don't have any plan...I think it's that an it shut go to HTC-Support!

greets Blacki
[HTC Sensation] Blacki888:
no one has an idea now the same happend to another user in the german forum :confused:
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
What is shown in device manager of Windows? Please state the exact text shown. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Blacki888:
there stands "qhsusb_dload"

I've read some sites in the thread with the S-OFF/ON Tutorial and there is also a guy who has the same problems!

edit: I think it's totaly bricked I think I will bring it back to my dealer and say that it cames dead out of the box because it's only 3 Days old -.-
[HTC Sensation] jM2.me:
Briked device...

Mine is bricked too. Sending HTC with the hope that they can reflash everything and it will come back to life.
[HTC Sensation] riz157:
Return it you will probably get away with it htc will just ref lash and return to you,
[HTC Sensation] Rumball:
So you can't boot into bootloader or recovery? I.e., pull battery, put it back in, and turn on while holding power and volume down?
[HTC Sensation] Blacki888:
I've tried a hard reset and also to come into the bootloader and the battery stays out over night! No chance :(

So you guys think I have a good chance to get it fixed for free?

I don't know but it's possible that I get a new device because here in Austria HTC has an service partner so they don't fix the devices by themself so I think HTC will change the device before they must pay the company to fix them! I really don't know I hope it will get fixed for free because it's 4 days old :mad:

greetz Blacki
[HTC Sensation] alphadog32:
Try, If you can, To Run the RUU. Because what you did semi-bricked your device. Not totally bricked. Just try to turn on IF you can and Run the RUU! This same thing happened to me when i tried to install a custom font!
[HTC Sensation] Blacki888:
I've tried it when i run the RUU.exe than it says Error 170 I think it's an connection error and i've tried it to reboot etc. etc. with "adb" but it always say "waiting for device" :mad:
[HTC Sensation] mysterioustko:
With all due respect, people like you are the exact reason why we had an encrypted bootloader to begin with....to protect HTC from having to foot the bill for people who want to tinker with their phone, brick it, and then swap it for a new one as if the product was defective (leaving them to eat the cost). Quite frankly, this is ridiculous. It doesn't matter that your phone is 3 or 4 days old. If I buy a car and crash it within the first 3 or 4 days, should the dealership have to swap my car out? You knew the risks of what you were doing when you started the process (if you didn't then that's your fault for not reading), if you weren't willing to accept those risks then you shouldn't have done it. I hope you get your phone working, but if you aren't successful in fixing it, don't try to pass the buck off back to your dealer by lying about the phone coming out of the box dead. Take some responsibility for your actions. Remember it's dishonest actions like these that led to the locked bootloaders to begin with. Next time flash with care and make sure you read and understand what you're going to be doing BEFORE you start.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
I agree completely. And, this also supports my thread that was removed. People dont need to be doing all this S-OFF and S-ON business for a measly bloatware removal project. If you dont intend to flash some ROMs and KNOW what you are doing in the process, you need to go the temp root method and spend time reading and understanding. That said, Id bet money that someone here can figure out how to fix this phone, so dont go talking about ripping off HTC when you should be waiting for someone here to help you fix the problem.

Matt
[HTC Sensation] Blacki888:
is there any way to fix it :confused:
[HTC Sensation] freakzone:
There is some sense in the comments about HTC/dealer footing the bill, it's not their fault.

However we all hate insurance companies, don't we? Like the ones who declined to pay for the houses of those poor people in the states who got hit by a hurricane or the ones who insure your car and then should something happen, they want some crazy excess and raise the insurance, never mind it was hit on a parking lot when you weren't even there.

This is very dishonest and you should not do it, however it came to my mind and I decided to share it.

You can fix your phone by getting a phone insurance, then wait for say a while until you can claim from it and then dump the phone in a) the sink, b) bucket with household bleach + hot water or c) a river, wait for an hour and it's ready :D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] Darnell_Chat_TN:
What does a device insurance company such as Asurion or SquareTrade have to do with the actions of some home/car insurance company? NONE. This is like saying, since someone in your family did something dishonest, I get to rob your house, because you're all relatives.

It's insurance fraud that causes all of us to pay those higher rates and have to endure so many hassles.

If it's wrong to send it to HTC claiming it came out the box broken, then it's wrong to commit insurance fraud too. This is not a case where the device had a hardware defect that had nothing to do with the bootloader being unlocked. So there's no gray area on this one.

I can't say I've been honest every day of my life, but let's not act like one form of fraud is more noble than another form of fraud.

Let's find a legit way to resolve this issue. And the legit way is, for the device owner to take it to a repair shop and be honest about what happend and pay for help, or send it to HTC and be honest about what happened and pay for service. Whatever fee will be less than the price paid for the Sensation by far I'm sure.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Im willing to bet that the fee to repair it from HTC will be less than the insurance + deductible from an insurance company.

Matt
[HTC Sensation] freakzone:
It was intended to be a joke, thus the smiley, sorry guys :)

I am generally against crime, including insurance fraud
[HTC Sensation] Darnell_Chat_TN:
I agree, it probably will be cheaper to just be straight up with HTC and pay their fee.

Because i am not allowed to post in the development forum i had to post my problem here...

I had the "HD2O© v1.14 WP7 BUILD 7.0.7392.0 NODO" ROM and now want to flash "blackSideSeven v2.05.7592".

I execute the "Task29" Utility. And made a HardReset.

Then i installed the Mango ROM like i did it by HD2O before in the MAGLDR.

But now the problem is that only the HTC Screen appears and nothing else.

I also installed it a second time, same problem...

What can i do?

EDIT: Now i flashed HD2O again and it works perfect.

So, only blacksideseven not works...

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] pharmeceutikle:
I do find it kind of odd that I'm unable to flash mango again. It all started when I decided to flash blacksideseven 2.06 rom from elfinlazz mango, which has been working. I've always been able to flash WP7 without ever having to do task29. Well, in the process of flashing blacksideseven I had a problem as it was throwing an error everytime it reached part.004. I tried it two more times with the same result. Then I moved to a different port and successful on the second attempt. It never worked as either it was caught in a boot cycle or it was just freeze at the HTC screen. I decided to do task29 and reflash magldr and the rom again but still can not get in. I tried elfinlazz rom again and then Yuki's but still no luck. Changed SD cards and nada! So as of right now I'm currently starting everything back from scratch by doing task29 and then magldr and stock 6.5 and then back to mango to see what happens.

P.S. As I'm writing 6.5 started up with no problems! Need to charge the phone because I've been at this since last night. I hate this!

Edit: It worked. But, you know what? I think I'm staying with 6.5 now. I mean WP7 was fun for me for 6 months that it was on my phone from dft original all the way up to mango beta 1. I found myself using my android side more often than WP7 every since Mango because I needed something reliable as WP7 mango had issues due to its beta stage. Not even 20 minutes passed before my WP7 got a no sim error! I thought I needed to restart it anyways and on the subsequent boot up it rebooted 5 times before it got stuck on the htc screen for 35 minutes. Another manual reboot worked but 20 minutes later it just went to no sim error again, so I decided i'm not gonna take this headache anymore! Elfinlazz rom previous was good but there were certain things I needed like data that didn't work 100% of the time. Again, it was fun. I believe I may go back some day. Hopefully somebody will work out the SD card issue because I believe this is the main problem I have with WP7. Maybe some workaround in the future. Good luck guys!

Wifi turns off while locked

Bipe posted in this thread on 6th Aug:

So I took these steps: rebooted into recovery, cleared cache and Dalvik cache, flashed nightly build 152, flashed the ManU kernel, flashed gapps, rebooted, went into Wifi Settings, clicked Menu, clicked Advanced, went into Wifi Sleep Policy, changed to Never, clicked Menu, clicked Save.

Now it seems that the "Never" setting does indeed take effect once the screen goes off.

As a newbie I am unable to say if it's the nightly build 152 or the ManU kernel that has fixed this issue. Perhaps someone better qualified than I could tell me that. Nonetheless, I'm once again a happy HTC Desire owner.

Here are the links I used to download nightly build 152 and the ManU kernel:

when I first got my phone it imported contacts from all over the place, including many places that I didn't want it to. It's a nice feature but I only want to use the contacts in my google account. Initially the phone found contacts on my sim, and t-mobile account. I understand in the contacts app you can go in to view and turn off the other sources, but my problem is on the phone app. When you open the phone app the first screen lists your contacts with your recent calls at the top. In that list my sim contacts are still showing. When I use the "Smart dial" feature it searches all the previous contact sources. Is there a way I can wipe all contact from my phone and just start over with my google contacts?
