[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonHoneycutt:
Hey all.... I was referred here by a friend and he told me I would have some luck, So I am trying it out...

I have an EVO obviously, and I have it rooted.

Here are the specs.

EVO4G

SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-2.10.0001

MICROP-041f

TOUCH PAEL-ATMELC03_16ac

RADIO-2.15.00.05.02

------------------

I am having a few problems... one being that my texts will arrive really late... 15 to 20 minutes late... I do not understand why. I have updated profile, PRL, and all that good stuff. I am running MikG v2.45 - Re-Engineered GB Sense 2.1 + 3.0, with the kernel that it comes with. I really don't have any other information. I know I am in good service, no roaming, nothing. Still just crapping out on me....

Also, I was wondering if anyone recommends any other roms that are sense based that are smooth and stable. I like sense based roms because it seems like when i update my profile and prl it helps on the texting a little but they are still arriving really late....

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanaaron:
So is it rooted?

sent from 2.3.3 rooted evo ;D ™
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonHoneycutt:
yes..... it is in fact rooted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonHoneycutt:
also another question....

I am wondering whether is would be beneficial to unroot and just do the normal updates and stuff or would the OTA radio updates and OTA system updates to 2.3 even make a difference from the updates I installed while rooted?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhxkinMassacre:
Installing the updates while rooted won't be different from unrooted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhxkinMassacre:
Also try synergy rls1 i am running it and its very smooth. But there is 2 versions. There is godmode and nongodmode. I run non gmode. Then after you flash that if you choose to i would download the freedom universal kernel. Once downloaded go to recovery wipe cache and dalvik and then flash the kernel. Then once booted up everything should work since that's my setup and i love it haha. Also i recommend downloading set CPU. You can get it free on xda just google "xda set CPU" and overclock to 1152 if you can go that high and its even better

Does anyone know what the recent Samsung firmware update does?

Per the About screen:

OS version: 7.10.7720.68

Firmware revision number: 2103.11.8.1

Hardware revision number: 3.1.0.7

Radio software version: 2103.11.8.1

Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.3

Bootloader version: 5.8.0.2

Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0

The update did not specify any bug fixes so I'm just curious what it does.
[Focus General] dan-htc-touch:
uh, os version.... that would be mango no?
[Focus General] Vico100:
Is this from AT&T?
[Focus General] michael_chea7:
where/when did you get the firmware update? I havent seen any update notifications on my device yet. i updated my focus to Mango RTM as soon as it was available, my firmware still shows as 2103.11.3.3 also my radio software and Bootloader are different than yours also, Radio is 2103.11.3.3 and Bootloader is 5.3.1.6
[Focus General] minori_aoi:
Is yours 1.3 or 1.4 ???
[Focus General] ld0891:
Rogers already got 2124.10.12.2
[Focus General] adminlt:
When did you got update notice on Rogers?

I am using NoDo Focus on Rogers and it says No updates available...
[Focus General] michael_chea7:
mine is a 1.3
[Focus General] vwforums:
I'm still stuck on 2103.10.10 and all the force updates that I've tried have failed. Any ideas?
[Focus General] joerao:
Ditto on the 2103.10.10.1. I'm still stuck on this (rev 1.3 phone) and haven't been offerened any other updates. Is it possible to force a firmware upgrade as it seems like this firmware is also the reason that I am unable to InterOP Unlock.
[Focus General] flipkicks:
Try this. I forced mine when mango came out officially. I thought I bookmarked the page but this is all I have saved. I know it's somewhere here on the forums.

[Focus General] superp32:
I got the Samsung update on "mango day" I was already on the leaked RTM 7720 so I was stoked to be getting any update what so ever . Turns out that update is firmware and it brought me up to date and back on the update track . What it does is going to depend on what version you are running but if you have mango I can tell you what it did for me. First thing I noticed was the touch to focus on the camera it would focus b4 on touch but not in specific spots of the screen , The compass now works , diagnostics , hmmm I a sure there are alot more but just a few I noticed rite away.

I want to buy a new smartphone. What is the best?
[Desire HD General] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
Is there other options because those phones are both nice but there are newer ones with dual core about the same price as those phones. If you want versatility then the HD2 is the phone for you. if you want pure android from the door and dont really want the hassle of messing around then I would go withe the Desire HD. I have the HD2 and i love the phone alot of development for it but it is getting old. I would go with the Desire HD.
[Desire HD General] whiperhack:
czarsuperstar......... Define versatility. :rolleyes:
[Desire HD General] Maedhros:
Uh...

Desire HD has newer CPU and GPU.

So... Desire HD/
[Desire HD General] rockztahh:
How about Sensation?;)
[Desire HD General] 0semaj0:
Grip of death issue on the Sensation...and the nail to the coffin for the Sensation is that other brands do offer better per dollar value...such as SGSII. lol.

Between HD2 and Desire HD, go with the Desire HD, its a far newer phone with improved CPU and GPU as well as other small tweaks such as the camera, most importantly, a far more superior operating system...HD2 had a lot of issues with the digitaliser...
[Desire HD General] hero000:
If I were you I would not consider hanging with these phones. Though very popular phone but...I would put 10% more on the top of my budget n bought the new dual core phones like sensation or GS2.

I got DHD now. I like it but there are couple of other phones more powerful, better GPU and better battery life.

Decision is yours: If no last options I would prefer DHD far better specs than HD2
[Desire HD General] l0w:
My wife has Samsung Galaxy. Everything just seems to 'work' on that phone compared to my HD. Dont be blinkered into choosing an HTC phone based on past glories.

Sent from my HTC HD so may contain typos, bugs and, if the battery lasts, pearls of....(battery 0%)
[Desire HD General] lukesan:
I'm also tempted to buy a S2 galaxy.

People b*tch about it being plastic but you have very good plastic and bad metal if you know what I mean, as long as the chassis is sturdy.

Also rf-signals (gps, wifi, bt and gsm (still a phone)) pass through plastic more easily than metal.

For one I would not buy a HD2 anymore if it would be your only phone.

Like someone said, hardware issues. Head down to the hd2 forum and you will see loads of people complaining about bad blocks, digitizers etc. things that are not really replacable etc.

As being a 'toy' phone then yes the HD2 is fantastic.

I now have the DHD but I'm still not sure that I like it. I also have a ZTE blade (yes the cheap thing) and it beats the DHD in wifi, gps and loudspeaker (as being able to hear something not like a tweeter on the DHD)

The DHD on the other hand is faster, has a better camera (still seeing pink spot, check a grey wall and bump up colour and contrast) and larger screen (did I say that the ZTE screen was brighter also?).

So it all depends on your needs.

I would love to testdrive a couple of phones and compare them for a week.
[Desire HD General] hero000:
There are 2 things about SGS2 which wins over Sensation. It's Super Amoled bright screen and it's light weight!

Downside: very cheap looking phone! seems like bought from a $2.00 shop lol

Sensation: It's got sense 3.0 because it make sense! a bit lagging If I'm not wrong my DHD runs smoother than HTC sensation. > May be they have fixed with the new update!

NOT to overwhelm OP with these ideologies . Ya should have these things in mind before buying your SMART PHONE. Or else you'll end up regrating. Now we say HD2 is old 2,3 months later you'll say to Sensation or GS2. It's all Money and Marketing but on top of that you should consider your own needs and requirements from a smart phone.
[Desire HD General] 0semaj0:
hmmm...HTC just isnt what they used to be...disappointed in their Evo 3D...and the Sensation...dont get me wrong...Ive had 5 HTCs in the past...absolute fanatic...but yea...

Diamond II > Nexus One > Wildfire > Desire > Desire HD
[Desire HD General] matthew33:
I have been a member of the HD2 section of this forum for over a year, and until last week i owned 2 x HD2 phones.

Trust me.....get a HTC Desire!!!!

Owned my desire for a week and it's BRILLIANT compared to HD2 problems.

matt
[Desire HD General] wakers:
As few have mentioned the DHD has better hardware spec than the HD2.

What nobody has mentioned though is the screen is way better on the DHD especially in terms of accuracy of typing, thats what i've found anyway...

If they are your only 2 choices defo the DHD in my experience...
[Desire HD General] zhengechou:
DHD is better than HD2,they are uncomparable,but why not another newer and more powerful dual core phone? The two of them are out of fashion now.
[Desire HD General] clouds5:
I think the Desire HD is still a very good phone compared to the newer generation phones (SGS2, Sensation) and a viable option. It depends on what features you need though.

Why?

-Dualcore does not bring any real advantages right now. When apps really profit from it there will be better phones. + it usually uses more power than singlecore.

So the speed improvement compared to a DHD is very minimal and probably not noticable in general.

-DHD has one of the best custom rom support. From different Sense 2.1 and Sense 3 roms to Cyanogen or MIUI variations you can flash what you want on your DHD. Custom roms on the newer phones are still in early developement.

-Software from both SGS2 and Sensation isnt quite there imho. Touchwiz is well... touchwiz, and SGS2 has some problems with 3d games and overheats sometimes. And somehow the sensation just doesnt feel that smooth (i had the feeling sense 3 on my DHD runs smoother^^) we can only hope updates will correct that.

I could go on. But in my opinion upgrading from a DHD to one of the newer phones is something you should only do if you have more than enough money on your bank.

But you're in another situation. You need a new phone and if money is an issue i think the DHD is still a good option (forget the HD2 its just too old). Its not without flaws but neither are the newer phones.

I will stick to my DHD for at least another year. But if I would be in your spot(and money wasnt an issue) right now id probably go for the Sensation with a good custom rom (they should be out soon with the bootloader unlocked now).

The SGS2 is very good, but there are some things that are dealbrakers for me. For example the screen. Everyones praising it to heaven but i think its just awefull to look at^^ Colors are way off. And stuff mentioned above..
[Desire HD General] Paulplex:
Ah, I'm not alone in thinking that then? Full brightness, looks fine - anything less and the SGSII has a green tint to it. Yuck.

I've got a Desire HD; works very well for me - all the better for rooting and putting on Cyanogen instead of Sense!
[Desire HD General] Simpody:
HD2 is pretty old now. I would say of the 2 dhd
[Desire HD General] alirez_sos:
100% Desire HD

maybe 200%
[Desire HD General] audiavant:
I had HD2 first and went from HD2 to Desire HD.

Desire HD is a much better phone and double so fast than HD2.

Desire HD or Sensation is today options :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eowyn:
I have searched, Googled for the Samsung Media Hub for Galaxy Tab 7 T-Mobile lot of times but to no avail. So my last resort is to ask for help if someone has it and if they could share it. Thank you in advance!

[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
Just discovered a very annoying bug with this new OTA update. I've had it for about an hour, and everything else has been good except for this.

With the lockscreen, my first shortcut icon (Phone Dialer) suddenly disappeared. I have no clue how to get it back.

When I try to re-assign it as a shortcut, it doesn't appear on the shortcuts menu.

I'm 1,000% positive that I did not erase the dialer icon in the lockscreen edit menu.

Anyways, this is just a heads up for some of you TmoUSA people who just got the OTA update.

And if anybody has any suggestions on how to prevent/fix this, or get back my phone dialer shortcut, I'd really appreciate it.
[HTC Sensation] gottabekin:
I got the phone dialer and it did not disappear from lock screen after the update.
[HTC Sensation] Freshly_Snipes:
I think this may be an isolated incident. But wow none the less. I would suggest a wipe brother.
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
Wow, that sucks to know that it's just me :(

Not that I would wish this problem on any of you, just kinda bothers me because I factory-resetted just yesterday :(
[HTC Sensation] ProximaC:
It's not just you. I still have the phone on my first button of the lock screen, but if I go to edit the lockscreen buttons, the first one is now blank, and Phone is not an option in the list of available apps to assign.

As long as I don't change it, it's good...
[HTC Sensation] ragnarokx:
The EVO 3D had this problem with 2.3.3 at launch. HTC sent out a minor update to fix. Expect a minor update in the near future.
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
I wonder if I should just install a phone dialer app from the market and see if that can be a workaround.

What do you guys think?
[HTC Sensation] Romanbb:
I had this issue, and I made a workaround, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1205384

new tmo update

has anyone did the tmo update with s-off yet? dit it work? is it worth my while
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
Wrong thread to ask that, bro. Take it to the Q&A forum ;)
[HTC Sensation] ProximaC:
If you save any changes from that screen you'll lose the icon.

Really, yikes. I think I like the 4 I have there now so I'll leave it alone for the time being.

1st - Web

2nd - Phone

3rd - Gmail

4th - Messages
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
With all these issues I'm seeing I think ima just stick to leedroid or stock rooted. I'm playing around on my myTouch before I sale it.
[HTC Sensation] knagl:
I just got the update and yes, while I still have the Phone icon on my lockscreen, if I go to the Settings page for the screen the position is blank and "Phone" isn't an option in the list of programs to launch.

It looks like birgertime's work-around may be what you need, until HTC (hopefully) releases a fix for this.

In the mean time, I'm not going to change my lockscreen icons (not that I frequently do anyway).
[HTC Sensation] kalel8145:
Not just you. Same thing happened to me. Just got the update today.
[HTC Sensation] teshxx:
i had the same issue, the phone (dialer) missing from menu and lock screen. I downloaded the shortcut from the link above and it worked. Thanx for the shortcut.
[HTC Sensation] ridingonfumes:
I just got the update and I don't have any issues with my lock screen. maybe try to change in your lock screen htc gives us like 6 to choose from 'm using the 1 that shows status updates from facebook and such.

also my wifi is working a lot better I still lose signal when I grip it in landscape mode but it doesn't lose signal completely and I can still use wi-fi even in landscape mode holding it with both hands
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
The workaround works great! Thanks for the help, everybody.
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
I was just reading this thread when I noticed that I had the same bug after changing the lockscreen icons. Will flashing a ROM over the update help?
[HTC Sensation] evo9mrjr:
The screenshot bug is killing me half the time I hit the home button it's taking a ****ing pic .... So I have to hit power button to get it to stop
[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
+1

So i downloaded touchpal dialer, wich has a better dialer display, and change the default dialer. This bug push me foward.

In time - I'm using TMO 4G (stock rom, root on, but unlocked sim) and received this update like a regular HTC update. Didn't have to download form anywhere.
[HTC Sensation] Tester30:
Is there another OTA? My phone just got in to update mode????

Anyone can confirm?

And what they're updating now?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
It happened to me too the other night when I updated my phone, I tried turning the phone on and off, taking the battery out and put it back on but still the phone icon on lockscreen won't show up so I ended up reseting my phone to factory condition and there the phone icon back again with updated firmwares
[HTC Sensation] Freshly_Snipes:
What's the name of this "update" you're seeing?
[HTC Sensation] rosedog:
Okay so I just ran into this too but this bug is affecting other apps too like the Dock Mode. Is there a work around for that too? I had it and the update removed it from my lockscreen and my app shortcuts.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
For me so far so good the only thing I hate about the update is some apps that I have before I can move it to the sd card now the option of moving it is grayed out so I guess ill be running out of space on my phone internal storage. Sucks lol.
[HTC Sensation] chipsot:
I have a sim free Sensation with a Tmobile contract. Only had the phone a week and have set it up with some folders on the home screen. Had the ota update to 2.3.4 and now i cant add any apps to any folders, when i try the ghosted app freezes on the home screen and eventually gets put in the 1st folder on the screen! Is it a problem with shortcuts that this update has introduced possibly?

Nope.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theycallme Tim:
Well that's disappointing. If something is going to be annoying and distracting, it would be nice if it at least served a purpose.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avandor:
For the 5 seconds you have your main screen open and scroll around to select an option, how is that annoying ?

Just remove the People tile, or hide it way at the bottom... live tiles is the whole idea behind WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablosblizz:
I love seeing the pictures, the only thing I find annoying is when my Windows Live contacts don't have pictures and WP7 just displays a blank picture where somebodies picture could possibly be.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rudma:
Just add a custom made picture to the contact (old foto of the person). That's what I did and now I always see a picture of them.

Or ask them to update their live of Facebook picture.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avandor:
To those without a picture, I added a WP7 logo (but most have some sort of a pic) :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theycallme Tim:
I use my phone a lot and just find it distracting. It also just seems like soemthing that could easily and should have the option of just being a statictile. ... One of a number of small things that I think are "no braibers" that are lacking in Mango. ... Not saying it's a terrible OS ... Jus that I hope the next version is MUCH better.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jotapm:
Having an option to turn that off would take the "live" from "live tile"

Everything moves in WP7...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theycallme Tim:
Not everything. There are plenty of tiles that don't blink at you. Being able to move your tiles around is great. And if you want it to blink like a Christmas tree, that's fine too. I'd just like to be able to disable that function. Something like being able to have a wallpaper, no wallpaper, or a constantly changing wallpaper in Windows 7 on a PC.

If nothing else, it ought to be an optin as a courtesy to the small portion of the population for whom blinking colored lights can pose a risk of causing seizures. (And the equally small portion who may otherwise like most things about the OS, but just not that.) Fom a coding perspective, making blinky tiles optional should not be hard at all.

I started a poll on sms preference, but I wanted to start one on keyboard too. I personally use Swift Key x. I've tried the other ones (mainly swype style key boards) and I just realize at the end of the day, I can type faster with two thumbs than dragging one. What keyboard do you guys use and what theme?

EDIT:

I use AOSP when CM7 comes out. At the end that one is my favorite.
[HTC Sensation] RaDeN305:
I tried a bunch of different keyboards before settling on Smart Keyboard Pro. I just wanted a simple keyboard (no swiping, fancy predictive text that tries to guess what I'm typing, etc.) that could be themed and remove the period. That damn period was bugging me and Smart Keyboard had the option to remove it. I also like the Honeycomb theme I'm using for it.
[HTC Sensation] Qwox:
At the moment i use SwiftKey X and i'm happy with it so far.
[HTC Sensation] eraldoluis:
I use the stock one and have never tried another one. Now that I wanna try something different, I will wait a little bit to see the result of this poll. :)
[HTC Sensation] GManLynx:
I like the way swift key auto corrects, it does it well. Something about smart keyboard pro annoyed me. I can't remember what. I think it was something about typing smilies
