Logitech Ultimate Ears 350vm - - do not have Memory wire -- so they do not work for over-ear wearing. I had to play with the different plugs to figure out which ones fit, but once your find the right plugs, it works great hanging down -- they really do stay in, and only once it is really jammed into your ears does everything work well.. noise isolation and lower base levels -- and you can really turn the volume down too .

My wife has taken to throwing her balled up sock at me, to get my attention, because the noise isolation is so effective.. I've been reading books while she watches Anime, and i simpmly don't want to listen.. so i read a book and listen to my phone... yeah.. 350vm work well at canceling out anime...

It is not necessary to use the included adapter.. that is just for Samsung/Nokia phones.

Havent seen anything anywhere, user cp, or in here, but the little quick nav window for selecting, moving between forums is/has been gone for a few days on both my NC and my N1, both running cm7 nightlys 165 & 162 respectivly.

Not sure if its my equipment or a change in the forum. Anyone else experiencing this? I use it alot to quick nav around like forums.
[About XDA developers] svetius:
Yup, we removed it because we found an opportunity to improve performance on the site. Turns out that little drop down include a TON of HTML calls.

Our impression was that few people used it. If it turns out that it is greatly missed, we'll bring it back, but we rather enjoy the slight boost in I/O performance.
[About XDA developers] productofusa:
Ah, ok, thanks for the heads up, figured it was another ui/theme/cm7 bug until I checked my phone. As I seem to do most of my surfing on my Nook Color lately, any boost in I/O is gratefully accepted!

On the other hand its suprising to me that there hasn't been more grumbling as it was really handy to use moving back and forth between forums without using the back button and still keeping track of threads viewed. How does everyone else accomplish this? I must be missing something really obvious.
[About XDA developers] d-iivil:
Damn... Now I have to scroll back up every time I want to change section when I have finished reading a thread. It's a bit pain with mobile browser. I miss the drop down menu and haven't noticed any speed difference.
[About XDA developers] looktall:
i haven't noticed any improvement in site performance.

i use the drop down menu exclusively to navigate between forums.

or at least i used to.

it's frustrating to say the least having to scroll back to the top of the page i've just read in order to click back to the forum or to change forums.

this may come as a surprise (or maybe not) but some of us don't just sit in one forum hitting refresh.

some of us have different devices and like to switch between the various sub forums for those devices.

please bring it back.

find another way to improve the performance of the site.
[About XDA developers] productofusa:
I used to use it for device specific forums only, switching between devices I found it easier to tap menu > bookmarks.

On laggy/image heavy forums ive found disabling avatars to help greatly. At this point i'm leaning towards wanting the drop down menu back (maybe in a limited form? device specific?), as the ease of use outweighs any precieved gains in speed, smoothness, ect.

Really, i'm surprised there hasn't been more traffic regarding the removal of forum jump, it makes me wonder how other people use the forums? Forum jump just seems so intuitive.
[HTC Sensation] barondebxl:
There's probably a thread about it, but I just wanna share my battery life experience after the update. I got the tmobile sensation and before the update, charging my phone from 0 to 100% while the phone was on took at least 4 1/2 hours. Now it takes about 2 1/2 hours. Great improvement! Plus the battery last longer.
[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
After second drain (100 to 0%), second recharge was really faster. About 3 hours form 0 to 100% with phone off.

Battery life was longer either.
[HTC Sensation] mic180:
Really? Lucky you guys then! I've found the battery life to be worse after the update :(
[HTC Sensation] xtcislove:
My Phone charges even faster 20% in a few minutes! And Great battery life with custom ROM ...
[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
Second charge, almost the same time.

[HTC Sensation] bakili:
No updates, no root, all stock - moderate use, original battery, now I start seeing nearly 30hr on one charge. First few days where a lot shorter.

On the first day, i let phone drain battery completely, charged without switching phone on-did this few times and battery improved.

Hello im running Gummy Charged 1.8 GBE and today my phone didnt connect to 4g.

I have no data, and i tried resetting the phone, deleted all data in recovery, still no 4g.

Is this a problem with my phone or the network or what?

Didnt drop it or anything, no clue what is going on.

Thx.

I had no 4G earlier, but did a few minutes ago when I looked, so it appears to have been network for me. I personally always assume it's network, because I haven't seen a case yet where it isn't.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethstar:
Hi.

I'm new to android, and i am being forced to learn as my wife has just bought a desire hd.

Unfortunately it is simlocked to t-mobile in the uk.

In my quest to unlock it i stumbled on this thread and software http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1180639&highlight=umt

Now i half understand most of the terms after researching the internet.

All i really need to do is simunlock the phone, but i amm unsure if this will allow software updates in the standard phone way?

Halfway through the thread i found that to do the simunlock function you need to downgrade then root. I am taking this to mean downgrade android version, to allow use of the vaulnerability of the old version? Is there a downside to this?

Rooting... if i gain root access through the listed method can I leave the stock ROM on there or will it be the downgraded version i used to unlock it?

Once i have downgraded and sim unlocked can I upgrade again without using a custom rom through the phones normal software?

What are the benefits of doing the radio S-Off, and ENG s--off functions and are there any drawbacks?

The wife really wants to have a standard phone that works like a standard one that can receive updates.

I know i'm probably better off just buying a imei based simunlock code, if that is the case can anyone recomend a uk service? I'd still be interested in the answers to the questions for my phone upgrade time.

Thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
Downgrade, temp root, run the radio, super cid, sim unlock tool and you'll be sim unlocked and can still install ota firmware.

+1, you don't need to install a custom ROM, and if you run an orange RUU you will be able to install OTA updates without any problems. If it where your phone I recommend the custom ROM route but with your better halfs phone your probably better off sticking with stock

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanleywinston:
Hoping someone out there can help... but after receiving my repaired phone back (after following the normal unrooting threads and sending it back to T-Mobile), rerooting it and then discovering it was still broken (gets hot and reboots), I went to do the process again.

I did the same as last time, ran the ruu but this time it failed on 55% with a error 110.

My phone seems only capable of displaying a black screen with ! In each corner and HTC in the middle. I can fastboot from cmd only. I've been reading up and have seen the word brick mentioned alot. I've tried reflashing the ruu, redownloading it, using the HTC one instead of the tmobile one, but it always fails on 55%, whilst writing user (it completes radio and system).

Is it time to put it in the bin?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cowman4000:
My wife has the incredible 2 and it is rooted on the stock GB 2.3.3 rom. This morning she emails me and says her phone has a little android icon with an exclamation point... I had her pull the battery to try to reboot but it just goes back to that same screen.

Any ideas how we can boot back up into the ROM? I won't be able to physically touch her phone until i get home from work tonight but I thought if you all could give me some suggestions in the mean time that would be great, thanks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klarson:
Is she able to get into recovery? If so, then she should be able to wipe and flash something else. However, if she isn't (and she's unable to boot the rom) then she can load the ruu through the bootloader. I'm assuming she's s-off, though. Loading the ruu would return the phone to stock and then you can reroot it afterward. Weird, though. The android with the exclamation mark is stock recovery so it seems as if she doesn't have a custom recovery.Was clockwork ever flashed?

Edit: Actually instead of going back to stock just load the custom CWM that's in the development forum. With the flashed recovery she can clear dalvik and cache. Hope this somewhat helps! :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klm22:
Assuming she had CWM recovery flashed during the rooting process, get her to go into recovery and try wiping the dalvik and cache partitions. She may be able to boot after that.

If she doesn't have HTC Fast Boot feature turned off, she'll need to do a battery pull first to really shut the power off, replace the battery, then hold down the Down Volume button while powering on to get into recovery.

good luck
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klarson:
Holding power + volume down gets you into the bootloader. But from there she can get into recovery. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Conduitz:
not sure how to fix but i know what the cause is

This seems to have been caused by the push of the new market. Mine did the exact same thing today... Pulled it out of my pocket to see it on a blue android with exclamation, basically the stock recovery screen. I think that the market app is trying to flash there, but since we have custom recoveries, it takes a crap.

all we need is to be able to somehow clear wherever the DL for the new market install is, or manually apply the market from recovery. however, I have NO idea how to do either.

*edit* So i rebooted into recovery (pull battery 30 sec, replace, hold down power + vol down until bootloader, then selected recovery) cleared cache, cleared dalvik (im thinking mostly for good measure, dont think this solved the problem), and then rebooted the phone. AS SOON as it was booted enough to interact with, i held down the power button, turned it to airplane mode. the clearing of the cache mustve dumped the file pushed earlier, because as soon as the phone fully booted i got a "OTA software update failure" message, telling me it couldnt connect to the update server (airplane mode had the antenna off).

hope it works for you, I think it worked for me here. i'll post updates if anything changes.

p.s. i recommend finding the .apk floating around for the new market, and adding it manually, so that this doesnt happen post-airplane mode
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
The android market has nothing to do with what you just said.

The OTA message you're getting is from HTC pushing an "Over the air" update. The market is supposed to be updated while you're in the market. Two completely different things and I doubt it's the cause of this issue. Otherwise we'd all be experiencing problems.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cowman4000:
yeah CWM is on her phone. It was installed during the rooting process. I've been wanting to put a Sense 3.0 ROM on there... looks like this is the perfect opportunity!

Thanks for the tips!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klarson:
No problem man. Good luck. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Conduitz:
I'd love a link to anything stating the market was supposed to update while in the market.

each phone company was responsible for their own compatible version of the new market, I believe I read the other day, which would be why HTC, not VERIZON, WHO PUSHES ALL OTHER OTAS TO YOUR PHONE (unless theyre not your service provider, of course) sent an OTA to the phone.

Not sure what other, if any, updates HTC had to send today to my handset, seeing as it has recieved both OTA's before (GB and fixes), and as soon as I installed the new market app manually, the OTA didnt prompt me to install on reboot as it had previously.

at any rate, what I did fixed it. Does the cause, theorized by someone who didnt make the phone or the software for it, or the root tool, or custom HBoot that it uses, really effing matter?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
I'm glad you got it fixed but yes it matters. You say now that you're theorizing but in other places you're stating that the market update IS the culprit.

Say you're not sure but here's what I did. Otherwise you start to get people thinking that the new market is the cause of their issues when it has not been verified.

My phone downloaded the new market, I didn't manually install it and I do not have the problem you're describing.

My Girlfriend is the exact same way, She doesn't like the new market and it got installed on her phone but it not once rebooted into stock recovery.

what then?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klarson:
chillax bro. What you did obviously fixed the issue. The market is pushed to phones (similar to that of OTAs); however, the market is "updated" when the user accesses the original installed market. There won't be any warning or anything before the new market is installed over the old one. Correct me if i'm wrong, but you stated that each phone company is responsible for their own compatible version of the market... I BELIEVE that is incorrect as each market works on ANY android powered device, regardless of phone company/manufacturer. I am nearly certain that the market is universal on android phones. Again, someone correct me if i'm wrong. Just trying to clear something up. :)

http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=190860
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
Google pushes out all the market updates. It's the files on the ROM itself that tells what to show in the market, like how some phones have their own "carrier channel"?

I believe this is done via the build.prop file, I could be wrong on which file it is but what does and doesn't show up in the market is controlled by the phone, Not necessarily the carriers.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klarson:
That's exactly what i thought. Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Conduitz:
i only ever said "it seems that" the market is the culprit. best guess is that its rom to rom wether or not something is getting screwed up from the market update or whatever. Not sure. Maybe its not the market at all. I just saw the same issue i had posted, threw my theory and fix out there. worked for me, hoped it'd help the poster.

also, to acknowledge the link you provided, that I requested.... I stand corrected. I only know just enough to be dangerous with these things and always appreciate solid fact to add to my knowledge base.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] maniac2k:
Problem is from a failed ota push. Wipe cache and davlik. Reboot phone and rename /system/etc/security/otacerts.zip to something else.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] MisdemeanorMatt:
This x2,

About once a week I would get a push to phone via OTA, causes the same exact problem your having. Renamed otacerts.zip with root explorer, have not had a problem since.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] edster00:
I just had the same issue with my phone after the newest OTA pushed (I should have rejected it). My phone wouldn't boot, I got the white triangle, yellow exclamation and blue android. I used Conduitz's fix and I am back in business!

Thanks to the forum (and Conduitz)!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] erjennin:
Hey guys, I have had the same issue with the triangle/exclamation point and the blue android guy. I booted into recovery and cleared cache. Like many have said it fixed the issue, however I want to push the 2.3.4 update to my phone.

How do I get my phone to accept and install the update?

(I know I'll lose root, but it will take somebody about a day to get it back in this forum, so that's not a concern).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] the_tack:
I can tell you that I used the market less than 5 min before doing the OTA. Directly after the OTA, the new market was present. If they are not including the new market with the OTA, it sure did happen nearly simultaneously, which is quite coincidental. I know what the Google link said, but it sure seemed like the new market came with the update.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] smalrus:
I'm having a similar problem, but I feel like I've tried everything but the airplane mode suggestion (because I'm not sure I understand, either, the logic in that).

I've been running SkyRaider Zeus since around when it came out in August. Shortly after Verizon started it's last OTA and I ran into the issue with recovery, renamed otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak... Hadn't any problems for about a couple of weeks.

In the last month (plus change), I've been having a problem with my phone randomly powering down and rebooting into recovery (the yellow exclamation triangle -- even though CWM 5 is on my phone). Can't do anything. It's just the triangle, no recovery menu. Powering down and restarting just means it randomly reboots into recovery again.

If I then do a battery pull, I can restore a backup (wiped data/cache/dalvik in CWM 5), but that's ridiculous. This happened to me once almost a month ago, once two weeks ago, twice last sunday, and earlier this evening.

Any thoughts on causes? Solutions? Is it randomly trying to pull ota updates? But that doesn't make sense since I already renamed otacerts...

I'm completely lost and want it to stop. I shouldn't have to keep doing battery pulls and restoring backups.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] edster00:
Did you freeze the file "com.smithmicro.dm" with Titanium? I kept getting the update and the error message with just renaming the otacert.zip file, freezing com.smithmicro.dm fixed the issue for me, but I'm not running a custom rom.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] smalrus:
I'll give that a shot (though I probably won't know for sure if that's the actual fix). Wondering what will happen with ICS...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RRF12:
i run skyradier zeus also all u have to do is freeze the file "com.smithmicro.dm" with Titanium an you will have no more problems

[HTC EVO 3D] ptrickg7776:
I've searched for an embarrassing amount of time to find where the 4g notification icons are located. I found some info in the og evo forum saying its in Settings.apk but i cannot find it anywhere in evo 3d. I'm mostly concerned w/finding the stat_notify_wimax_in_range, I believe. Left hand side notification 4g wifi symbol with exclamation. Can anyone direct me where to find this? Any help is greatly appreciated.
[HTC EVO 3D] steal25:
I believe its in SystemUI.apk

are you trying to find the way to remove that notification? If so, I made that mod in the other thread about this...Found Here

[HTC EVO 3D] ptrickg7776:
I was hoping to match all my other icon edits. Just trying to add a bit of color but I think i'll be just fine removing it. Or help w/locating is great.

Many thanks!

The 4G icon just bugs me being the only white icon(s) left. I literally looked thru every apk in 5 different roms trying to nail their location. May be going blind!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
If youre trying to color the actual 4g icon (signal bar) that is located in systemUI.apk (res/drawables-hdmi) just look for the icon that most resembles the one your setup uses
[HTC EVO 3D] ptrickg7776:
Thanks again Vinchenzop. You're very helpfull but i still can't find that icon for 4g notification that pops on left of status bar. i have edited all of the ones in settings and systemUI but the dang thing is still white. not sure where it is but I can't find it anywhere. oh well!

I did use your removal zip and my status bar looks much better not having the one lone white icon. I really appreciate your help on this!
