I personally don't have a thrive but my cuz does... He has zagg shield on it, that's all I ever use myself... Easy to install and last forever

Yeah I have the Zagg installed on my Thrive. If you have never installed them before I would recommend maybe getting the people at Best Buy or the Zagg stand to install for you. I have installed a bunch of them on my phones but the Thrive was some work because of the size. But if you take your time its possible to get it right.

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Dr.Move:
With sense ROMs and Builds requiring us to use “turn off” instead of restart. And some of them have modified power menus so using a third party app to turn off the device may be as bad as removing the battery. Is there a way to make an app that activates the sense power menu. I’m not sure if anyone’s familiar with this: create a shortcut for the program “endkey” located in windows folder, and assign it to a quick launch button, when you click on it you’d get the same menu you normally get when long pressing the end key. I’m guessing that it’s possible to create an app for android that simulates a long press, thus saving us plenty of long presses on the end key. but would anyone be willing to create such app?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Marvlesz:
+1 for this .. Let's see who can do it. (I wish I could do it, but life's life i guess :rolleyes:)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Dr.Move:
I don't think it's that hard, but we need a developer/programmer who knows what to do.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Marct77:
Search the Market for 'Quick Boot' I think it will do what your asking for,although you'll need the paid version to get the hot boot option to restart without going back to WinMo.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Dr.Move:
thanks for the reply.

I wouldn't have posted this if I hadn't tried quick boot. It did turn off my device, but it also cost me an hour of restoring my sense back to the way it was, because it made my android crash the next time I ran it.. I'm not sure if it does the same to NAND roms, but it sure made my day miserable on my SD build. and I was able to try the paid version, and it gave me the same result.

an app that opens the native sense power menu, or even a scrip to do so is much more reliable than a hit and miss app originally designed for android phones.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Dblfstr:
You have and SD build right?

Are you asking for someone to make an app/widget/shortcut that you use while in android that will call up a WM program to restart the device? Maybe I am confused.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Dr.Move:
yes, I can't live without WinMo..

and no, what I'm saying is since some developers modified the shutdown process, a normal shutdown isn't safe. The solution is by either creating a program that can access the original "sense" power menu options, or an app capable of bringing up that menu. even a script that brings up that menu would be fine.

The resemblanse to WinMo's end key, that endkey.exe is the program that runs when you long press your power button, so if you create a shortcut for it you can run it without pressing the power button.

Hello!

I orginally rooted my HTC Desire 2.3 with revolutionary. I run the orginal Desire RUU RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.1_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121684.

But now it seems like the phone is bricked or something. My phone is booting, but it stops on the "HTC startup screen". When trying to access recovery i just get the HTC startup screen to.

Any solution of what to do?

Thanks.

Best regards from

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MIMi King:
okay there are two situations that may have happened to you:

1.The recovery was flashed badly so you can't boot into recovery but it doesn't make the phone to not boot.. but anyway it can be solved by flashing a custom recovery.. I recommend you to choose ClockworkMod.. 100000000 instructions over the net how to do that.. just google : flash the clockworkmod recovery manually

2.the s-off process may have breaked your hboot tables.. so you can't boot.. you can solve it by flashing a custom Hboot table. but you have to be able to boot into fastboot.. it can be down by holding down the vol down key alongside the power button.. so the phone will boot into Fastboot USB.. so connect your usb then download a custom HBoot table from Alpharev.nl and flash it by using fastboot console.. : the command : "fastboot flash hboot xxxx.img" while replacing the xxxx with your image name...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RareJonna:
Thanks for the help. I tried both, now i have clockworkmod installed again. But my phone is still not able to boot, i tried to use a nandroid backup, and also tried to install some roms. But the phone dont go longer than to the HTC boot screen.

If USB briked try using AndroidFlasher1.8.0 to fix (click File and then USB brick fix) and boot in fastboot mode (back+power) to install recovery image
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RareJonna:
USB brick is not the problem..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
First of all, you should use the latest htc ruu:

http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe

Now to your problem: You s-offed your phone with revolutionary. So your hboot version get updated. As far as I know, to a version which is protected against overwriting by ruu. You need to flash hboot downgrader in fastboot from alpharev site first:

http://alpharev.nl - don't forget to check md5sum.

If you need a guide for fastboot, see my sig.

After you flashed hboot downgrader, you can flash ruu. The same problem was discussed here:

Thanks, it worked! Great to have you guys.
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
Hey guys :D

If I'm not wrong SuperCID is the manufacturer code, which prevents me to flash any Custom ROM and staying on Stock ROM, right?

So, if I didn't do SuperCID and still on Stock ROM, can I use RUU to return back to S-ON? If yes, will it install even if the RUU isn't the right one for the device?

Thank you :)
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Super CID means you can flash ANY RUU you decide to try
[HTC Sensation] claudenegm:
So if I didn't do the SuperCID, if I choose the wrong RUU, it will not get flashaed or will it continue and I'll end up with a brick?

Edit: I found this: "If they don't have SuperCID, they'll get 'ERROR[131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR' if they try to flash the wrong RUU and it will stop without flashing anything to the phone." Can anybody confirm that it's right?

Thank you :)
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
That is correct. With your normal CID you can only flash RUUs that are for your phone. WIth Super CID you can flash any RUU that takes your fancy
[HTC Sensation] WTFD4V1D:
Are there any downsides from using SuperCID?
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
Others have reported that with super CID, they were not getting the updates from htc, but some said that they still received official updates from htc even with super CID. There are no real downsides to superCID as far as I know except maybe when you return it for warranty purposes, but you can always put your original CID back. Just take note of your original CID before you super CID.
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
The alternative to SuperCID is to flash the ENG hboot after you're s-off. The ENG hboot will disregard a CID mismatch.

hey thanks for reading my mytouch 4g track pad doesn't want to click what is another way to install a rom on recovery thanks:D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoiD_Dweller:
You can install it from the Rom Manager app, I think its a premium feature though.. I always do it from boot recovery and from there all I am aware of is the trackpad button you are trying.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2747343:
use the camera button to press instead of the trackball...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] montydrei:
Before you start, I recommend backing up your text messages and call logs, as these can be restored to any ROM I've tried so far. I recommend using SMS Backup & Restore and Call Logs Backup & Restore by Ritesh Sahu, both available free from the Android Market. Also, back up your apps using Titanium Backup, as it is faster to restore user apps from backup than having to install them again from the Market.

You do not need to purchase premium for ROM Manager to install a ROM from it. To install a ROM from ROM Manager:

1. Download the ROM of your choice.

2. Copy the ROM's ZIP file to your SD card (I recommend you place it in the root of the SD card, i.e., inside no other folder).

3. Open ROM Manager on your phone.

4. Under ROM Management, select Install ROM from SD Card.

5. Select the ZIP file for your ROM from the list.

6. In the ROM Pre-Installation popup window, check all three check boxes, and tap OK.

7. In the Reboot And Install popup window, tap OK. Your phone will reboot into recovery, back up your current ROM, and install the selected new ROM. This process can take from 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the current ROM being backed up and the new ROM being installed.

8. Enjoy your new ROM! Note that on first boot on a new ROM, it will take a long time because the OS is rebuilding the cache.

ETA: Anecdotal evidence time! I just flashed from Virtuous Unity 1.31.0 to RoyalGinger 3.0 just for the fun of it, and it took 11 minutes from hitting OK in step 7 until the ROM booted into initial setup.

Please can someone help!!!

I run Virtuous Unity 1.31. All the buttons on my myTouch 4G/Glacier worked fine until last week when I flashed a new kernel (Virtuous Custom Kernel v3).

Here are my problems now:

Trackpad: Before, my trackpad woke the system up but now it doesn't. I've flashed the trackpad wake mod and it still doesn't fix it.

Note: Other than failing to wake the system up, the trackpad's functions are working. It scrolls up/down/side to side just fine through menus, etc.

Power button: In recovery mode, it acts strange - it won't execute the selected menu item. Trackpad scrolls up/down/side to side fine.

Note: Outside of recovery mode, the power button works just fine.

In desperation, I've even flashed a different ROM (Cyanogenmod 7) and the trackpad wake issues I've mentioned above persists in this ROM too.

Please can someone tell me what I should do. I really will appreciate any help you can offer me.

Thank you so much!!!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoiD_Dweller:
I use the trackpad to scroll and select in recovery, not the power button.. thats for the hboot menu
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightspeedx:
In HBOOT, all the commands seem to work for me. I can use Power to execute a selection. But in Recovery, it doesn't work for anything. When I use the trackpad to select, it does nothing.

I have to use the button on the right side of the phone (camera button?) to select a highlighted item. There is something wrong and I can't figure out what to do. Please help!
[Motorola Triumph] KryptoNyte39:
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with Android phones (with HDMI out) and connecting them to a larger touchscreen (rather than a TV), and can the touchscreen then control the smartphone via the HDMI cable?
[Motorola Triumph] KryptoNyte39:
I should probably mention that my end goal here is to drop a 10" HDMI touchscreen in the car, and each time I enter the car I simply connect the phone to the touchscreen and then close the phone in the glovebox, basically using the touchscreen to remotely view and control all the phone features.
[Motorola Triumph] rune-san:
I'm afraid that HDMI does not support touch screen input. The type of touch screens you are referring to use either a USB or Serial (RS-232) connection to the computer, in addition to the video interface, to provide Touch Screen input. While I'm sure with a little digging there might be something like this to control your phone through a computer (My Mobiler allowed for this on Windows Mobile 5-6.5 phones through either USB or Bluetooth), I don't see being able to do this without a computer (or carputer) as it was, being involved.
[Motorola Triumph] KryptoNyte39:
So basically, the Triumph would need a USB host to get it done?
[Motorola Triumph] rune-san:
Yeah, my guess would be that that would be the minimum requirement, as well as obviously some sort of driver support for what would essentially be "Mouse input".
[Motorola Triumph] Todd42:
I Think your best bet would be, if you could find an old netbook. One with a touch screen, you could use it as the link to you Phone. I know of 3 programs that let you output your Android phone to a computer monitor. All work on the MT and one lets you use your mouse and keyboard on the MT.

You can find the one I use here.

And if you want to try and make your on touch screen for a netbook take a look at this link. would make for a fun project.

For the other programs have a look at Ashot and Droid@screen. All work with my MT.
[Motorola Triumph] KryptoNyte39:
Thanks, folks. I was kind of eyeballing this thing;

http://www.mo-co-so.com/Double-DIN-Lilliput-669GL-70NP-C-T-7-Touch-Screen-p/mcs-lil-669-dd.htm

But based on what's working right now, the Lilliput screen would still only be a display, and I'd still be controlling it from the phone somehow.

I'm not a programmer I'm afraid, but based on the current state of car stereos, I'm amazed Android hasn't progressed into this market rapidly. Let's face it, Pioneer's current $1000+ head units have just a fraction of the capabilities of my $129 Optimus V.

I considered an Android based head unit, but I think the better path is to be able to tether to the phone when you enter the car in some fasion, and then just simply use the larger in-car display to view the Android device and control it from the touchscreen. In this fashion, I don't need yet another Android device, and the in-car unit is basically without much logic. I'm afraid we might be a couple years out yet.
[Motorola Triumph] rune-san:
Yeah, such a panel like that wouldn't really work all that well for your application. The aspect ratio of the panel isn't ideal, and it appears the touchscreen works off a serial interface. Even worse, it is a resistive panel (which is leaps and bounds worse than the capacitive touch panels we're used to on our modern phones). Overall I think even if you did wire something up the experience would be fairly lack luster.
[Motorola Triumph] KryptoNyte39:
Todd, I hear what you're sayin'. I actually have an old netbook that I hopped up with an SSD. I'm wondering about stowing the netbook, rigging up some kind of start button, and then forming a MIMO monitor into the dash ...

I cant flash because i cant boot up my phone

i dont want to go to tmobile because i dont want them to replace my battery and realized im rooted with a custom rom and loose my warranty
[HTC Sensation] BonesRed:
There's no rooted sticker inside your phone so they won't know unless you tell them, plus the average working stiff at a tmobile store doesn't give a damn what you do to your phone and wouldn't notice that it's rooted in the first place, even if they did care. Ask for a new battery and install it yourself. It IS your device. Don't worry about it dawg, ARHD's start up screen is a Generic White with green text HTC one, AND I have done this myself, when the problem was new, after wire stripping didn't work for me.

Good luck

I bought one a while ago, but they just released an expandable phone cradle that should fit the Sensation. It's a pretty good controller, and works well with emulators (yongzh at least). Unless the game lets you map to a keyboard or controller though, you'll probably still have to play with touchscreen keys. I had a bit of a problem with a joystick falling off and the bluetooth not connecting with multiple devices, so if you don't feel like you could improvise solutions, hold off. Personally, reflashing the image fixed bluetooth and superglue fixes everything else.

The D-Pad works like a trackball, the joysticks act like awds and 4865. Start, Select, A, B, X, Y, Left Trigger, Right Trigger all act like button presses with no keyboard or Android equivalent.
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
Bought it for my sensation as well and mine is absolutely perfect in every way. Had dremeled the sides a looot to fit the sensation but now ordered the new holder. If you like playing emulators this thing is THE way to go. Works perfectly with bluez ime despite htc's darn bluetooth stack that works with nothing.

The reason why i ask is if I decide to run a different rom and lose the 4G key because I lose the backup of it, can restoring to stock and updating the profile restore the key? Or would I be required to go back to sprint to get the key?

Also just curious to know whats actually in the profile when you go to update it. I know whats in teh PRL but not in the profile.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
Nope, nothing restores the key if you haven't backed it up.
