I had no idea you could do it this way. Saves more trouble than waiting for the screen to turn on and then end the call.

I mostly use it for moving the cursor, it's a huge help because a lot of times it just doesn't go exactly where I want it to go when I press the touch screen- so I move it over 1 or 2 characters via trackball. I use this pretty frequently too.
[Droid Incredible General] LoraxEleven:
Mostly for Recovery navigation and selection, but for cursor movement, too. And before the proximity sensor worked right, for the answer/end call thing, too. But now it seems to always know when to turn the screen on or off, even in the dark... That's with MIUI.us.
[Droid Incredible General] IncredibleNoob:
Same here. I LOVE the trackball and use it all the time for moving the cursor and copy/paste. I am reluctant to get a new phone without one.
[Droid Incredible General] AndroJak:
I use it a good bit - flipping through screens, moving cursor - but gained some new tips in this thread!
[Droid Incredible General] GnatGoSplat:
I use it ALL the time to move the cursor because I make typos all the time in portrait mode. I guess my fingers are too big for the screen keyboard.

When I switch to my iPhone, I am constantly looking for the trackpad when I make a typo. Trackpad is much better than iPhone's crappy magnifier.
[Droid Incredible General] sharka9x:
I use it to move the cursor to edit something I mis-swyped. That's about it.

hey i accidently flashed 2.22.23.02 on to my rogers htc dream which i figured out needed a different radio now when i turn on my phone it just gets stuck on the rogers screen and i cant boot into recovery or to the bootloader so is my phone now useless or can i fix it
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Re-flash it with the correct one according to your ROM. Then you will be good to go.
[G1 General] ldrifta:
well he cant get to recovery or bootloader so how will he flash anything? lol jtag? pretty sure you might be out of luck... unless somehow you can get the orange.nbh to flash to your device...
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Oops, missed that. I thought I read that he can.
[G1 General] thanojan10:
is there any way i can flash it using my computer
[G1 General] ezterry:
Only if you can get into fastboot or adb..

From the sound of it you had a 3.22.* radio and used recovery to flash a 2.22.* radio.. while both radios work on the phone if you switch them by recovery like that you prob. Have a brick requiring JTAG..

Before giving up hope:

Pull battery + any USB/power wire, replace battery and while holding camera press power..

If you are in hboot, you can restore the phone by fastboot if its an engenering SPL, otherwise a Rogers dreaimg.nbh

If not plug in the USB wire and run on your computer 'fastboot devices' if the phone is found or fastboot USB is on the screen you lucked out (and somthing is wrong with recovery making it fail to load), and can use fastboot to install a valid radio+spl+recovery (make sure you flash all 3 before restarting)

If this isn't working and you can't get into the rom or recovery, you have an ebi0 radio (2.22) with a kernel (recovery) compiled for ebi1 (3.22) and are in boot mode 3 to force the phone to boot into recovery.. Due to the mismatch between the radio and recovery your phone is not able to boot and clear the boot flag to allow normal operation.. Thus without jtag its not possible to enter a useful state.

This is why its recommended to flash radios and SPLs via fastboot when possible since fastboot won't set the boot mode thus allow you at least access to the bootloader in most cases to correct any mistakes.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rvbarton:
I've been using my Dell Streak 5 primarily as an alarm clock and a bedside tablet. Anyone know how to turn off the "cell stand by"? It is showing that I dont' have a sim (with the red X in the menu bar), and under battery statistics, it shows cell stand by as the #1 culprit in battery usage.

Thanks!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheManii:
Do you have airplane mode on? You can still use wifi with it.

Usual best method is to disable the cell radio alltogether which requires removing a dozen or so phone related files. I dont know which ones there are exactly though
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rvbarton:
when I turn on airplane mode, it automatically turns off all connections. When I enable wifi, then airplane mode goes off and it's back in the state I mentioned previously.

/sigh...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
There is an article on StreakSmart that shows how to create a shortcut to the activity Status Settings. It provides way to turn off the cellular data connection.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netomx:
I remembered buying an app called SwitchPro Widget or something like that, and could disable the cell standby but keep all connections alive.

It is now done, HTC did what they said and before September. Now the real questions is, who will use this?
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
People who aren't on XDA. :p
[HTC Sensation] Tatdude806:
Isn't that the truth!
[HTC Sensation] Glotzeulor:
Why would anyone who does not know about xda, or was never here before want to unlock his bootloader?
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
A bunch of people on Facebook (who probably never heard of XDA) started complaining about it too. You know how angry mobs get.
[HTC Sensation] Tatdude806:
If you don't care about warranties or are just lazy, then those are the people who will use this method.
[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
Because they bought their phones in a foreign country during vacations, and HTC doesn't offers a good suport in theirs home country. So it is desirable get S-OFF from HTC even if it means lose warranty.
[HTC Sensation] kpholmes:
easy and strait forward root?

would this be an alternative to xda tutorials to achieve root on my sensation? im very new to android, about 3 weeks now, and i'd like to root my phone but from perm temp roots and terminology that i dont understand it made xda tutorials rather difficult. the only downside to htcdev is it could possibly jeopardize your warranty.
[HTC Sensation] daman215:
who cares XDA been added Tmobile lol.............
[HTC Sensation] osugsxr:
what about the flash mobs?
[HTC Sensation] DBBGBA:
htcdev voids the warranty? mmmh no thanks then! (I still have to receive my sensation yet... I was spoiled by the nexus one)
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
It's very easy to get S-OFF and root through Revolutionary. This method isn't good if you want to retain your full warranty. Just follow this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1232107

[HTC Sensation] nxt:
HTCDev site does NOT root your phone, it unlocks the BOOTLOADER only, which is the first step to permanently root your phone.
[HTC Sensation] knuhkles:
Has a new root come out for the latest update?? W/o flashing a Rom?
[HTC Sensation] nxt:
You don't need to flash a ROM to root.

You flash Clockwork Recovery Image on it, then you flash the root zip file to perm root.
[HTC Sensation] knuhkles:
Im a noob... Is there a step by step tutorial from the new update?.. I s-offd with revolutionary before the new update but the root doesn't work now
[HTC Sensation] Mikeglongo:
Sorry but the steps to rooting the phone is confusing for me, if I unlock the bootloader through hTC, what steps do I take to rooting my phone?

Why does the battery take longer to charge while the phone is off?? the funny thing is i think it lasts longer when i charge while the phone is off, am i being paranoic? :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Cmrune:
I have noticed that it charges slower when turned off, but personally i see more battery life when i charge the phone when it is on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Not in my case...It appears to be faster....

Charge via USB and it is slow.

Charge via wall outlet is extremely quick.

The phone trickle charges during the last 10 percent to ensure a real full charge. But it shouldn't matter if the phone is on or off.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TECK:
Hi,

Without reading he forums, I applied the firmware update to my new Galaxy Tab 10.1 32gb wifi tablet. That added an insane amount of garbage, not to mention the ugly format.

I really need your help to restore the retail ROM (without TouchWiz). I looked at the thread where it explains the procedure but certain things are not clear. My tablet is not rooted, can you confirm the proper order to restore to original US retail? I read that once you have the latest firmware update, you cannot re-flash to stock anymore. Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TECK:
Never mind, I managed to revert to retail stock, following this procedure:

1. Settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset

2. Once the data reset, re-configure the tablet and upload the hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip file into Tablet root directory.

3. Boot the tablet in Download mode and use Odin to flash the recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.tar.md5 file. You should get a green pass in Odin.

4. Reboot again the tablet in CWM mode (box with arrow), then select:

Install zip from sdcard > Power button > Choose zip from sdcard > Power button

Select the hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip file > Power button

5. Reboot again the tablet in CWM mode and do a wipe data/factory reset.

6. Reboot again the tablet in Download mode and use Odin to flash the stockretail.tar.md5 file. You should get a green pass in Odin.

The above procedure will bring back to stock your tablet, as it was the day you purchase it. I'm a happy camper now, all garbage is gone and the Android keyboard works properly again. :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moley159:
Hi there.

First up, apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. I've tried searching and not found anything that I recognise as matching my problem(s).

Problem:

I have a HTC Desire running Cyanogenmod 7 and clockworkmod recovery v2.5.0.7. I've got myself into a confusing situation and don't properly understand how to get back to square one. I would ideally like to return the phone to a standard HTC sense rom and give it to my girlfriend.

- It reboots to the CM7 loading screen when I try to install an app.

- If I try to flash a new rom through Clockworkmod it comes up with a failure message on Clockworkmod recovery.

- When I connect to pc it nothing changes on the phone and HTC sense or Revolutionary cannot detect it.

History:

I got my phone from orange on the day they came out and used a goldcard to flash a standard android build without the orange bloatware. Foolishly, I didn't create a backup of the orange rom. When I installed an OTA uptade it killed wifi, when I installed another stock rom I had to pay to unlock it so I could still use my sim. Eventually I got up to 2.29.405.2, and it kept offering to OTA upgrade me to 2.29.405.5, but didn't complete the install when I tried. I read up on how quick CyanogenMod is, tried following all the instructions and ended up where I am now.

For some reason the forum is blocking me from adding my phone info because it thinks I am posting a link?!

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thijs11:
Hi,

There are a lot of similar problems on this forum, but after trying a lot i still can't get my DHD fixed... :( I feel stupid atm..

It happened when trying to install the Sensation v2.1 rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1131063)

I followed the guide from this page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=964996

I started with making the phone Radio S-OFF and ENG S-OFF. This was succesfull.

BELOW are the steps from the flashing guide, the BOLD marked part shows the part it went wrong..

- Tell any people that might call you during the next 10-15 minutes to not worry

- Connect your phone using "Disk drive" to the computer.

- Copy both your full-wipe-1-3.zip and your rom zip file to your SD Card

- Make sure you copied them correctly

- Check again because once you full wipe, you won't have a rom.

- Disconnect your phone from your computer

- Install and open Rom Manager from the market

- Tap on Flash ClockworkMod Recovery

- Wait for it to download (yes, you need a wi-fi or data connection)

- After it is done press "Reboot into recovery"

- If you get an icon with a phone and an exclamation mark in a triangle, remove the battery from your phone, reboot and then flash the clockworkmod recovery again

- Once you are in the clockwork mod recovery, you may use the volume keys as directional keys (up and down) and the power button may be used as Enter.

- I recommend you do a nandroid back-up. You must have at least 1 gb of free space.

- Select "Install Zip from sdcard"

- Select "Choose zip from sdcard"

- Select full-wipe-1-3.zip (It's right under those folders)

- Confirm by selecting the Yes option in between those "NO"s

- Wait for it to finish

- DO NOT REBOOT!!! In case you were not aware, you now have no rom installed

- Once again select "Install Zip from sdcard"

- Select "Choose zip from sdcard"

- Select your rom zip file

- Confirm your selection (just like with the wipe)

- Wait for it to finish

- Please reboot from the recovery menu and flash nothing else before you have rebooted

- Pop a champagne bottle, because it's done.

I was not able to select a file from the SDcard.. It kept saying "SDCARD NOT MOUNTED"

After that ive done some more:

- Format the card with SDFormatter and i've also tried in Clockworkmod itself but also there it said the SDcard wasn't mounted..

I've also read about a USB brick or something.. But to fix the usb brick u needed to put a file, update.zip, on your SDcard... which i couldnt load ofcourse.

At the moment i'm really frustrated because my DHD just wont start!! :eek:

It has no ROM.. At the moment it also stopped starting the Clockworkmod.. It shows a phone with a red exclamation mark when i press RECOVERY from Bootloader screen...

I hope someone can help me fix this DHD..!

Regards, Thijs
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thijs11:
Actually, at the moment i dont care if the ROM i mentioned gets installed.

I'd be SO HAPPY to have the stock Android 2.3.3 with Sense 2.x back!!!!!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thijs11:
Oke it now for some reason found the SDcard and i succesfully wiped the device again with Full wipe 1.5 EXT4 and succesfully installed the Sensation rom.

At this moment the systems just won't boot.

It freezes at the first screen u see when you boot the DHD..

Anyone knows what this could mean??
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROBINGAZI:
I'm sure you have done this but I'm going to ask anyway.

Do you have a nandroid backup somewhere in your computer? If you do try mounting the SDcard with a cardreader...some laptops have a built reader. copy the nandroid folder to where clockwork backs everything up and try restoring from phone recovery.

Since you are hung on boot...see if you can do a factory reset and data wipe...a wipe sometimes clears a rom not booting. then again...I'm speaking with experience from other phones not the Desire HD or any HTC for that matter.

Call Asurion and report it. I haven't heard of the exact problem, but I had a Evo 3D with the crooked screen and it threw the keyboard off a little and made the keys hard to get right(especially around the edges). Usually if you get a bad refurb they will send you a brand new one.
