[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epp_b:
So, I see that there is a 2.1 update for the HTC Hero CDMA from Sprint and I'm very interested in upgrading to be able to use some of the better software out there that doesn't work on 1.5.

The thing is, I finally managed to fix this phone from a bad rooting procedure (it's a used phone, the previous owner rooted it using who-knows-what method and ROM, which caused the wifi to stop working) after spending weeks on the problem and finally have a good, fully-functional phone. So, now, I'm a bit paranoid about any rooting or upgrade procedure, though I suspect and official update from a Sprint shouldn't cause a problem.

I'm also considering doing a basic rooting (no custom ROM) so I can boot into ClockworkMod Recovery and make a complete backup, but, again, I'm very leery about it.

Is there any possibility that rooting, in and of itself, could cause the wifi to stop working or was it that the specific ROM that was installed didn't have the right wifi driver?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abadasstanker69:
Dude there are literally thousands of people running custom roms flawlessly ....taking that in to consideration, what do you think the answer to your question is? Lol for liability purposes we all have to say "there's a risk" but my 11 year old sister rooted her evo and flashed cm7 without any help
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epp_b:
Fair enough, the custom ROM that was used must have been a crappy one.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abadasstanker69:
Well we've had some that had broken wifi long ago but really you probably just could've flashed a new working kernel over it and the problem would be gone. If you wanna stay stock-ish I'd recommend fresh 2.1 but if you wanna really see it fly flash kush-deck gb. Flash the. 29 kernel after you boot and you will never regret it
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epp_b:
Thanks, I'll check those out sometime. Have you got links for them?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DataHawg:
Believe me, you don't want the stock Sprint 2.1 on your Hero. It's terrible. Super slow and it freezes constantly. I ran it for a short time after Sprint released it and that's when I decided to root. If I remember correctly you also can't put your apps on the SD card with it which really limits how many apps you can install.

I am running CyanogenMod 6.0 Froyo with ADW Launcher (built into the Rom) and its snappy and reliable but still has a lot of the bells and whistles. Try Beautiful Widgets and you can have a homescreen clock with animated weather just like the HTC Sense homescreen.

I tried CM 6.1.1 recently (updated froyo with new features) but it used more internal memory than 6.0 which made my phone laggy.

Be sure to get the appropriate Google apps zip file with the new Market

I managed to find some of the software I was looking for and I'm actually pretty happy to run 1.5; I actually find it quite usable.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
It seems that nobody is talking about deodexing the Droid X2. Just thought I would let everyone know that xUltimate 2.2.8 works on the Droid X2 with the newest drivers installed. I am currently manually deodexing my root GB Droid X 2.
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
Some Members Might Not Wanna Take The Risk. With All The ROMs Are Already Deodexed. Me Personally I've Had That Program Downloaded Since The First Time It Was Posted And Have Used It Numerous Times. Now That You Mentioned This, You Should Go Bump That Thread.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
If anyone can instruct me on how to successfully create an update zip I would gladly do it for those that don't want to take the risk of deodexing manually. But I am really shocked that a deodexed GB is not in the TBH App and no one seems to be talking about it.
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
I'm Gonna PM You A Few Websites To Learn How To Do It.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
Am I doing something wrong? I am trying to use the adb commands to copy everything over from the done_app and the done_framework folders but it is saying: CP: /sdcard/done_app/* when I run cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app

These are the commands that I am trying:

adb shell

su

stop

mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/

cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/

rm /system/app/*.odex

rm /system/framework/*.odex

mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

reboot
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
You Need To Manually Transfer Them Over USB First. Both App And Frame Place Them On Your SD Card.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
They are both on my sd card. Actually they are on the external sdcard and the internal sdcard. That is what seems so weird about the error. The files are there. Is the command wrong for the Droid X 2?
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
When You Did "su", Did You Grant The Superuser Request On The Phone?
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
Yeah. You have to do that initially to be able to use the mount command. Is the mount command my issue by chance?
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
There's Nothing Wrong With Your Code As Long As The Two Folders Are On The Root Of The SD Card. I Have No Idea What Is Wrong When The Information You Provided Is What You're Actually Doing.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
I can't figure it out either. I did this to my Droid X with no problems. But the Droid X 2 just wants to be a pain when I am trying it.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
I am wondering, since it is not working in adb shell then could I do it in the terminal?
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
So I finally got everything to work but to do so I had to copy the done_app and the done_frame folders to /data/local/tmp then run the cp commands.

For some reason, I could not get to the SD Card or the External SDCard.
[Motorola Droid X2] wdenker:
you both need to quit hijacking threads and grow up. If I was the mod I would ban both of you.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
Can we please stop hijacking my thread. This is suppose to be about Deodexing the Droid X 2.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
Well I am suprised to report that since deodexing my stock pre-rooted GB, my battery life has been much better. Will have to see what it is like at the end of the day.
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
Oh God Yes. It's Gonna Faster And Smoother. The Point Of Deodexing Is It Recompiles The Odex Inside The Apk For Easier Themeing And The System Is Able To Read The Apks Faster. Definitely Gonna Help Battery If The System Isn't Working As Hard.
[Motorola Droid X2] Cheapxj:
when you connect USB, you MUST be in "charge only" mode w/ usb debugging enabled. ANY OTHER MODE will fail to allow complete access to /sdcard or /sdcard-ext...

or at least that was my experience.
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
I'll Challenge That I Used PC Mode To Run The Deodex App And Then To Transfer The Completed Files Without Switching Modes. Anytime I Run ADB Operations My Phone Is In PC Mode.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
I will check both settings today. But by mounting the partition, it should become available either way. But we will see.
[Motorola Droid X2] bigfooot:
PC Mode let me run the ADB commands,

successfully copying from the internal sd card.
[Motorola Droid X2] dimitri407:
Can you post all of the adb commands that you used?
[Motorola Droid X2] bigfooot:
Used what was posted here by you

Just tried it in Charge Only Mode and it worked for me there too.

I copied the 2 folders to the internal sd card

then ran thru your commands

The only issue I ran into was when running the last command

"mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system"

came back saying "mount: Device or resource busy"

I waited a few minutes and then entered the reboot command.

Can not explain why it did not work for you, but from what I have seen, it should have.
[Motorola Droid X2] MikeJ92YJ:
The Last Remount Command Is Unnecessary As The System Remounts On Reboot.

is there any android to pc remote controller ? like next pause play for media player ?
[Desire HD General] ukkopaha:
Gmote 2.0 is good one. Works over WiFi.
[Desire HD General] hsncool:
there is one literally called "pc remote controller" lol it lets you see what your doing, which is good

theres also "unified remote" which is good for if your away from your computer but can still see the display. has media features, filemanager...etc, and you hav a multitouch mouse for rightclicking too.

these two, along with gmote, ive used, all through wifi. ive noticed all three tend to drop connection / difficulty connecting in the first place, thats why i had three of them, but this may have been a laptop/network/firewall issue.

(btw, all require you to install the server-side version on the pc, and be running when you want to use it.
[Desire HD General] clouds5:
I use itap mobile touchpad. Works great and offers gestures for two fingers for scrolling and stuff.

It also has a menu thing for volume and player control with pause play mute and stuff. I'm happy with it :-)
[Desire HD General] Elimn8r:
Unified remote is pretty good especially because it has a whole range of remotes for various programs
[Desire HD General] :No-Frost::
I would recommend you XBMC!!!

It's a media center that can be controlled with any android device and play almost every kind of media that I know (mp4, mkv, avi, divx... It even plays img, iso and many more)

Give it a try!!:D

Hey guys, I need help. I rooted my phone which is Lg optimus 2x. And was on MiUI rom, but it keep giving errors and bugs. So I deleted my cache and and wiped out Dalvik Cache and Battery state as well on ClockworkMod. And now I'm stuck on ClockworkMod and I cant boot to MIUI and all my back up are gone. So what I was trying to do is install another rom threw my pc and then with ClockworkMod. But how can I use my SD card when I'm stuck on ClockworkMod?

And I cant boot to Lg optimus 2x original rom either. I also had back ups, but they are all gone. When I boot the phone it says this.

ive done back up with both amon_ra and clockwork... i found the nand. folder to delete back ups.. and found the clockwork folder but cant find where to delete back ups?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
I don't know from experience, but I believe someone said that the ClockworkMod backups were in the "backups" folder inside the Clockwork folder on your SD card. I don't know if the file structure is the same. For Amon Ra, you open the nandroid folder and inside there is a folder with your serial number. You should only have one folder unless you have backups from multiple phones. The individual backups are in individual folders in there, named by date. I move all but the most recent to my computer & delete them. If you're specifically using Amon Ra now, you can probably just delete the entire Clockwork folder. Of course if you want to save them then move them to your computer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcarter2000:
You can use root explorer (paid) or estrongs file explorer(free)

You can't delete them from recovery.

Edit: Well you can if you mount the card through usb while in recovery. Then you could delete it from your computer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrags72:
thx.. i think ill just delete.. if you use clockwork again.. it will just create nuther folder

Be grateful for what you do have. At least you have some signal and the phone still makes calls.

During Katrina, only SMS & Nextel direct connect worked... sporadically. Calling in & out of the 504 area code was impossible. Once I was able to get to Atlanta, I was able to make calls again; though receiving calls was very hit or miss.

[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Hi all,

I've recently S-Offed rooted my Desire S and I noticed something strange with the radio.

Before S-Offing and rooting I had this radio version (which is also in my signature now): 20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M. Now I have this one: 20.28I.30.085AU:3805AU_3805.06.02.03_M, which is of course different from the previous one.

I didn't flash any new radio. Why I can see two different radio versions?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
What version is your ROM? And is this the version that came on the phone?

Settings....about phone.....software info....build number?

Based on the Build number your signature shows you are now on the correct radio, see this thread

Swyped from HTC Desire S using XDA Premium
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Thanks for replying ben_pyett,

The version of my ROM is the one reported in my signature: 1.47.401.4, and yes, it is the version that came on the phone (at least, it should be, since I performed an official upgrade by the phone itself, that brought me the 0.98.0002 hboot).

OK, I didn't notice that!

Anyway, I don't remember what build number I had before the upgrade that changed my hboot from 0.98.0000 to 0.98.0002. In particular if the build number was just 1.28.401.1.

So, the radio I have now is correct and it is still the official one.

Many thanks.

... going to update my signature with the current radio ...
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Looks like the official upgrade you applied updated your ROM, radio and hboot.

Swyped from HTC Desire S using XDA Premium
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
For sure, I didn't check the Build number before the ROM upgrade, and actually the ROM list, shows every ROM with the respective RADIO, and all the things are clear now to me, thanks to your remark.

If you have the status bar burned in the screen and you where using a rom with a black status bar, flash zendroid rom with AOSP theme or bionix frost. The white theme won't erase the burn in but it'll even it out.

Has anyone noticed an issue when connecting a USB, Headphone or HDMI cable to the D3, where the touch screen doesn't respond properly?

I had the same issue with the DX when I upgraded it to Gingerbread and the DX2. When plugging in a cable (even brand new cables), the touch screen doesnt want to respond. To use the touch screen, I have to unplug it first.

Since this is the 4th phone I have had this issue and it "seems" to have started with my DX when upgrading to Gingerbread, I wonder if it is a Gingerbread issue?
[Motorola Droid 3] bishop0114:
So no one else has noticed this issue? It is really irritating. I had the same issue with the DX/DX2 desktop dock. I had the dock replaced with the D3 desktop dock and have the same issue!

As soon as I dock, the screen doesnt want to respond correctly to touch. The car dock seems to work fine though.

I'm having the same problem and it was there pre and post root. When I am in HDMI mode, the screen is very laggy and sometimes completely unresponsive. If I unplug the HDMI the issue immediately resolves.

[Motorola Droid 3] bishop0114:
I have the issue with every charger except my car chargers... I also notice the problem if I plug into the headphone jack or HDMI port.

With the Droid X and X2, I had a similar issue (3 different phones) but with the Droid 3, I notice that not only does it not want to respond but it responds as if I touched somewhere else... It even responds as if I touched the screen when I am not even near the phone...

I took it in to Verizon and surprising enough, I was told it was normal!!!! Augh...
[Motorola Droid 3] g3m1n1:
I do not have this issue. Just tried headphones, wall charger, and USB to my laptop and the screen was just as responsive as when the phone is unplugged. If you can narrow down a pattern I will gladly test more situations.
[Motorola Droid 3] ps6000:
I noticed this when I was plugged into a brookstone international adapter that has a usb charger. Plugged into an old BB charger or my stock and it worked fine.

Actually I was in a bed and breakfast and my phone started to work on its own. Like it was haunted!!! Really crazy. I was able to repeat it everytime I connected this charger.
[Motorola Droid 3] ShortChop:
Have you tried a different setups then the ones you use? Like at a buddies or neighbor? If the issue following you around it could be a sign. As a former poster said with the charger cables the touchscreen goes crazy. I had a cheap charger that froze/slowed up my screen. I think it may be a grounding/noise issue (from a laymen not an EE).
[Motorola Droid 3] rayofnope:
HDMI

I've had issues with the HDMI cable plugged in. The video doesn't seem to be a problem, but the sound is very choppy on my HDTV. This was the case with both my wife's and my D3. I wonder if it is a setting on the phone or my 42" JVC TV is a POS. :D
[Motorola Droid 3] bishop0114:
I just had my D3 replaced due to an issue with the GPS. The replacement has the same issue. As soon as I plug it into any charger, the touch screen starts acting flaky.

When I plug it into my desktop dock (with or without power), the screen starts acting as if I had been pressing it and selects random things on the screen.

I have found that if I push a USB plug tight into the charging socket on the phone, the screen works fine.

Is it possible that Android 2.3 uses the extra pins in the USB and HDMI cables? If so, can this be disabled?
[Motorola Droid 3] slow88lx:
Use the cable and charger that came with your phone, if you're still having problems after that then you have an actual problem.
