Unfortunately, looks that way. Eric's update page says:

AT&T: ***Delivery has begun for the HTC Surround, LG Quantum, and Samsung Focus v. 1.3. The HTC HD7S is currently Scheduling, while the Samsung Focus v. 1.4 is Testing and the Dell Venue Pro is in Planning.

http://mango.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/features/update-schedule-usa.aspx?pf=true

Looks like DVP is bottom of the priority list for AT&T's testing process. Perhaps it's a less popular carrier / device combination than the others, so ends up at the bottom of AT&T's pile.
[Venue Pro General] Plazma1:
I'm in Canada on mobilicity with a dvp from the States. The second I plugged my phone in last night Zune told me about the update.

Super easy

I'm in Mango :) That helped: http://www.wpcentral.com/force-mang...ne-software?utm_source=wpc&utm_medium=twitter
[Venue Pro General] occpimpin:
thanks volocha that tricked worked for me updating now
[Venue Pro General] Noticed:
Are the DVP specific drivers installed?

The "Compass 7" App is not working, and i can't log in to hidden Wlan.

Current firmware on my Phone after Mango-Update (forced) is 2250.1800.7720.219

How do you kow if your device is sim-locked? If you bought it from the Dell webiste as an added line or upgrade? Is there a way to unlock it?
[Venue Pro General] venelar:
Added line/upgrade would be sim locked to at&t.
[Venue Pro General] DVP_AU:
I've meanwhile tried about a hundred times to force the Mango update by disabling the internet as recommended by the various sources, however without success.

Does this only work when your in the US? I'm overseas, though I have an unlocked DVP from T-Mobile....

Anyone got any smart ideas? I'm desperate to get Mango ASAP ;-)
[Venue Pro General] woodman411:
I'm in the US with DVP unlocked on t-mobile, I've tried about 50 times now with all types of disconnect timing, and no luck.
[Venue Pro General] woodman411:
Spoke too soon, I just got it working following a suggestion from a post on wpcentral. That post suggested a 2-second rule for timing the internet disconnect. More specifically, the time it takes between clicking on "update" and getting the "your phone is up to date" message, subtract 2 seconds as the disconnect point. For example, if it takes 10 seconds to get the message, you would disconnect the internet next time at the 8 second point.

For me, it only took just over 3 seconds for the message to show up, so the next time I clicked on update, I disconnected a little over 1 second and voila. Hope it works for you.
[Venue Pro General] DVP_AU:
Lifesaver :-) Following your suggestion, I got the update working, next round of drinks is on me!
[Venue Pro General] Noticed:
Does the Compass work on your devices?
[Venue Pro General] citrix80:
anybody received the update?

I just checked today. no update. :mad:
[Venue Pro General] woodman411:
Did you try the 2-second disconnect (see previous post)?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vb87:
The problem I'm experiencing is that I am not receiving push notifications of any kind while my phone is locked/sleeping (screen off) on my wifi network at work.

My home wifi network and mobile connection have no such problems, i get the notifications instantly. My wifi is set to never sleep.

I do get the notifications a couple of seconds after I unlock my phone though. Not very useful because I have to keep checking my phone. :(

Not sure if this has anything to do with it but my home network is WEP secured and work is WPA/WPA2 secured.

Anybody have any ideas what could be causing this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastracer:
Has anyone come up with any suggestions on this? I've been having this and can't figure it out :-(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTContent:
My guess is that your work network blocks those ports (not sure what they are).

Edit: I had a quick look and saw its port 5228

Thanks for the info. I'm on a home router...Belkin N300...anything i can do? I had a 2wire dsl router....no problems....also used a linksys wrt54g no problems....just bought this router...all 3 phones lose data now....disabled firewall in router....losing my mind lol. Any other help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTContent:
If you go into your router settings there should be an option somewhere to open up additional ports. (typically 192.168.0.1 in a Web browser) Just have a look online to make sure the port your opening for Android is correct, I only had a very quick look.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Thrilla:
The most of you know that you need HTC sync for sharing your PC´s internet connection with your phone.

But HTC sync is only brought out on Windows and Mac.

I made about two months ago the big step to become free from Windows.

Ubuntu 11.04 became the only OS on my system and to be honest I never want to go back.

Still learning new things every day and still haven´t got everything working as it should be. Mainly videocard driver issues are driving me nuts.

But still I fell absolutely in love with the fact that I have total control over my OS.

Now I found a tutorial that you can use to reverse usb-tethering on a blog.

http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html

I followed this tutorial bit by bit 3 times now but I cant make it to work.

So I got a feeling that maybe its not possible to do it on a sense rom.

Really want to make this to work without installing Windows again.

I know that its possible to dual-boot but out of principle I just dont want to do that.

Its the Ubuntu way or no way at all.

Can somebody maybe give their thoughts on this.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Terepin:
Use Windows. Fixed.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Thrilla:
I want to thank you for your reply but I can´t because I don´t think you actually read my post.

I want to stay ¨windows-less¨ for as long as possible. I made the choice to make the deep dive in to the world of Linux.

I feel if I really want to understand the inner-workings off Linux then I need to stick with it no matter what.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Have you tested using HTC sync with Wine?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Thrilla:
Sorry for posting this in the wrong section.

I tried this and I manage to get HTC sync running on Ubuntu but it won´t detect my phone.

I´m first gonna try running HTC-Sync on an other Windows PC(feel like I already lost a battle) because I have never tried HTC-Sync before. I want to see if it goes really that easy on Windows.

Like I said I´m a newcomer when it comes to Linux. I will not give up on this and I will let you now if I made any progress.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Dont feel like you lost. HTC Sync barely works and detects phones on Windows either. I'll quite openly say that its a piece of crap.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Thrilla:
I just found that out now , I can´t even detect my phone on a Windows XP sp3 machine. Even with all the security turned off and I went even through all the running services and looked if something was interfering.

The thing is I don´t really need it but when I put my head to something I can´t let it go. So I have to make it to work and I will..... one day

I´m gonna stick with Ubuntu for now but it seems I have to dig a bit deeper then I expected. Will give it another shot tomorrow.

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
First off, Thanks to Google/Android, XDA Developers, Virtuous Doubleshot, other Android posts, which got me to this.

Virtuous Doubleshot released for Glacier & Vision, both support home screen landscape version. Rosie.apk is same for both the versions, but it is hardware keyboard driven, so it doesn't work on ur HTC Glacier/myTouch 4G.

Here is how U do it:

1. Take a backup of ur /system/app/Rosie.apk. Pull the Rosie.apk to ur host PC.

2. Using apktool, decompile** the Rosie.apk. (apktool d -f -t glacier Rosie.apk)

3. Open Rosie/AndroidManifest.xml & replace all "nosensor" to "sensor".

4. Using apktool, recompile the Rosie.apk. (apktool b Rosie Roise.apk)

5. After this, you need to sign the apk & zipalign it. Done, good to go...!!!

6. Mount ur /system read-write.

7. Push back the signed version of Rosie.apk to /system/app.

8. Reboot (probably not necessary. but it will be clean setup i thought).

**-> U might get some errors at step 2, to fix that,

1. pull com.htc.resources.apk & framework-res.apk from the device or ur Virtuous Doubleshot.

2. Add these resources to apktool base.

(apktool if com.htc.resources.apk glacier)

(apktool if framework-res.apk glacier)

3. Now continue with Step 3 & 4. It should work fine.

I was able to do this & it worked pretty well. Just remember, I tried this not to publish but to put it on my phone, so if you end up bricking(highly impossible i think), or losing data(again, i dint face this), I don't take any responsibility.

Moreover, you may not be able to do this on other ROM releases for myTouch 4G. This can only be done on the ROM ports which have landscape support, technically speaking, Rosie.apk must have landscape resources under Rosie/res/. Otherwise it will not work!

Hope its useful, Im posting this bcoz I googled a lot for myTouch 4G/Glacier HomeScreen rotation/landscape support etc & there wasn't even a single post yet.

*** one last thing, my original Rosie.apk was ~21MB, but the recompiled version is 3.2MB. I don't know why, please let me know if you know why. But the 3.2MB recompiled version seem to work fine!!!

** best, after reading developer.android.com, found tat u can rather use "user" instead of "sensor", this will b more user friendly. if u disable auto rotation in settings -> display, home screen will not rotate for "user", but for "sensor", its forced.. ur phone, ur call..
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Tried the same procedure for Phone.apk/HTCContacts.apk/HTCDialer.apk, but not much of use. Dialer wont rotate landscape. Contacts also, only if u select a contact, it will rotate for tat contact. I wish Contacts/Dialer rotated landscape, especially if u r connected using headset, u dont need to rotate phone portrait to answer/make calls, right! Help me, if u figure out a way to make those apps landscape.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
Would you be willing to post a working version? I'm willing to try it, I just don't have access to those tools.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Absolutely!! Try this upload. (pull your original Rosie.apk, to revert if u have to).

I changed to Virtuous Unity 2.35 yesterday.. Tough to make tat landscape. :(
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] AndrewAD3:
Thanks. Will try this out.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] coupetastic-droid:
The uploded rosie.apk just fc's the device when device is rebooted.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
Mmm...are you running the double shot ROM?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] AndrewAD3:
I used your apk. It worked perfectly! Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
Yup. It is working beautifully on mine as well. Btw, I am running the eng bootloader.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
Hey. You should pass this info on to evil d. Maybe he can make it part of the ROM, either an updated ROM or just a patch.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
Do you have the stock hboot or eng hboot? I have the engineering hboot.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
sorry. I quoted my response instead of editing it. This is me fixing it.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Thanks a lot. I'm new to xda & this is my first post, so no idea ow to pass this info to evil D. If U know ow to pass this info to Virtuous Doubleshot dev team, plz lemme know.

Thanx.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Is it? Sorry!

Can u share ur stock Rosie.apk? Also, share ur com.htc.resources.apk, framework-res.apk, u can find them under /system/framework. Or try this, open ur stock Rosie.apk using winzip/winrar & check if u av "assets/land" or "asset/land" folder, if u don't, u probably cant use this mod.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
I just posted a link to this thread in the virtuous Doubleshot thread telling them about it. You can try that and maybe offer up the same file you posted here.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] coupetastic-droid:
Sorry guys I thought it was for any rom. I'm not running doubleshot sorry.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Nyway U shud try Virtuous Doubleshot...
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Thank U. Just did. Hope to c it included in d next release. lol. (Damn.. Y m i limited to only 5 "Thanks" hits per day.. :( :( )
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] coupetastic-droid:
I did. Was running it for a week. Didn't like the mysense look that much and that it didn't have shortcuts in the lockscreen. So I stuck with vu.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Makes sense. But rest of the UI is just mind blowing. Nobody released a lockscreen UI to allow shortcuts??? VU is awesome too. Thanks to all these Great ppl bringing out new ROMs each day & porting them all to Glacier.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bigwillyg:
Congrats to the OP! You made it in the new update for virtuous Doubleshot.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] phanirvcse:
Not without your help, Thank you! Thanks to eVil D: for considering it!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mastaglaus:
Thanks for your work in getting this to the new update of Double Shot. Beautiful!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themsn:
i have a problem where my screen doesn't work and only a white screen shows up.

So I can't see the viewsonic birds or the picture when the tablet boots up or anything.

even going into CWM only shows the white screen.

I had the problem before but it went away when setCPU force closed. so I thought it was because the tablet didn't like being overclocked.

but now the problem has come up again.

I tried to go into CWM and do a restore by guessing the number of times to scroll down to "restore" and stuff, but that's almost impossible going blind like that.

Does anyone else have this problem?

and even better yet, does anyone else have a solution?

I've even tried to NVflash it, thinking it may go back to the original kernel and fix the screen, but that didn't do it either (actually only put me in a boot loop: which goes from white screen to dark screen and back to white screen. I figure the bootloop is because I was on bootloader 1.2 and nvflashed a 1.1 accidentally).

So any help would be greatly appreciated!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
Normally caused by a loose video cable inside the tablet. Did you drop or jar the tablet? Try lightly tapping corner to see it changes, otherwise you would have to open the tab & reconnect. See theses posts http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12254692&postcount=12 & here's a picture http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13962001&postcount=20
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themsn:
ahhh.. thank you!

didn't drop the tablet though... :P

the tapping didn't work, so I guess I need to open this thing up.... :I
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
Or if under warranty you can request an RMA.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themsn:
thank you again. the problem was exactly as the 2nd post (one with the picture) you linked for me described.

the display ribbon/cable below the first board was just slightly pulled out. So I pushed it back in gently with a flat head screw driver.

but taking that first board off to get to the ribbon below was nerve wracking. You have to disconnect so many different other ribbons and wires!

anyway. thank you so much for the tip.

now I'm just regretting the nvflash because I have to go back and reinstall my custom rom back to the way I like it now... :P
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electrocutioner:
Thanks for the info!

Had to crack my case-couldnt really tell if the connector was loose under the board but I used my plastic case cracker aka credit card to push the base in and it sure seemed to do the trick....

just wish i hadnt nvflashed a pretty stable flashback setup...oh well time to try something new on :)
[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
Not sure what I could have done but since yesterday my battery life has been nuts. I installed and am using a livewallpaper but that's it. Phone has been on for 5 days and it just got better yesterday. Is it even possible that lwp could help battery life?

Doing well today too will post screenshot later on. I've been using it as normal so its not due to change in usage at all. Again the only link I can find is the lwp!!
[HTC Sensation] austendale9:
Wow. That's amazing! Wish I got that kind of usage!!
[HTC Sensation] tacklebury87:
I'm pretty sure live wallpaper won't be saving you battery, having a constant animation on your background is only going to increase your CPU load and RAM usage, which will surely impact on your battery life.

What ROM/ kernal are you using?
[HTC Sensation] Jork15xa:
I wish my phone would do that too, I need to charged it everyday.

I knew it was going to be like this before i got it, but sometimes is just annoying.
[HTC Sensation] neo0815:
Since i have my acer iconia a500 my sensation lasts 2 days with 1 charge :-)
[HTC Sensation] alyoder:
One of the most effective things I have ever done for battery life is, after the first full drain/charge Calibration I did four more full drain/full charges before using normally. Then I remained patient with imperfect battery life until those steps were done.

Battery life is great.
[HTC Sensation] mic180:
Jealous!

Wish I got those kind of results. After the update to 2.3.4 my battery life has been terrible and nothing I seem to do is helping

It simply looks like you've been on wifi a lot. It's known that being on wifi puts A LOT LESS strain on your battery than does using the network.

Same here battery life is not as good as expected but I guess there's not much we can do, either buy a much bigger capacity battery or be contended with what the stock could offer.

This is what I have now. With just casual texting and facebook, auto sync is off on all accounts except weather for the widget , no games.
