could be a WHILE!!

lol no one even has a clue. all we know is a few people are looking into it. with HTC having a stick up there *** and not releasing the GB kernal/rom we are stuck waiting.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evil_DevNull:
no, you need full root

See http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=936
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
So I was in g2x forum, and they said you can flash a recovery without root. Then with recovery you can flash a rom.

Don't know if it works like that with our phones though.

Completely different phone. Perm rooting is dependant on the hardware's boot loader security. With the GB update on the shift hboot got updated and changed the security.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbirth:
My unrooted(!) Nexus One shows 2 different memory readings since a few days.

The system reports 22MB available (shown in e.g. SystemPanel, or when entering the application manager) but after the application manager finishes counting, the reading jumps to 32MB available. A reboot doesn't change anything.

See the attached images.

Is there any explanation to this? How can I fix this?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxiuz:
A friend of me professionally demolished my DHD's screen. I brought it to my supplier (Vodafone NL) and they sent it to a repair centre (private company) and now its back. I had root acces, Honeysense, PVT SHIP S-OFF etc. but they applied an update.

I had clockworkmod recovery flashed before in case of emergency but I can't boot in the orange-white interface anymore. Normally its the annoying mistake when you leave your cable plugged in.

However I did some googling and found a movie of how the HBOOT recovery works (its the one from HTC isn't it?)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucBs9RVGL0w

Now, is it possible to flash a new rom on my DHD which seems to have the same HBOOT as the desire in the movie? I think I should wipe both data and cache and then 'apply update' and select the ROM but don't know for sure.

Normally I would use rom manager but it requires root and I dont have it. Or is there another way to flash a new ROM from HBOOT?

Status of my DHD currently :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsdta:
You have a few options so take your pick.

1) since your still soff you can flash the downgrade rom pd98img through hboot and reroot. Install cwr. Etc

2. I have a file on my laptop (pd98img) that will flash cwr for you. Note not my creation all credit goes to gene Poole.

3. If available you can flash a prerooted stock pd98img. I quickly glanced through the Dev section and didn't see one, but if you already have one or know where to look that's another option

no hay de queso no mas de papa

edit here is the PD98IMG for flashing CWR. just rename and flash through hboot. then you can flash a rom
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MicBoef:
Or u root your phone again...;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxiuz:
Yeah, don't know whats the fastest way. It was a hell to gain root on my 2.2 Froyo.

I prefer to flash Clockworkmod recovery and then flash any ROM i like. However, since the CWM-Recovery is not really a part of the ROM i want to know why the hell it got removed at the 'software-upgrade' (it was a downgrade actually) at HTC.

Im downloading the attached file right now and i got a zip.

I have to flash it with the option mentioned in my OP (as in: boot into bootloader, Recovery, flash upgrade and then select the ZIP) right?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsdta:
It gets removed when an ruu is flashed. During the repair they probably flashed the ruu as a normal practice on all phones.

So download the zip file, rename to pd98img, flash through bootloader. Reboot into bootloader select recovery and flash your rom.

If you do go the route of rerooting, its easier this time around because you already have soff. So you would just have to downgrade and run visionary

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parva4:
In a CMD shell you need to add "Path C:\Android-sdk\Platform-Tools" (or whatever the correct path is to that folder where you installed it) then try again.

Alternatively, download Android Flasher (search these forums) and run the commands from the folder that contains ADB and Fastboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salahzantout:
what are the adb scripts, i keep seeing posts talking about them, all i know is that i installed two files one named android sdk windows and the other installer r12 windows
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Go to c:\android-sdk\tools folder, copy "fastboot.exe" and paste it into c:\android-sdk\platform-tools.

Then before issuing fastboot commands type

cd c:\android-sdk\platform-tools

Once you've done that and want to flash the hboot, put it in your c:\ For simplicity and type

fastboot flash hboot c:\bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img
Fastboot reboot bootloader
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parva4:
If you're really stuck go here :- http://alpharev.nl/ and download the PB99IMG file instead. Rename this to PB99IMG.zip and save it to the root of your SD card. Restart your phone in recovery (vol down + power) and it should flash it for you. Been a long time since I did it that way so I invite anyone to correct me. :)

Edit: Please delete the PB99IMG.zip file once flashed else it will re-flash it everytime you enter recovery.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sherwood1:
Battery freezes on a certain % may or may not be fully charged. Mine after unplugging and plugging finaly showed 100%

When charging ...screen is not very responsive.

3rd bug i noticed BLUR still sux. Makes phone feel slower than my Incredible 2.

Dont see myself keeping this device.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Berzerker7:
1. Not getting that freezing percentage...

2. Screen is completely responsive for me during charging.

3. The GB Blur has *actually* impressed me. The launcher feels smooth and I actually like the Blur widgets...call me crazy.

Try rebooting the phones, battery pulls, or charging from an outlet instead of a computer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bblanski:
I am with you. No issues so far!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] :
Mine has been plugged into a charger (not a USB port) for 5 hours. Started at 40% and has maxed at 60%. When I get home I'm going to go ahead and shut her down and try a different charger. May be some funky batteries. Nothing else has bothered me (and to tell the truth I've been messing around with it every 10 minutes so it may actually be charging!)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cstrife999:
I'm thinking you have a bad phone... Mine is fine, but that being said I never even opened the standard battery just used extended one.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
This^^^^

:)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bblanski:
You gonna do some magic on this thing?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
I am... One thing I just noticed is that the launcher is NOT tied to the widgets with blur. I am running ADW EX and I can still use the Blur Software and widgets.

That's sweet.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bblanski:
Cool. I usually use adw ex but was just testing the stock launcher out!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
Usually any Home Replacement nukes that stuff. May be a good sign the Blur is not dug in as deep.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] suzook:
ROOT, Debloat, use a new launcher.....and BAM! New speedy phone! Trust me, it make a world of difference.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bblanski:
I did hear they were make changes to it so this should be good..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sherwood1:
Blur is improved but still garbage..... one thing i will say is RECEPTION is the best i ever had!!!!

My incredible 2 sucked.... this is getting amazing reception. Thats why i got it. Moto is great there.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] theproj:
So far the only "bug" I have found is reception/signal strength is crappy. With my Bolt I was able to get 4g in my home and 4g at work. At my desk now I get no signal (Bolt 4g 1-2 bars), on my drive home tends to drop to 3g often (bolt stays on 4g), and at home 3g only one bar (bolt 4g 2 bars). :(

I really am begging to like the Bionic love having the moto keyboard back but the radio is making me hesitate keeping it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Superguy:
I'll second this. Reception has been fantastic for me as well. Significantly better than the Incredible and Fascinate I used prior to this. Moto always has had good reception IME. Some of the best.

I just really, really, don't like this screen. I'm spoiled coming off of Super AMOLED from Samsung. It's not as bad as others I've seen in my day, but I certainly expected better from a flagship phone.

Aside from that and a locked boot loader, the phone's actually pretty good. Love the LTE speeds and how snappy it is.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eagle17:
Have to agree.. in my house going between my tbolt and bionic I get consistanly better 4g reception witht he tbolt.. (running shifttheory :) thanks droidtheory)

I was thinking maybe it was the rainstorms here but after moving the sim back to the tbolt that is not the case.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eagle17:
well after checking the status in the phone they are both around the same dec... -88 to -91.. in the same location.. however the tbolt shows more bars...

Also I do notice that the speed seems to be a little better on the bionic...

now if a decent theory rom could come out for this... :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Mustang02:
You can't judge by bars. Some Roms show different bar ratings than stock.

I'm getting about the same reception between the two.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] AvatarOfFrost:
Thanks for the heads up! I was hesitant to install any custom launcher because I didn't want to lose the widgets.

Cool!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tbgreen89:
Anybody having vibrate issues? Mine was fine and now it sounds like crap. Very annoying and noisy. Kinda hard to explain.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dstroo2012:
So i just had my bionic just randomly shut off.....wouldnt start back up had to pull the battery. 15 minutes later went to check it and it had shut off again had to pull the battery. Im already running launcher pro and loving it. Besides the battery percent issue and the random crashes its great haha
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Guyinlaca:
Yes, the vibrate on my phone makes an annoying buzzing sound (almost a chewbacca like reverberation). I'm not sure if it's normal. It's not smooth like the Droid X was.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tct08:
Your ROMs on the Bolt were amazing! Would love to see your work here.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] azshorty2003:
Phone is fast, reception is great. Extended battery works just fine. Not sure how I feel about the screen yet, camera seems blurry. Overall I like it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Brad003:
I have loaded up this phone with all the apps I was using on the original droid. Seems to be working well.

I do have a small issue that I'm still trying to figure out. I have a screen lock pattern set, but with it set, there's also a slide to unlock screen which is annoying. This morning, I slid to unlock and it bypassed the screen pattern lock. I ended up having to restart the phone and now it works. I have noticed a few minor things, but nothing major YET....*Fingers Crossed*
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Topher227:
My issues so far...

-I feel like colors are very washed out. For example if i load up Foursquare, the title bar looks green rather than blue. I put my tbolt next to the bionic there is a completely clear difference. (Is this a pentile display 'feature'? or do i possibly have a broken phone?? If its a 'feature'.... it MAY be a deal breaker for me)

-BT A2DP seems to skip a little too often, this may have been a one time thing... we'll see.

-When connected to WiFi, my data doesnt disable?? (meaning right now i see wifi bars and 4GLTE) Isn't it supposed to disable??

-Camera lags a lot!!!! (or i'm doing something wrong...)

-Verizon Kickstand Cover (one that holds the ext battery) is a little too thick... not a phone problem... but just sayin

What I Love:

-Screen size is awesome

-Build quality is excellent

-Battery life seems good so far (using standard batt)

-Thin!

-Still thin with extended battery!

-Reception is AWESOME!

-Surprisingly, i like BLUR. Its pretty nice.

-Much faster 4GLTE speeds than my tbolt
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Brad003:
My issue is fixed...noob status with the Bionic to blame... why is my autocorrect not working with typing?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Pitnefor:
one thing that happened after i got it was, the battery didnt report correctly (it said 50% at the time) and my phone was acting weird.. it wouldnt go to data mode (3g) and so i powered it down. I tried to reboot it but it wouldnt start. I pluged it in and it said it was at 0%. i had to charge it for 5-10min before i could boot it
[Motorola Droid Bionic] devanmc:
it has blur, which is the worst bug of all.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] enigmaisdead:
If you mean setting it to automatically correct words as you type, it's turned off by default. Settings > Language & keyboard > Multi-touch keyboard settings > Auto-correct errors
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tbgreen89:
Glad im not the only one. The key vibrate seems to be fine. But when the actual phone is set to vibrate only its really annoying.

Anybody else notice this? Is this how they are or is this a defect?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] devanmc:

[Motorola Droid Bionic] mngdew:

[Motorola Droid Bionic] DroidTh3ory:
I can't wait either... If the way a basic debloat with a few build.prop tweaks can run the way it runs, I can imagine what she can do when we can really dig into it.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] bblanski:

[Motorola Droid Bionic] mrlinch:
I've noticed this as well but just chalk it up to the way the vibrate works in this phone. I agree with Guyinlaca that the X was much smoother, but eh, it's there and does its job.

Although, for some reason, all my notification vibrations don't work anymore. I had some trouble with my Notification LED (ie case covering it up) and played around with a lot of notification apps and wondering if some setting didn't get reverted. In the sound settings, vibrate is set to always. I'm also using Lightflow for the LED and think it might be some interference there, but when I disable Lightflow or uninstall, vibrate notifications still don't work... Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sethdood:
I definitely have a couple of bugs to report. All are centered around blur and the car dock.

Car dock is a bug nightmare afaik-

While running nav and music, txt comes in. Music stops. Phone gives option to read txt with tts, or dismiss. Does not recognize any verbal dismiss command, just sits there like an idiot. Hit dismiss, the phone will leave you with your txt inbox open instead of going back to nav, and the music is off.

Also in car dock mode, tried to send a verbal txt. Yay, it worked. About 5 times in a row, with the same message. As I was driving, trying to send a second speech-to-txt to the same recipient, whenever I would cancel sending (because it misheard), it would stupidly send that initial text that worked. Had to pull over, get it out of the car dock and type the text in.

Still in car dock mode, blur struck again. See, I've downloaded and installed Google Music from the market to replace the crappy blur player. All seemed fine, so I used root uninstaller to freeze the blur player. Everything was still fine, until the dreaded car dock mode. Their badly coded interface seems to be hardcoded to the blur music player, no matter what music player is set as default on the phone. So, it crashed the whole cardock mode. Realizing this, I unfroze the blur music player, thinking that would fix the problem. LOLno, all it did was stop it from crashing. The phone will start playing a song on the blur player, and after any interruption (text notification, nav instructions) will resume playing a different song in the google music player. Have to use fingers while driving to navigate back to the dock homescreen, hit accept on that stupid message for the millionth time, click music, and hit play again. It then stop the other song, and resumes playing the correct one. In the crappy blur player I don't want.

Someone please replace this whole thing in a ROM. It's going to make me crash on purpose.

I got a postpaid agreement on my Samsung Galaxy S which allows me to send 60 sms and call 120 minutes for free but after those 60 sms and 120 mins are used up i have to pay.

So i want to know is there any app for Android which can show me how many minutes i have called total? By this i do not mean that it should should show me the call duration but to show me how many minutes i have called total starting from a specific date.

So we know sense 3.5 has been ported and is "out there". It's been proven to be problematic getting all the kinks ironed out...anyone care to elaborate or build upon what knowledge thus far?
[EVO 4G General] doejohn:
I tried it yesterday, Wifi was not working, devs are working on it. Around 90mb free memory after install without sd partition. Will be better after partition.

Good news is has a fancy home screen and all. Looks very pretty. Very unique widgets for sms, mail etc.

I am waiting for the stable release.
[EVO 4G General] Art2Fly:
3.5 was made so that older phones, like ours could run the newest version of sense smoothly. No matter what you do on any of the 3.0 roms, it doesnt run smoothly because its not optimized for our phones. 3.5 was made to run using less system resouces and because of that, runs way smoother on our phones compared to 3.0, plus it looks prettier too. With that being said, Wifi doesnt work, bluetooth doesnt work, MMS doesnt work, SMS splitting is broken using stock sms app (use handecent for better results). These things are due to the rom port itself, since the code came from a gsm phone, not a cdma phone like ours. Devs are working hard though.
[EVO 4G General] mentaldelusions:

[EVO 4G General] Art2Fly:
