[G2 and Desire Z General] corster:
I'm having a really strange issue with my G2.

The screen will not turn on unless i'm booted in to Android (i'm running Virtuous Unity, probably the first or second build but i'm not sure exactly which one. Have been holding off on upgrading to a newer build due to this issue but can't take it anymore).

My screen no longer turns on at the boot screen (so I don't see the green HTC logo on a white background when I turn my phone on), no longer see the screen when trying to load into Clockwork Mod either (doing an adb devices command confirms the phone is in recovery, but the screen does not turn on so I can't see it).

Really am at a loss as for what to do. Don't think the screen itself is busted because if it was, it wouldn't work when the phone is booted into Android.

The latest 2 ROMs released by coolexe seems to use a differnt compress mechanism. I used to be able to add/delete files using WinRAR, but no longer able to do that. Could anyone share the info. so I know which utility to use to add/delete files?

Hey guys, ShootMe is now unavailable in the market. I've started seeing more people looking for it, so here it is!

I take no credit for this, since brandond15 posted this. I decided to put this here so it'll be more accessible!

Be sure to thank him!

On a side note, I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to do this... If I'm not, please feel free to close this thread. :x

I decided to look up this app on google, and I happened to come across a ShootMe 0.8.1 on the Infuse 4g forum. Would there be any problems downloading and installing that version on this phone?

I'm a sucker for the latest versions of things >_>

Shouldn't be a problem. It's just an app.

Car stereo has bluetooth. I finally hooked up a microphone so it's usable in the car for making calls. When I place a call everything works fine, but when I receive a call I can't hear the caller, although they can hear me fine.

Anyone else experience this and find a fix?

Running the latest official AT&T release with no modifications.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosdefinesorder:
Yes, I keep finding this myself and I have discovered the "problem" and solution

Basically, any incoming calls default to handset speaker and you have to manually tap "bluetooth" to transfer the call to the headset/handsfree. When making outgoing calls, it defaults to Bluetooth from the offset so no problem!:rolleyes:

What I do not know, however, is how to force it to default to Bluetooth on incoming call... :(
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
I have not seen that issue and I use BT in my car a lot. BB351
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosdefinesorder:
Something else that could be the case: Are you listening to music through A2DP bluetooth at the time that the call comes in? It's possible that the transition from A2DP to headset protocol is what is "blocking" the call from going straight to the handsfree?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
chaosdefinesorder is correct, you could have a misbehaving music app (or any other app with audio over bluetooth, such as navigation).

I know that PowerAmp and Playerpro both work well with bluetooth with the music stopping when a call comes in.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mid_life_crisis:
I was listening to FM radio at the time. When the call ends it always go back to whatever I was listening to.

So next time I should tap the phone button on the radio instead of sliding the button on the phone, apparently.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mid_life_crisis:
This was it. I have to answer the head unit, not the phone.

[Droid X General] Sammy83:
Hey there,

a friend of mine has a big problem with her Droid X.

She installed vTok and after that her phone was like frozen.

She wasn't able to start any app or to access the phone settings.

We've done a factory reset and reboots but still no access to system settings.

She can start Apps but they close after a few seconds.

She is running the latest Stock ROM.

Any ideas how we can set it back to default?

Thanks in advance.

3 when i call some one, sounds is really really really really distorted or somtimes the phone just crashes?

so whats the problem?

how much to get em both fixed?

can i do it myself
[HD2 General] ionbasa:
You possible have damaged the actual pcb of the hd2. Your only luck is getting it a an authorized repair shop or to RMA it.
[HD2 General] Ken C:
Wish I could remember where I saw it. But there's a site out there that has teardowns of a bunch of phones
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:

Depends on damage and where you go.

If you need to ask that question, the answer is no.

also whats the the price if i get tmobile to do it?
[HD2 General] ionbasa:

I don't know how much it costs, but I believe you have to send it to htc, not t-mobile. just call (from a land-line) and ask how much it costs.
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
Im not posting to help you, but rather to inform you how wrong your title is.

Your title does not describe your/part of your problem. Thus you're violating the rules of this forum.

Despite the breaking of rules, you aren't paying us .. Your title is just .. disrespectful (at least to me) .

Thank you !
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
Agreed.

He is simply one of these XDA n00bs who comes here with the false impression that XDA is tech support for their manufacturers device. This is blatant from his title where we are "letting him down" if we do not answer.

I am using Launcher Pro, and I like how in the folder widgets it can scroll up and down, but you cannot organize the icons in the order you want. Launch-X Pro does the scrolling exactly how I'd like, with the ability to organize icons and even resize them, but it can only go 4x2 and I'd like the option of the whole page. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] GuestK00450:
I am planning on buying one, but $30 seems a lot for something if it is not reusable. Is it possible to wash it after it gets dirty and stick it back on? Will it still stick to the screen?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] 3_D:
From the SGP Website:

Q) Are the Glas Screen Protectors re-usable?

A) No, you cannot use it again once you take the Glas Screen Protector off from your mobile device.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dragonthl:
I think if you take off it careful and stick it on somewhere clean, it can reuse.

You should try it and tell me.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] GuestK00450:
That's a rip off then. $31.99 for something which you can't even fix if you apply it wrong the first time?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] IIIPowerIII:
Then take your time when you'll install it... It's way easier to install than a normal screen protector.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rogconnect:
I brought the black one and I removed it because of dust under it. The black sticky glue came off. It's a ripped off. But I managed to return it for full refund. I think that SGP products are overpriced.

And I don't the fact that the Samsung logo is covered by the Glas.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Touchwiz 4.0
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Disfected:
It's pretty hard to screw up installing it unless your really rushing it. Plus I really enjoy the fact that the Samsung logo is hidden, makes it all the more immersive when I'm watching videos.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cr0wnest:
If you remove it very carefully, yes. Thats what i did for mine. However you'll likely damage the coloring/adhesive because of the removal triangle tool.

Sorry if this is posted somewhere. I'm using tapatalk and can't search for threads. I looked manually but didn't see it.

My 3VO won't download anything on WiFi when the screen is off. I downloaded spare parts and the sleep policy is set to never. Not sure about 3g downloads. Only really conserned about WiFi when downloading big games I don't want to leave the screen on the whole time.

Thanks for any help
[HTC EVO 3D] aramova:
Try

Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Wifi Settings -> Tap the Menu button then tap Advanced -> Wifi Sleep Policy -> Never when plugged in is a good option if you want to download at home. I also use Best Wifi Performance

if using wifi, then before enabling wifi, turm on mobile data, then enable and connect wifi then disable mobile data and try to download:)
[LG Optimus 2x] lintz:
Please specify the problem a bit more.

If you mean that everything you try to download fail. Tell us if its on wifi, or over 3g if you are on the move (for example car, bus, boat etc) or if you are standing still.

If its over wifi.

Make sure that the wifi don't turn off while the screen goes into idle.

If its over 3G.

Go to a place where you have full reception.

Contact your carrier and complain.

Try another browser.

Try another file.

Ether way please specify the problem as much as you can.

In case you forgot the some what humorus video from when you registered its down "You are a Noob on XDA-Developers "

And in my case. No every thing I ever downloaded so far have been downloaded successfully. Only found a random "rapidshare" copycat not to work.

Whats the diference of sense 3.0 from sense 3.5 can someone explain it to me please

sent from my SENSATION 4G USING INSERT COIN ROM BY BAADNEWZ
[HTC Sensation] Freshly_Snipes:
UI differences that prevented smaller devices from utilizing the features of 3.0.. So in a nutshell 3.5 is smaller resolution devices with less memory and lower grade processors. Those devices can not handle Sense 3.0 so they made a new one for them. A few new features but they are mainly MDPI and don't fit properly on our screen because of resolution restrictions.

Ok there Guy could be early as next month but mostly points at October or November. We don't need a bunch of doctor Phil's In here trying to correct everything. Lol funny. Just read the post and leave it be.

But Google is comical they don't even have other things fixes but they are trying to release more. Im glad they are staying in the fastlane but they need to kick ATT in gear and fix other issues then release new stuff.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terrigno:
I blame Samsung and not AT&T. My Atrix we updated twice within 2 months of it coming out.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Eddie Bombay:
ATT definitely needs to get on the bandwagon with the Infuse, my Atrix got Gingerbread pretty quick. Not sure what the big deal is.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zelendel:
I hate to say it guys but get used to it. ATT is terrible with updates. Each phone may get one major update and thats about it. Any of you that have been in the smartphone world for a while will know this. Hell sometimes ATT wont push any updates for a phone at all.

I mean think about it. A phone is termed EOL after 4 months of ATT releasing it.

I know its just crazy you would of figured this phone being 4g lol would have been perfect opportunity to run newer faster system
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Bronk93:
T-Mobile was bad with updates except with the Nexus S.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nerdy_girl:
Samsung or ATT?

We don't know who is holding up the update, do we? It could be either Samsung or ATT. It's so frustrating that Ice Cream Sandwich is supposed to be released within the next few months and Infuse owners don't even have Gingerbread yet. :mad:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
its the captivate all over again, over emphasis on updates(2.2 works fine for me), and a carrier that doesn't care about updates. why make the infuse their flagship and not push samsung to update it? i mean motorola got the atrix updated and att doesnt push that phone as hard, htc also got the inspire updated, att doesnt give a dan about that phone. but i really think it is samsung who wants to push updates only after a new device is released (sgs2!) and only because they want the new device to look beter the the "old" one
[Samsung Infuse 4G] beatblaster:
Bottom line here is simple: don't ever buy hardware in anticipation of future software releases (with the exception of a Nexus device). Once the device is sold the manufacturer really has no obligations to ever have anything to do with it again except for warranty services.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] entropism:
Reread the first paragraph, Tyshemi.

Ice cream sandwich will be released in Oct/November

. Jelly Bean will be released AFTER that, and if you go by Google's usual schedule, it would probably be around February.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
Doesn't matter when really a month two months its the fact that phone released at the same time as ours have seen nice updates and dome even two updates since launch. Its the fact that this was a eye opener for ATT you know a "look at me " phone that's going to need a time machine to catch up.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] spiritcrusher33:
All I see is too many phones coming, that the ave user will miss out on, because they are stuck on a 2 year contract, lol not everyone can afford to blow 300 plus every few months on the something new,

Truth be told I have an atrix ( which I love, great little workhorse ) and a infuse coming monday, Also have a droid incredible, and a inspire, and a few others laying around,

But the funny thing they all do the same thing, just some slightly faster than the other, etc.. right now even the droid incredible/nexus 1 still is plenty fast for gingerbread... and does everything those new dual core beasts can do.. for me its gonna boil down to design and the screen, much like when i used to shop for a pc/laptop.. <----hardly use those anymore, too. my 2 year old asus still runs like a champ. guess my point,. is choose what you like. dont get caught up in specs and hype. ..

Nope. This is standard in the tech industry - everyone has long-term product roadmaps.
