hey guys i dropped my phone and the screen ended up cracking but you could still see the display. after about a week or so you can no longer see the display at all. i noticed this when a call came in and i heard it ring but the screen was black. instead of having insurance replace it for $150, do i have a cheaper option? can i buy the parts say via ebay? i believe its a digitizer i need? thanks in advance.
[Vibrant General] peecs121:
You could try to fix it yourself but its pretty tricky. I tried replacing a screen one time and snipped one little wire by accident and it coated me the phone. Unless you really know what your doing it might be a good idea just to get the replacement. Good luck!

[Vibrant General] dseldown:
Go to these guys, they have anything and everything you'll ever need to repair or replace broken parts for phones and they are cheaper and faster than messing with EBAY Plus they have disassemble videos on every phone out there, Especially the Vibrant T-959 it takes the guess work out of it!! Get yourself, some small Phillips screwdrivers and a couple of the hardest guitar picks you can find and you'll be able to do anything with the vibrant you want to, unless your NOT COORDINATED with your hands! Note: One more thing, make sure you register your new account as a cell phone repair business, or they will ban your application!!

Here's the Link: http://www.globaldirectparts.com/ Good luck, and hope this helps!!

Are you with T-Mobile? If so it's worth a shot to call them, I think the out of warranty fee is $90, which would be cracked screen, water damage etc. They may or may not go for it but be nice and maybe they will.

Hey guys... Iv searched extensively for this but can't find an answer... ever since IV gotten the atrix IV used plenty roms and currently on cm7 pre4 but just can't get the calendar of the phone to sync with Facebook or Google for that matter... they just don't display in the calendar... like if I go to a contact it will show their birthday there... but it wont show up in the calendar which is extremely irritating...

Does anyone know a way around this...?? When you add a fb account it only syncs contacts not the calendar... on my previous SGS it would sync everything and worked amazingly ... IV tried using blur and the fb app but neither seem to sync the calendar...

[HTC Sensation] Kidshyy:
Everytime I place my phone down, the whole phone turns off. I probably placed it down with a bit of carelessness, so it might be a little harder than I think it is. And I do have a case on it.

But I don't think it should be that sensitive to the point where it turns off completely when I'm just placing it on my desk. It has a case on it too.

Oh just today, my phone dropped from about 2 feet, with the case on it, on carpet, and my phone also shut off.

Is my phone defective? Help and thanks in advance! :\
[HTC Sensation] jacksparr0w:
I am not 100% positive on this, but it may that the connectors that go to the battery a bit loose causing to momentarily not give power to the phone.

I would check and see if this may be the issue, hopefully not though.
[HTC Sensation] matury:
I had this problem with my Nokia 5655i and I solved it by... putting a little paper on the battery and the case so it gets tighter ... try to do that bro;) and report back.
[HTC Sensation] eyebaws:
My sensation is constantly turning itself off. I am now on my 3rd Sensation due to the first two having the same problem. 3rd one is the same.
[HTC Sensation] Kidshyy:
So is it even worth trying to get a warranty exchange? It's really annoying but if other sensation's have the same problem I can try to deal with it.
[HTC Sensation] Kidshyy:
Seem's like it fixed the problem. :) :) THANKS!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
Please explain the difference between these options:

"Restore missing apps with data"

(I assume this restores all the apps and the information within them. It should restore apps and they should act just like they did before I wiped, correct?)

"Restore all system data"

(Exactly what data does this restore?)

"Restore missing apps + all system data"

(this is obviously both of from above)

Here is my situation: I am installing a ROM (Synergy) and there are some small issues going on once I use Titanium to restore my apps and data. I played with the ROM before the restore and everything that was acting wierd is fine. These issues don't exsist until I restore. It must be some system settings. Mainly I have password information in my "Mail" app that only my IT guy has and getting it again is going to be a pain in the ass so I dont want to lose that data.

Any help is appreciated
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
That's correct.

It's not a good idea to restore system data across different ROMs as it can cause problems.

System data can be anything from apps that are in /system to the data that comes with them.

The problem is, that system data can conflict with your current ROMs system data.

And then you get weird issues like you are having.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
So basically I should

only

restore "missing apps with data" ....and

not

"Restore system apps+ all system data" ????
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
If you're switching ROMs, you absolutely should not.

Even if you're not I wouldn't restore system data unless you have a specifc reason to.

Text messages and call logs can be backed up via apps and most of the other system data is just settings that can be easily set again.

Plus, if you're changing ROMs those settings may not exist...causing issues.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
Ok...understood.

Through all of this reflashing and restoring I've been able to retain the account/password info in the "Mail"app. Hopefully it will still be there after this. I'll let you know.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
Hey, before you do anything, you have to back up both the mail app settings and the accounts and sync settings...otherwise it won't have the information to sync.

Go into Titanium backup, select the mail app and back up data. Select the Accounts and sync settings and back up data as well.

Hopefully you get this before you do anything.

Sorry, I missed the part about your mail credentials in the OP.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
When you backup or restore, use App + Data., and only backup and restore the apps you have d/l'd to your phone. They'd be the ones that are white. Can't get much easier.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
So I just select the mail app in Titanium and select backup? Where is account and sync settings in Titanium to backup?

When I restore apps + data after I reflash, am I going to have to restore the mail app data separately?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
Open Titanium back up.

Click backup/restore

Click on "Account and Sync settings" and choose back up.

Scroll down to your email app.

Click it and choose back up as well.

Flash whatever ROM.

Restore those two apps data. [not the apps themselves, just data]
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
I somehow lost the info during all this. Can I reload a previous nandroid back up that I put on my pc? (i dont really even know what nandroid backs up....lol)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
Yes. Just put it back on your sdcard, go into the recovery and choose restore.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
Ok. Am I going thru the reflashing process our just restore and reboot? Thanks so much.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
You just restore, it will recopy your old setup. All IMGs that were backed up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blipstein:
Wipe first?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
I'm 99.99% positive that it wipes first but I don't nandroid much.

You can, it's not like it will take you more than a few extra seconds.

Lots of useful information in the Titanium Backup Wiki.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avwheeler:
Titanium Backup

I have done all the steps for Titanium backup to restore mail settings, etc. Eventually I came the realization that not worth trying to save 15 minutes of time of entering in 8-10 account’s info. Most of the roms have issues, eliminating the issue where Titanium backup caused a problem across roms is worth a few minutes of additional setup. My process is run Full Titanium backup, full nandroid backup, copy to PC, VR Superwipe, re-partition SD (complete wipe), copy back the Titanium backup folder and new rom as well as superwipe, run superwipe, flash new rom. I never have any of the issues that many people report, then I restore apps, some with data from Titanium (eg. Games, etc. with saved data.) Bottom line I use Titanium to backup and restore user installed apps only, though I take a full backup.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
Here is something that might help. Are you trying to preserve the email account setup for an Exchange server? Or is this another email account type (pop/imap)?

I looked at my backups from Titanium, figuring that the server setup for my Exchange mail must be in there somewhere. After some poking around I found the file that contains everything including the password in clear-text. I know this is the password because I know my password.

I was able to find this in the file:

com.htc.android.mail-20110816-035214.tar.gz

Look for a similar file... the numbers are the date and time of the backup so they will be different for you.

I browsed the file with WinRAR (you can use any program that can open a tar) and found the file:

\data\data\com.htc.android.mail\.\shared_prefs\EASSetupWizard.xml

In this file I see something like:

<string name="password">

xxxyyyzzz

</string>

Where xxxyyyzzz is my exchange email password.

I found that the passwords for all accounts (including POP, IMAP, etc are in /data/data/com.htc.android.mail/databases/mail.db in the accounts table but the passwords are not clear-text. I think it just happens to be in the EASSetupWizard.xml file for the Exchange setup due to some sloppy programming on the part of HTC.

Hi,

short question: Does the Cardock detection for P990 work on a CM7-Rom? I'd like to get myself a supported dock, but i wanna know before I spend any money.

Thanks,

Tobi.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Yes it does.
[LG Optimus 2x] Texli:
Hey,

it's me again..

first of all thank you for your answer. It really DID work with CM7.

Now I'm back to stock (GB, V20L or whatever it's called) and there it doesn't work anymore. That's a pity, because unlike with every single custom rom i tried i didn't have any crashes yet.

Does anyone else have this problem? Can someone tell me how to fix it? Or can someone recommend a stable custom rom which has this thing working?

Thank you,

Tobi.

Where does one get their hands on 1.6?
[Gen8 General] FrEcP:
Hmm not sure - but they are propably not talking about UD 1.6 but the 1.6beta1 Kernel for UD wich means basicly (UD 1.5.1 + 1.6B1 Kernel)

Can as always be found in the UD development thread - no links - as u should read in dev thread about it to avoid mass questions.

Does anyone know when a new update will be out for OMFGB or TSM Poolparty? I can't post in either of those threads because I have less than 10 total posts. Thanks.

I just noticed that CM7 has not had a new nightly since 8/31. Are several of the ROM Devs having some sort of problem?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
OMFGB is updated on another site. They no longer update here I believe
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zax_Was_Here:
Kernel.org got hacked or something, so cm7 cant access the android repositories (i think thats what i read) or something. Once kernel.org fixes their stuff, we'll have new nightlies from cm7
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] scott7044:
thanks, I just read some info about kernel.org and went to the web page. The site is down for maintenance, guessing because of the hack. If all AOSP Devs need kernel.org we're probably out of luck for updates until that site is back up.

There should be a poolparty update coming soon. We're currently testing and adding/bug fixing things for v1.3.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve.garon:
I tried to search but was unsuccessful to find the information that I wanted.

Can someone tell me what are the recommended safe undervolt settings for the transformer?

I'm running prime 1.9 with clemsyn-blades 1.6a.

Thx
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
I don't know what the stock settings are but I can tell you the process I followed when I OCed my tablet. Install the custom kernel and rom you want. Then install an app to modify frequency and voltages. I use setCPU but pimpmycpu works also.

1. Find the highest clock you can attain with the provided overvolt from the kernel. To do this just start at the highest frequency and see if the tablet reboots or locks during a stress test. Some people play games to stress. I use the built in stress tester in SetCPU. Make sure to apply the higher frequency for testing but not to apply settings on reboot or you could get stuck in a reboot loop (or so I am assuming the kernel might reset to 1 GHz when a hard lock occurs).

2. Once you have the maximum Frequency (for me it was 1.644 MHz) then start lowering the voltage for that frequency only until you loose stability. I can undervolt 1.644 by -75 mV. If I go upto -100 then I get random reboots. I go in -25 mV increments but you could narrow it down even more by going with -10 or even -5 intervals.

3. Take the offset you got (in my case -75 mV)on the highest frequency and apply it to every frequency above 1 GHz and see if this is stable. If not then slowely increase voltage until you gain stability again.

4. (Optional) Then start undervolting stock frequencies from 216 MHz to 1 GHz. Every tablet is different but (I have heard) this could cause sleep issues. I undervolted all frequencies from above 216 to 1000 GHz by -25 Mv without any issues. I may bring it down slowely by increments of-5 or -10 until I run into some issues.

5. (Optional) Undervolt 216 MHz as low as possible to save standby battery power. I undervolted my 216 MHz to 725 mV (even though SetCPu goes lower the kernel is locked at this). Which helps keep my battery levels up when the tablet screen is off and not in use.

Hints: To test that a voltage is okay at a certain frequency then make sure to set your max to the frequency level you want to test. If you set the max at 1544 and undervolt 1 GHz you will never know if it is okay because when you stress it it will blow right past 1 GHz upto 1544 and the voltage for that will take over.

If you have any questions please let me know.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve.garon:
Cool. I'll give this a try.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve.garon:
I get a stable undervolt at -50 on all cpu steps which is pretty good. This should save loads of battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
I started at the top and went down every stepping from 1624 to 1000 and found out the lowest stable frequency and then added 10 to be safe to each one. I am currently at

1624 (-70)

1592 (-80)

1544 (-180)

1472 (-80)

1424 (-160)

1336 (-185)

1232 (-185)

1000 (- 110) which is 990 mV

I then set every stepping under 1 GHz frequency that was above 990 mV to 990 mV as if it can run at 1 GHz at that voltage then any speed under that will run fine at that voltage also. I have some more stability testing to do but I think I got it pretty much nailed down for my device. I may go through all the sub 1 GHz frequencies but it does take some time to run a stress test under each stepping.

Also I have never had any sleep issues but that is something to look out for. I also wonder how temperature affects stability as I have never gotten it above 40c. The pad might benefit from a 1 or 2mm thermal pad squeezed between the CPU and the back bezel (if it will fit).

Does anyone know that tjunction max for a Tegra2? I have a profile set up in SetCPU that sets the CPU frequency at 1 GHz if the CPU gets above 42 because I saw something similar in the Clemsyn rom but don't really know when the CPU will start to throttle itself at or shut off.

I am trying to find stock voltages for different devices because it seems like some mfgs are undervolting to save battery on some tablets.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve.garon:
-180 in some frequencies!! Thats just insane. I've got to try this.

FYI, you don't have to lower voltage for all upper 1ghz frequencies. If your running at 1544 for exemple. The cpu will never touch the frequencies between 1000 and 1544. After the 1000 its a direct step to whatever frequency your overclocking too. You can monitor this in setcpu.

I cannot undervolt as precise as you can. For some reason setcpu only let me do 25mv increment...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rackers:
I have undervolted by -175 on all frequencies, obviously 216Mhz is locked but all seems pretty stable after some testing. No sleep death either so I'm going to carry on testing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
In SetCPU do not use the slider use the keyboard and type in the exact number you want.

I wanted to figure out every stepping in case I wanted to switch to a lower frequency but yeah most poeple don't have to do this.

The lowest stable I have gotten is -190 but feel like adding 10 padding will ensure stability.

I will probably do the sub 1 GHz frequencies today or tomorrow.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve.garon:
I didnt even noticed I could use the keyboard...

I finally settled to -25 @216, -50 under 612 and -100 over 612. And everything is stable :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
I have tested each voltage. I am under the impression that 725 mV is the kernel minimum in the Clemsyn kernel so once I hit that I just set every frequency under that too 725. I will eventually go through and stress test every frequency @ 725 to make sure everything is a-okay but I am sure it is.

Here is my list incase anyone wants a place to start.

1680 MHz (-000) I can not overclock to this freuqency.

1624 MHz (-070) 1380 mV

1592 MHz (-080) 1345 mV

1544 MHz (-180) 1220 mV

1472 MHz (-080) 1220 mV

1424 MHz (-160) 1115 mV

1336 MHz (-185) 1065 mV

1232 MHz (-185) 990 mV

1000 MHz (-215) 885 mV

0912 MHz (-215) 835 mV

0816 MHz (-235) 790 mV

0760 MHz (-215) 760 mV

0608 MHz (-225) 725 mV

0456 MHz (-100) 725 mV

0312 MHz (-075) 725 mV

0216 MHz (-025) 725 mV

Clemsyn said the minimum mV in his kernel but I can't seem to find the thread, but I think it was 725. If I find out it is something lower I will go through the lower ones until I hit the minimum.

Also please note that everything above 1 GHz has +10 mV padding added to it above the lowest stable I could find. Everything below 1 GHz only has a +5 mV padding on it. So for example I actually hit a -240 w/o any issues @ 816 MHz.

I tested in +/-5 mV increments but if you wanted you could narrow it down even further.

EDIT: Also after some testing it looks like it does use frequencies between 1 GHz and your max. I have it set to 1644 and it does hit 1232 MHz occasionally.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
Thanks for this mate. I followed your guide exactly and I'm using clems 16? Kernel completely stable at all frequencies including the undervolting!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
Based on my testing you need ~ a +15 to +25 mV over stable CPU voltage to get stable 3D GPU.

I found that I could run hours of "Stress CPU" without any issues at a voltage but during stressful 3D games that are using CPU + GPU cores, at that same frequency, the machine would FC the app, reboot or lock. I have also noticed that the closer you are to the stable voltage different things will happen.

Far off - machine will usually reboot

Closer - machine will usually hard lock

Even closer - Apps will FC, widgets will act strange (like invert colors, black blocks for backgrounds, etc.)

So what I do now is I test with Dungeon Defenders at the main menu. Its seems that if you can last 1 hr at the Dungeon Defenders menu you are GTG. If you actually play the game then 1 stage is what I use to test.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juannicolas:

Had to remove undervolt this weekend since my camera wouldnt start anymore. I'll have to redo all the tests I was doing but test for camera too. The tablet would just freeze as soon as I opened the camera app :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bjd223:
My camera does not work either. I just figured it was Clemsyns kernel not the OC. I don't know anything about cameras but maybe they use a lot of voltage so the voltage to the CPU dips.

I never used the camera personally, but I will test it some and see what additional mV you need over stable to get the camera working.

Also I noticed the more you undervolt (it seems to me) the harder it is to undock with an app open. usually instead of reloading they FC or lock the device so i just make sure to hit the home key before I undock then alt tab right back into the app.

[Atrix 4G General] delmarvahockey29:
Hello everyone,

I just wanted to make a note of how this category thread compares to the rest. I have had plenty of android phones in the past, all being HTC. This is my first Motorola handset, and it is by far my favorite. The developers for this phone are gods among men! And yet I see more disrespect day-to-day in these threads than I do helpful comments regarding the development projects! XDA has long been my number one site for all development collaboration and needed help for the android platform, and never have I encountered so much flaming as in the Motorola ATRIX forums. I do not know if this is turning to be the century of the trolls, but I feel bad for the developers and programmers that have to deal with these put downs, even though they are putting out so much VOLUNTARY work for the community.

So, if you are reading this, let's try and think twice before posting on development threads. It is not the place for harassment, flaming, disrespect, or any hurtful suggestion, as is any other place.

Thanks.
[Atrix 4G General] Javi97100:
