[HD2 General] samsamuel:
did you use magldr?

Magldr prevents the phone from charging unless it is on and booted into android.

You can

1 - use another hd2 running winmo to charge your battery

2 - get an external charger

3 - borrow a charged battery, use it to flash winmo to your phone and use your phone to charge your battery

4 - get a mini or micro USB cable (can prob do it with the larger printer type usb cables too, whatever you have about), , , cut end off, , , bare the red and black wires, , , plug into wall charger and apply red to + and black to - for about a minute, maybe two, , , battery back in phone, hit power on, plug real USb cable into phone and wall charger, , hope that you gave it enough juice to get half way thru booting, which is when charging will start. If you didnt. and it dioes , , try again for longer.

U can use your fingers to hold the wires, it wont shock you.
[HD2 General] johnerz:
Also if you are in the EU its a 2 year warranty, all you need is to borrow a charged battery and return the phone to stock, same for insurance of course :)

I put my Arc to SE as this happened to me and i am getting a straight replacement as my handset is less than 28 days old, though when speaking to SE on the phone they said they are aware of the problem and working towards a solution aswell, and i told him of all the users on xda with same problem and they know about it and acknowledged the work of the developers on here trying to solve it also

Seems like SE is watching the forum to some degree, nice to know that they not only support devs but watch what were all upto :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] electricbluejase:
Well that is good to hear that SE is actually watching our development and knows about the issues we are having with the 0% battery, hopefully someone either one of the devs or even SE can work out a good fix (apart from replacing physical parts) for all of us that have fallen into the 0% trap. :-) cheers for that Lancerfq.

I am confused as to wether this. was the same problem I had as all I did to fix 0% batery was to reflash the files , I dont know , but it works now, thanks to Roa ,confused lol
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] NeoJeo:
Maybe to temporarily resolve the problem, someone could use the Docomo's modified arc firmware or kernel and take the interesting files or scripts and put that on a ftf neo firmware.

So the neo will display 1%, without turning off :confused:

Downgraded from 2.3.4->2.3.3->2.3.2.

Its not permament solution, but youll have working phone :)

i was actually happily with my rooted 2.3.4 for a couple of hours when suddenly the phone hangs, and when rebooted, wifi somehow not working. so, i downgraded back to 2.3.2 and got 1% battery.. this happened before but off, take out then in the battery, then on again, solved it... but after applying gingerbreak, the 0% ghost came... tried flashing with 2.3.4 again using flashtool but still 0%..

so, still no solution yet? read the thread at arc and they doesn't seem to found the cure also yet is it? so, my phone is bricked then?

is it because of gingerbreak? does the original upgrade to 2.3.4 changed the kernel and when trying to use it again, it somehow brick the phone?

damn! thankfully i haven't sold my htc wildfire yet... hope there WILL be SOLUTION...

:(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tleung11:
maybe you can get rid of gingerbreak and try use Flashtool or other method to do rooting

BTW 2.3.2 is the easiest to get battery 0% problem, 2.3.3 & 2.3.4 seems no this problem.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nvsocr7:
Hey everyone, I am new to the rooting world however I have only experienced good things. I decided to root my thunderbolt using TB Autoroot+htc sync last night(had the original stock froyo, was going to installed cyanogen mod 7) and was successful. Unfortunately, I then installed the leaked 2.3.4 RUU GB which rerooted my TB before I installed the cm7(wanted to try the RUU out, bad idea lol). I was wondering if all or any of these are possible (dont care about losing data, just don't want to brick, ie avoiding command lines if possible):

1. root the phone while maintaining the leaked 2.3.4 RUU, just as was done for FROYO? Original reason for rooting was to remove the bloatware apps, but not having custom roms would be ok at this point if that is this is the only option. I know there is the revolution method to root, however will that work on the leaked 2.3.4 RUU?

2. root the tb with my current 2.3.4 RUU and install the BAMF 2.3.4/sense 3.0 GB build, or some other custom 2.3.4 rom?

A tutorial or walk through would be great! :) I know there are some out there, however I am looking for one specifically for those that have the leaked 2.3.4 RUU on the thunderbolt.

Also, can someone explain the difference in features of the GB builds that have been out for some time(customs) vs the RUU by verizon? I'm not talking about the physical aspects or the apps that come with, but more in terms of installing/switching between them. I know I need to root in order to install the custom roms, but assuming i can root the 2.3.4 RUU, will I be able to install any other 2.3.4 rom such as BAMF or cyanogen without problems? I have heard that you just arent allowed to go backwards, ie back to Froyo one you update to GB, but I should be able to install any 2.3.4 GB ROM once rooted via the bootloader(power+volume down) True?

Any help would be great! Thanks!

Ota update after root

I just got this thunderbolt replacement in the mail. I noticed OTA was trying to update so I hurried and pulled the battery to intterupt the update since it was in the version I needed to be to ROOT. Ok I went ahead and ROOTED the phone then updated my RADIO (wich by the way is a big difference without it, it wont stay in 4g) ok so I think im good to go when I see the phone is trying to do a FIRMWARE update again, I dont know if this will ruin my root or phone so Im in airplane mode till I find out what to do. I dont know how to turn off automatic update and I dont want to mess up my root or phone. WHAT DO I DO PLEASE HELP!!!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
If you are rooted, just use a program like root explorer to search for a file called otacerts.zip and rename it to otacerts.bak

When you open root explorer, make sure to put it into write mode. look at the top left side of the program and press on the mount r/w option

I've never rooted but I believe you need to downgrade. Revolutionary does not work with the latest OTA. There are several posts around that explain how to downgrade to the previous OTA (link below). Then you should be able to use the revolutionary method.

Coming from HD2 with class 10 microsd. I had class 10 because android was installed in the sdcard (before the nand hack).

Now, since the sensation is running from internal, is a class 4 32GB good enough?

Coz I won one for $29 bux free shipping lol...
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=651438
[HTC Sensation] DeoreDX:
Depending on the usage your Class 4 may actually be better than a Class 10. The SD card class speeds were developed with a narrow focus on sequential write speed because that is that cameras/video cameras need in order to write the information to the card as it is being created by the camera. But when used in a phone you don't really use it in sequential read/write it is more often than not used with random read/write, and often lower class cards perform better in these tasks than higher class cards.

As someone who regularly likes to move giant files over, I appreciate the Class 10. If you're just moving music and stuff occasionally...you'll be fine.
[HTC Sensation] bangsters:
Thanks. I was initially looking for a class 10. But since it was a steal at $29 bux with a minute left, I went ahead with the bid. didn't expect to win but I did, so might as well use it with the sensation :)
[HTC Sensation] Panagiotis.:
Very good programs for testing your memory are:

h2testw_1.4 in order to verify that the XXGB card you bought is actually XXGB

CrystalDiskMark3_0_1b in order to do a benchmark to see what is the real speed of your card. The apps on android are not reliable for these tests.
[HTC Sensation] bangsters:
Once I get the card I'll post my feedback. Coming from a 16GB class10 hopefully I won't notice the difference. :)

^^

The lockscreen is the only thing Sense3 has going for it imho. I think its very good and the extra shortcuts are nice, but what i really love is that you can put analog clock widgets on the lockscreen. I'm one of those guys that can read the time about twice as fast on analog clocks :)

I even use the lockscreen on my current rom MIUI, i've used it for too long now my thumb always wants to go up for unlocking :p

[HTC Sensation] Waveblade:
I cant remember off the top of my head exactly, but it requires backing up the contacts to the SD card (export both the phone and the SIM in case you have some mixed up). Search for *.vcf like I did on the SD card because I didn't know where it was saved yesterday haha.

Then import into Google via Gmail (Contacts > Tab button: More > Select Import)

You'll see a bunch of repeats, so under that same menu you can find and merge contacts. After that on your Sensation Go into Settings > Sync (something i cant remember) > and select Google and select synchronize contacts if it isn't already.

I'll come back in a few hours if I manage to remember

You did the right thing by starting a thread for this question. The information can not be found with an internet search; the only way to find out how to do this task is by asking on XDA. There is no possibility that it is explained on dozens or even hundeds of threads, FAQ's, and self-help sites.

In fact, you're probably the second person who ever wanted to move contacts to a Google account; whoever gives you the answer will have been the first person, and he found out by using a Jedi mind trick on a smartphone.
[HTC Sensation] bmwsensation:
I Did the trick,

You must hold the person you wanted to send to gmail. As vcard. Picture included! Then share or mail it to your own gmail. Make sure you can load mail into you htc. Then just open and tap the attached file. It should open and will ask you where you Wanted to store it. Choice gmail course. It wil now link the phonesavednr. My phone is good clear now I mean simcard :)

And remember to add only gmail numbers if you want that gmail contacts is updated all the time.

Alright this is 3 really quick and easy questions.

I have infused 2.2.3 and i wanna know:

1) if i install a theme, or probably any mod or something like that, how would i take it off?If i wanted to change the theme im on, do i simply go into cwm and apply a different theme? Or do i have to do something to remove the other one?

2)Do i need the old zips i applied to the phone or should i just delete them?

3) and if i were to put allll my zips in there could i just install them from there or do they need to be in the main part of my internal sd card? Basically does it matter where in my internal sd card they are or not?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Reynaldinho111:
1) To revert your theme back to the original you would either need to flash the rom again or the theme developer SHOULD have a revert for you to flash.

2)I keep them around just because, I always keepat least two roms and two kernels and a whole bunch of mods and modems. I mean the infuse has 16gb internal storage so memory isnt really that big of a deal. But no you dont NEED them.

3)Nope I've flashed from all sorts of places on my SD card. Root of the SD is probably the easiest though because then you dont have to do all the navigating through files etc in CWM.
