[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baronmxc:
I'm just saying. Its quite obvious that we have way better devs here than the ones who work for HTC/Verizon. Those devs may need to come here more often for more "training" lol.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdsjoseluis:
Hey guys so the big question is.. do we thunderbolt owners deserve a phone replacement with equal or qreater value and return this malfunction phone?

:mad:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grnlantern79:
That won't happen since what it did is fixable with an update. Or in it case just root the thing already. Although my complaining got me a 2 year upgrade waiting even tho just bought the TB in April. Can you say Vigor :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
ya been there done that,its really hard to just enjoy the phone "get sold on the stuff inside and the get the phone and go wtf wheres the stuff they advertised"
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallstevenson:
You just a new phone ... for free. Good luck with that.

Shhhh, they lied.... Do you really think they would say "Verizon Wireless and HTC knew that voicemail notifications didn't work with the recent software update and we chose to do nothing, release it anyway, and hope no one would notice" ? :eek: :eek:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baronmxc:
The way they went about it sure felt like they assumed no one would notice. However, all the leaks had the voicemail bug present.

The only thing I could think of is that since everyone was bashing Verizon to release the GB update, Verizon was probably like this at the meeting: "Yea, we have been procrastinators on the GB update for the last 6 months. Hey John, just go ahead an release what we've got. We'll fix everything later, when we feel like it."

They had to do some level of testing as the camera libs were fixed. Now I bet the CSRs are instructed to tell the customer to do a factory reset to fix the issue.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallstevenson:
Camera functions, I am sure, are HTC's responsibility.

Speaking of that, has ANYONE called in to complain to VZW about the VM issue and if so, what were you told ????
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
Verizon does not perform any coding themselves. It is all HTC's responsibility.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JillyBohnson:
Kinda tough looking for a job if you miss their call & can't return it because they can't test an update.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erishasnobattery:
And i can assure you, the VM problem was all HTC. The same code is used on EVERY HTC device I've seen.

Wow that's pathetic :o
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
So visual voicemail works even tells u to login.I hard reset phone for s's&g's...so what's the b**** again.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallstevenson:
Why do notifications work properly on other phones then ? Just curious...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
Just a hunch. HTC forgot the code on this phone?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
It amazes me that Verizon has brainwashed people so much that they cannot differentiate between visual voicemail and standard voicemail.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallstevenson:
Just a hunch, huh ? :D I'm positive I recall something like "I gave him the files to work with" posted by someone... :D
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thunderwhat:
VM notification doesnt work. So I just simply called verizon, told them that I heard visual voicemail does work and told them I'd like them to add it for free until the patch is issued. They put me on hold for 5 min, came back and said they had added VVM to my account for free till the patch is issued. No arm twisting necessary. Tested VVM and notifications work fine.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
The stuff they charge you for will always work.

I'm phone poor $3.00 bucks ain't gonna kill me.

I got bigger problems to worry about then vm indicator dont work.

The bigger problem on phone get text that incoming text kills dial pad

Or in the middle of call Bluetooth dies off.

This update sucks.

where's the windows restore button.

S*** a roll back button.

With the long bug list on the *new* Droid Bionic, and the lack of competence on VZW's part on rolling out OTA's with bugs; it makes a person skeptical in wanting to pick up a new device.

I may be sticking to my trusty BAMF'd T-bolt for a long time... ;)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
ya know looking back to oh around to 2003 ya had a phone with problems you would have to call big red and b**** and maybe,just maybe there would be a firmware update,so off to the corp store to have phone flashed ,ok go run around doing things to kill 45 minutes,ok times up go back to store may if your lucky phone did not die in process.

Now we have all these forums where the brightest minds cook up killer roms,me being phone poor can't afford to go out buy a high dollar smartphone throw custom rom and with my luck have phone not f*** up.

I don't have back up phones just sitting around waiting to be killed.

The phone I have is the only one.

For HTC/Verizon throwing trash out and calling it gingerbread 2.3.4 is just outrageouly unprofessional
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
You guys ***** and whine like you're actually surprised this happened. Frankly, I'm calling this one of the most insignificant debacles in Verizon's storied history. Back when dinosaurs wandered the Earth and smart phones were expected to have dictionaries that weren't created by brain donors, we had BlackBerry. BlackBerry, under Verizon's twisted and malformed guiding hand, couldn't produce an OS version that didn't sacrifice some significant functionality of the device. The Storm2 was actually sort of competitive hardware for it's day, but Verizon couldn't resist bricking those things literally by the thousands every month with their bull**** no-option software updates. I went through 4 of them. My friend went through 7. My BB 9630 sucked ass until I dropped a pre-release Vodafone OS on it. It had a couple bugs, but the thing worked pretty good after that.... and had a dictionary didn't appear to be the product of idiots from God knows where with a piss-poor grasp on English.

I'm sorry, but of all the things to ***** about, a voice mail indicator is pretty much on the bottom of my list. I wish most glitches with a produce I buy are so menial.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
Oh man...the Storm. That thing should have bee ****canned and never made it to market.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satseaker:
I didnt have to twist any arms,just kept calling and complaining everytime I had a problem after the 3 replacement they agreed and added to my account "when the next htc 4g lte device is available I have one of two options trade for the new device and pay the difference(i paid 299 to start) or early upgrade with 100 credit(like that idea) ,they did violated the contract by not fixing the problems in a timely manor and false advertisement and I cant find it anymore but there was already a court ruling about not fixing major issue in a timely manor(was against nextel but doesnt matter)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajd88:
I called Verizon last week. I am currently on my fourth TB. They told me I can choose any 4g phone I want for free, including the bionic. The tech told me I have till Dec. 10th to choose a device. It also has to be a replacement phone, not brand new. He told me it would be a good idea to wait because their expecting some new sweet new phones in October. I think we all know what devices hes talking about.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onelazyballa:
what did you tell them to get your phone replaced. they told me that i could only get another thunderbolt, but that of course would not fix the problem.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
Did u have them note the account

And a supervisor ok it.

Funny thing is any other csr won't honor whats offered to you so have fun.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajd88:
Well the last replacement sent was junk. Headphone Jack doesn't work. Speaker grill coming off. I think the fact tthat I've had four replacements is enough for them to offer you new phones.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
With this last update what was fine before is not fine now,Bluetooth drops out when your on the phone and you need to look up a number
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottthreet32:
If you have total equipment coverage they will just keep sending you the same phone
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
I rarely comment on grammar or vocabulary, but reading your posts are truly painful.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lrs421:
I've only had 1 replacement device but I've also voiced my gripes regularly to Verizon regarding the thunderbolt. I wasn't eligible for upgrade until 1/13 but the supervisor I spoke with was sympathetic and got me into a brand new Bionic. I didn't want to wait for other devices and I secretly had a man crush on the Bionic. Besides, I didnt want another sense device and I have old bluray player beef with Samsung. No screaming or raised voices invloved, Verizon just did the right thing.

[Kyocera Zio M6000] br0adband:
I just acquired a Cricket Zio yesterday and have been playing around with it for the past 24 hours or so. Got the CWM "easy" working, reset it to the factory 2.2.1 stock Cricket ROM (from this thread) and then installed OpenZio 2.1.2 without any issues. Runs fine at 729 MHz, again without issues.

But the one thing that's disappointing me - and I mean seriously disappointing me - is the absurdly low audio volume. Videos, music, streams, doesn't matter, it's just insanely low. Now, before anyone jumps to conclusions, I've got an HD2 that I've tweaked to hell and back oh, hundreds of times (currently the one listed in my sig), and we all know the HD2 can really crank out the sounds without problems. I have a set of Koss earbuds (IEMs, they go into the ear canal and seal it off), and I've got a set of Koss KSC-75 earclips (my primary listening device).

With either of those plugged into the HD2 or any other device I own, like my Dell Axim X51v, my original Motorola Droid, and several other devices including an iPod touch too, those earbuds and earclips bring out all the sound quality the device is capable of, without issues.

But I plug them into the Zio and it's... well... meh. With bleh on top of that...

I located the Louder Volume Hack in the hopes it would help, but it doesn't matter which version I try or on either ROM (stock Cricket or OpenZio) it just FCs and never runs.

So my question is: for those people that I've read posts by that say the Zio has 'excellent audio quality' I have to ask: am I missing something someplace?

I've enabled Stagefright (on the stock Cricket ROM and on OpenZio also), makes zero difference in audio quality or audio volume, although it does seem to smooth things out a bit. Let's face it: I don't know why people keep calling this phone "a beast" 'cause I see no evidence of it. But for $50 and a pure fully working fully functional Android phone, it's doing just fine.

Yes, I wish it had multitouch, yes I wish it was bigger, and yes, I wish it was faster (even overclocked and with all the tweaks I've been reading about it's still rather perversely sluggish even though the Quadrant scores put it above the original Nexus One, go figure).

But what I'd really love is to do something about that audio, boost it up in some manner that I might not be aware of just yet. The HD2? Oh, man that can push my KSC-75 earclips so high I can't tolerate it.

And again, I understand this is actually a very low quality Android phone, but can anyone make any suggestions that might help with the low audio volume issue? All the settings are maxed out and it's still just incredibly low (and yes, it's fairly tinny with hardly any bass at all but that's secondary to the actual volume itself needing some healthy raising).

If anyone has any advice, I'm listening... figuratively speaking. :D
[Kyocera Zio M6000] SnakeFist:
I have noticed that after i flashed to openzio, awesome rom btw my volume is lower then what it was with the stock rom. Like for an example if i put the ringer volume to one notch below half way the ringer will not sound and the phone just vibrates. With the stock rom i can turn the ringer all the way down to it activates the vibrate only mode and then go up 2 notches and the phone would still play the ring tone on the incoming call. With openzio the volume meter has to be at least half way or over half way for the ringtone to sound.

[EVO 4G General] bcarter2000:
You can pull the market apk from the rom via 7zip or winzip or whatever, and push it to your /system/app/ folder
[EVO 4G General] j_shelton1988:
Or just do a quick Google search for android market and reinstall like you would an app. I accidentally deleted my market once and did that, worked just fine

[Xperia Play General] rkdwls:
Hello hello! Ive been reading up on the forums for about a year now (sorry for the leeching!), but it's my first time posting.

First I'd just like to introduce myself as a proud owner of an xperia play r800i (not yet rooted).

Here are my questions if anyone would be kind enough to answer:

1. Is there a way to show more than 8 apps in the Recent Apps list? (where you long hold the home button). Oh and without the use roms, apps, and other substitutes. Perhaps somewhere in the manifest?

2. Also how does one exclude certain applications and tasks from appearing on the Recent Apps list?

Hopefully I posted this in the right section, couldn't decide between the general section or development section, so apologies if I mis-posted.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
You did well. Development section is a section you want to avoid in order to ask questions and so on. Ideally, only people who are bringing something to the table (ROMs, programs, kernels) should start threads there.

That said, there are third party Apps with more recent Apps to show. Launcher Pro allows a swipe function which shows the 16 most recent Apps, but you can't summon them from the Home button easily like the native function.

It seems like there is almost no 2.3.4 Evo 3D kernels. Id be very interested in something like netarchy toastmod for the Evo 4G...a kernel that improves battery life. Is there a reason why there arent more kernels, like no source code or something?
[HTC EVO 3D] 3bony3dge:
Mkernel + Juicedefender has done good for my battery life.
[HTC EVO 3D] aramova:
I can think of perhaps a half dozen 3d 2.3.4 kernels. Problem is most are built into ROMs.

Right now the best battery life I've tried is the Tiamat kernel that comes with viperROM. I get 19-25 hours of moderate usage on it with the OEM battery.
