[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
So, I recently switched to the Revolution HD ROM, which is really awesome, but I'm having a weird issue with the Swype keyboard. It doesn't seem to work as often as it did under TMOUS stock: by that I mean it'll work for example when text messaging, but not for instance when doing an internet search, or entering passwords (I use the XKCD method of password choosing, using up to six common words for master passwords, rather than random hard-to-remember random individual keys; it's faster to enter, and just as secure so long as the password is long enough).

Frankly, even the TMOUS stock keyboard isn't enough; I'd much rather have the Swype feature to be always on, and only have to mess around with slow thumb-typing if I'm entering a name or unusual word. Is there any way to make Swype work everywhere, and not just on a limited subset of text boxes?
[HTC Sensation] brian.dore:
If you want the swype function always enabled, the best thing to do is ditch the HTC keyboard and get the official Swype keyboard.
[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
Well I tried signing up for the Swype beta, but even after downloading and installing the keyboard I'm still left with the dysfunctional Sense one. Even after a reboot it's still not replacing the keyboard correctly.
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
something is not right here. i have swype and it worked on revolution as well as insertcoin's roms. list what steps you took to enable swype.
[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
Well, I signed up for the Swype beta program. They sent me an email with the installer; I downloaded it and installed it. The installer gave me a new option in Settings->Language and Keyboard->Swype to enable the Swype keyboard, which I did (they gave you the big warning about Swype being able to potentially see your keystrokes/etc that you have to click through).

Then I tried it out. I hit the search button from the home screen--no Swype, just the same Sense keyboard. Went into text messaging, same thing. Even after a reboot, unchecking-checking the box, all the same.

Running Revolution HD 3.6.1
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
swype works fine for me as well.. I think you got something buggy up there. What I would do is basically use titanium backup and uninstall swype and get rid of it completely. Then use installer and get it back!

Not sure if this would work.. it'd clean it up a bit though!
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
You forgot to select input method. That's your problem

Oh for F-ing, F- F.... balls. Yeah, that's right, I forgot to change input method. Boy, do I feel stupid.

Okay, thanks! :D
[HTC Sensation] jeibosquez:
wierd issue... i've flashed almost all the roms here( using ARHD 4.x.x) and never had such a problem! it should walk you through all the options to have it on before you even close the swype installer app.....
[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
Yeah, for some reason it didn't the first time, but it did when I re-installed. Weird, huh?
[HTC Sensation] Dacoit:
I did some testing. The trace works fine on Tmob based roms even with text input predictions disabled. But AR HD, you must have predictions enabled for it to work. That's why I don't like it on AR HD. So Im forced to use Go Keyboard.
[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
For no apparent reason, my phone just threw up this warning. I'd really rather not have to format it. Oddly enough, I can't access the Disk Management on my laptop. I put the card in an adapter into my computer and it can't seem to read it there at all either. Doesn't even notice it's in there.

Is there any way I can get to the card to scan it and attempt either to fix it or at the very least get my files off of it? Any way, since neither the computer or the phone can access it, I can use the phone to USB access the card on the computer?
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
That doesn't sound good :/ If you can't get the phone or computer to read it, it might be toast. Have you tried going into recovery and mounting the sd card and see if it will read? What type of card is it? And what rom were/are you running?

had this happen to my after market 8gb class 8 sdcard .. was very upsetting. the tool i used was msdos based but i can't seem to find the name.

a friend recommends using getdataback fat32 as saying he has used it for 8+ yrs.

i've generally tried to stick to main stream name brand sdcards now ..

sorry for the bad news, but hope the tool helps to recover your sdcard data.

Ineed help getting my msl #

I'm not trying to call sprint but I know that's an option

Another is connectbot which I'm trying but msl won't seem to come up and even when I type in getprop | grep MSL it doesn't give me anything so is there any other way or maybe a differenct command on connect bot to get me my msl? And does the msl vary from phone to phone or is it from the phone number? Cuz on my old epic I got it from connectbot and that one broke so this is a replacemnt and the same number isn't working?

I remember on the last one I used connectbot and used the getprop | grep msl and it got me it but its not working now

Do I have to be connected on a certain connection or either of the 3 ( 3g, 4g, wifi) works?

[HTC Amaze 4G] Lawk:
Hello,

The title says it all really. Wondering if the Amaze would work here on T-Mobile Austria which uses UMTS 2100. I read somewhere else that it relies on 1700 and 2100 for upload/download. Don't much about how this works.... or can the phone do both on the 2100 band? I sort of prefer it to a normal Sensation available here because it has NFC. Not that it has much use as of now....

EDIT: on Wiki it appears that T-Mobile Austria uses 1900 for upload and 2100 for download so I guess it wouldn't work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Metallaro:
I'm also interested in this.

I live in italy and I'm not sure it's working in europe. Generally t-mobile's phones works in italy, but I want to be sure before I buy :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] Enzopreme:
it should, considering the network bands are the same as usual...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Willieumm:
Those are three bands listed on my box. Shows 1900 so I'm guessing it would work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] keger_:
You will be able to use the HTC Amaze to place calls pretty much anywhere in the world since it's quad-band.

For 3G however, the box indicates only UMTS bands AWS & 2100. So you just have to check if your carrier uses one of those bands for 3G (you can look at this page for example). As you can see, the phone will work in 3G pretty much everywhere in Europe.

Some carriers however use UMTS bands 2100 and 900. The 900 Mhz frequency has a wider coverage area and is quite cheap to set up since the carriers can use existing GSM antennas (with some modification of course). If your carrier is listed as using "900/2100", it basically means you'll only have 3G in densely populated areas (where UMTS 2100 is used) but not in remote areas (where UMTS 900 is used). Both frequencies' coverage maps should be available on your carrier's website.

Lawk and Metallaro: 900 Mhz doesn't seem to be in use in Austria nor in Italy, so you should have full 3G coverage with the HTC Amaze (unless Wikipedia is wrong of course).
[HTC Amaze 4G] Metallaro:
Ok, thanks to all :D

So i havent rooted my phone yet but i want to take a screenshot. i know that i can because i have done it on accident before but im not sure how i did it. any idea how to?

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Did you hit the power button and the home screen button at the same time?

:)
[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
If you're on stock, and you received the 2.3.4 update a month ago, you should be able to take a screenshot by pushing power and home at the same time (or, rather, by holding the Power button and tapping Home). The screenshot should be saved in your camera gallery.

I know this does not work for the Revolution ROM, but IIRC it did work right when I was still on stock.

You are trying to take the screenshot and here i am so bugged out because my phone is not stopping taking the damn screenshot

Lol. Ya idk what htc was thinking -.- ... it drove me crazy on cm7 now so i dont have to worry about that issue anymore

It works in Revolution HD ROM, to get it to work use ES File explorer and edit screencapture to = true , it is false by default. It should work after. For stock ROM like the previous post said it comes with the 2.3.4 update.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsEVOlve:
I have been rooted with my SGT 10.1 wifi since day one and have never lost movies functionality in the Market (since movies were rolled out). I went from stock Honeycomb to Bonsai to TW when it came out and most recently was on stock rooted KME with Pershoots kernal and never lost movies in the Market. Is this the case for everyone else (rooted with movies)? Like everyone else I read that rooted devices wouldn't get Movies access but figured Google changed their mind or something because I was never affected.

I ask because I flashed Task's and Phantom's Paris ROM and finally POOF it was gone! I searched for a workaround or fix but couldn't find one. What would be missing, or present, in their ROM that would prevent movies from working?
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] legsim:
Hello everybody,

I was just looking around the Pre 3 kernel sources to find something useful about turning on the flash LED to make a torch when I found some lines related to Android.

Maybe HP just used Android sources to make their kernel or maybe this kernel is ready to start Android ?

What do you think about that ?

Qualcomm's reference kernel for that processor is an Android kernel. So all devices based on that processor start with an Android kernel and work from there.

[WebOS Software and Hacking General] sylau90:
so,is it possible to run android on hp pre 3?
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] pablo_max:
Yes, both the Pre3 and touchpad were developed with android due to mismatch in speed between hardware teams and webOS teams. I.e. webOS teams were way too slow.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] rwhitby:
On what authority do you make this statement? Do you work in either of those teams? You'll need some facts to back up a bold, unprovable statement like that.

-- Rod
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] legsim:
Seriously ? It sounds a little weird, I thought that the Pre 3 was developed with WebOS 2.1.

Anyway, it still would be great to be able to dual-boot Android or at least make Android apps working, maybe within a chroot like there is with the Touchpad.

By the way, would the Touchpad Android IPK work on Pre 3 ? Is there any reason I shouldn't try ?
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] rwhitby:
Without further proof, you should treat that post as trolling. There is no Android available from HP for the Pre 3.

You should read the threads on PreCentral where the damage that package does to your kernel installation is outlined. Folks are having to doctor their devices to recover full capability again.

-- Rod
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] legsim:
I tried to install the IPK but it didn't want to install the modified kernel.

So I did it manually and now the Pre 3 won't boot anymore.

It's time for doctoring in recovery mode :D

[Droid X General] deviations:
I bricked my phone while installing Jakebites Mod and was wondering what do I do next?? I was running the lastest CM7 GB nightly (112) and installed v12 jakebites mod and then my phone got stuck in a bootloop. I'm still not sure why my phone got stuck in a bootloop.

My phone settings said I was on Android 2.3.7. Which version do I SBF back to??

Also, the last nightly I was on was CM7 nightly 78, which was froyo. I wiped cache/dalvik and directly flashed 112 without any problems. I never did any OTA GB update or anything when I was on 2.3.340. Did I skip a crucial step??
[Droid X General] FrostyIcy:
Did you wipe data/factory reset? If not do that first then wipe cache data partition, then dalvik.

Also sometimes you can go into a bootloop if you have your phone connected to a charger while installing a new rom and then unplug it. If you didn't do this then just try the above step.

I have been flashing roms and rooting for months but i just faced this wifi problem today and it was driving me crazy until i could fix it.. read around the forums and i tried flashing stock rom again and that seemed to fix the problem.

i was looking for just modem files but couldnt find so flashed intratechs KI8 FW with KI4 modem and this has fixed wifi problem and can finally access net again..

This makes me wonder if the problem occured while flashing the insecure kernel for rooting. But i sure did flash original kernel after and wifi was working fine for 2 days before it gave it.. so still cannot locate source of problem if any of u have suggestions then might help the many others having same problem. I would suggest flashing a stock rom and testing it out for few days without rooting to see if problem still persists.
