[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgm8:
Anyone noticed the initial config of exchange stop working after switched from other roms for the last few days? I am getting "Setup could not finish activation failed messages". It was working fine few days ago. Must something to do with Samsungs activation?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromekobriger:
I think you're right about it being a Samsung thing, part of the error is that it can't communicate with the network, yet we have full APN access. I called AT&T about it, they said other people are calling as well but so far do not have a solution. I'm going to try replacing the default email.apk with one that has less security, see if that makes a difference.

Edit: it didn't make any difference. I also tried Samsung's online support, that turned out to be totally useless. As much as I really don't want to do it, I'm going to go with CM7 until we figure this out.

I editted my build.prop file and I'm wondering if I reflash my ROM or flash an upgrade or new ROM in the future if it will cause an errors or something like that. Is it totally safe the way it is?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
The build.prop will (most likely) get over written but, that's about it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mapheG2:
That sounds good because I plan on reflashing my CM7.1 because nobody is having their WIFI Calling getting messed up.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ditamae:
Yes, it gets written over every time you flash a ROM, as OriginalGabriel said. I change mine every time I update my ROM... but also, when you edit it, a backup is automatically made... and if I recall you changed the ro.product.model from HTC Vision to T-Mobile G2... essentially you changed it to correctly identify your device in the event that you want to use T-Mobile apps.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dudemeister:
Does anyone have a working version of the stock CDMA kernel ver.1.13.651.7?

I downloaded the one listed on this link, but after flashing it using TWRP recovery, and deleting the caches, the system rebooted in the same version I previously had.

After trying this twice, I can only assume that either the flash didn't work at all, or that the version is not actually 1.13.651.7, rather it's 1.11.651.3.

Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
all the stock files are kept at http://goo-inside.me/shooter/ruu .

if you need an individual kernel, extract from the PG86IMG.zip file. either create your own .zip (replace files in an existing one) to flash from recovery, or flash just the kernel boot.img via fastboot and manually load the modules after booting.

not sure why you're going down to a previous version, but the steps above should get you on the right track.

good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] Dudemeister:
I'm not trying to go back. I have a rooted 3D EVO with ver. 1.11.651.3. I would like to upgrade the kernel to version 1.13.651.7.

Also when I said I was looking for the "Stock" kernel, I meant the basic kernel, not a modded one. However I do want one that will not wipe out my root.

Forgive my ignorance, but does using the official Sprint kernel also result in a loss of root ? Or is that only if I do the OTA upgrade process ?

In the RUU folder you linked, there are 2 versions of each file. The RUU signed version and the plain one. The unsigned ones are about 25MB smaller. What is the difference between them?

Last but not least, can I do a kernel only update, or do I have to get the complete ROM ( so the kernel and ROM match).
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
1) In the link I provided, there is not a "signed" and plain version. The RUU is a .exe ran from a Windows based computer while the PG86IMG.zip file (also signed) can be flashed directly from the bootloader.

2) Using an official kernel will not result in a loss of root as root *should* be stored in the /system partition not in the kernel. If you're unsure how your device is rooted, feel free to use my Root Checker application and post your advanced Root Check results here.

3) You will lose root if you directly flash a full RUU or if you use any of the official OTA files. If you flash the latest hboot version 1.5, you will more than likely be forced to use the HTC unlock method to gain permanent root access. The HTC unlock method is not as thorough as the revolutionary method.

4) You can do a kernel only update. The modules stored in /system/lib/modules must match the kernel being loaded. There are some posts which have the stock kernel bundled into a .zip file. As long as these .zip files contain both the kernel boot.img and the kernel's modules, they can be loaded and should function well.

There will be two ways to load these kernels, assuming you've already rooted by running Revolutionary. 1) My app, Flash Image GUI. 2) Custom Recovery - Clockworkmod or TWRP.

Hope that helps!

Hello all, I'm new to x10 flashing, and i've been playing with flashing roms for the x10a and i was wondering if you guys would be able to tell me why the x10a would be able to be on gsm (data) but i do not get text messages...

Ok so rom = MIUI_xperia_TripNRaVeR-v1.8.3

baseband = 2.1.65

Kernel = 2.6.29

Also can the x10a / x10i radios be swapped like the diam / raph radios?

anyway also as i am new to this section, would anyone care to enlighten me on the main differences in the chefs (who puts out more stability or battery or performance or XYZ) Thanks =]

[HTC Amaze 4G] josefgabriel:
Hello. Just bought my third HTC phone and I am very happy with it. The 1080P video sounds especially appealing. I saw there was an HDMI adapter which I mentioned to the sales guy and he said that his girlfriend had one(of the phones) and their TV (which has wifi) automatically picked it up. If I am going to take good HD videos it would be great to send them over wifi to my PS3 (preferably) or my computer with a media server on it to watch them easily. I have heard of an app called awesome drop but everything I have seen is getting media ONTO the phone, not off. I know I could just USB to my computer (and maybe even ps3?) but since it can be on my wifi network it would seem there was some way to easily just push the video wirelessly to watch. I know this isn't specific to the Amaze so if you think I will get better answers I can move to a more general Android area. Thanks always XDA.

Also in the same vein is there some app to just directly move any files freely between the phone and my computer (and maybe even ps3?) over wifi? TY

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr8801:
Today i went to hilton head from savannah. In savannah i have fine 4g service. once i passed over bored of ga and sc i lost all service. i did not go into 3g nor edge. I also have a vibrant that i carry which kept a 3g service for most of the time. It went into edge for a few minutes but it krept back into 3g. My SGS II never came back into service until i was 5 minutes away from my house. I reset the phone a couple times throughout the day which did not help. has anyone experienced a loss in data with another phone that is on same service have data. This was unexpected and frankly pissed me off. NO GPS, NO INTERNET. all i could do was text. I even had gps on my vibrant (miui latest le) which if you came from vibrant you know its not the greatest gps.

My real question is....Do you think its a defect and should i try to get another one or something im going to have to deal with on the SGS II . I am always going back and forth between the two places.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
Next time you take the drive try going to Settings -> Wireless & Network -> Mobile Networks and changing your network mode to GSM only.

You may be onto something because I experience the same thing when at the office. My 4G drops and it won't switch to edge, I just have no service.

If the auto mode isn't working for anyone that really is lame.

I have called CS on this and they didn't seem concerned and just told me to do what I wrote in the first paragraph.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr8801:
alright i will definitely try that. i appreciate your input. And i agree, very lame.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:

I'm just glad to see someone else having the problem, no offense or anything. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr8801:
well i would rather know if its a defect or just unable to switch services automatically before my grace period is up. So please do report back...:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
It definitely seems like there is an issue with switching between 4g & E. I can't fully confirm but I've been switching them manually today and it's working. If I leave it on auto it never switches to edge even when 4g is at zero bars. Weird. I don't know if this is normal or not cause this is my first real 4g device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr8801:
Yeah this is my first time on 4g. I might just go to tmo store and talk to them about it.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
"Vision" is the HTC codename for the device. It was announced and sold in the USA as the "T-mobile G2" and sold everywhere else in the world as the "HTC Desire Z".

It is just one device. On the forums it is regularly referred to as the Vision because most mods/ROMs can be used on either the DZ or the G2, and there's no need to specify between the two.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karan_adhikari:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
Yes your device is a Desire Z (Unless it has T-Mobile written above the screen instead of HTC)

For checking internal storage, you can go to settings, and select Storage from there, the total and available will be listed.

The Vision has 512mb of RAM, but some of that is taken up by the Android system/kernel, so you may see apps/settings reporting it as having a lot less total (mine shows 367mb)

You can find more info here

If yes then which ROM will be the BESTEST one? Will it effect the overall performance of by HTC DZ/Vision?

Finally, pl suggest some link where I can find a Layman's Tutorial to Flash it with an updated ROM.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
For Radios, I would only play with them if you have really poor battery or signal.

There is no answer for which is the 'best' radio, it really seems to be up to the phone itself.

Don't get the official update to gingerbread, as it makes it a bit harder to root.

For a rooting guide I recommend the XDA Wiki or if that seems a bit complex, use the Cyanogenmod Wiki

if you get stuck, jump into the #G2ROOT irc channel on freenode

For a rom, I'd recommend Cyangenmod, or if you want to stick with a sense rom, use Virtuous Sense

OK. So it gets fast locks which is good but the real acid test is navigation. And not on big straight highways but on surface streets with lots of turns. Does it do this well? Does it need to sit in line of sight to the sky in your car (i.e. on the dashboard) to work or can you drop it in a cup holder and have it track you accurately?
