Hey, im new to this site and i just had my HTC HD2 go completely unresponsive. The touch screen doesnt work, and i have contacts that i inputed and did not copy to my SIM card as a back up. My question is, does anyone know where this folder/file is located on the phone? i have access to my phone via my computer but it won sync my contacts with outlook. im trying to get these numbers before i have to return my phone back to TMO for the HD7 they are sending me. any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
[HD2 General] jdmkyd:
contacts

no one knows how to do this? any help is greatly appreciated thanks
[HD2 General] Mister B:
For contacts you want the pim.vol file found in devices root memory.

Few threads on this if you do a search.

I have used WM device emulator to load a pim.vol before & then use apropriate tools to export to CSV or what ever format you require to import to other devices/applications.

You can also try using MyMobiler (link in my Sig) & perhaps try waking your device up without using endcall key can help work around unresponsive screen issues ...
[HD2 General] TecHunter:
Hi,

my screen broke about 5months ago. So i bought a new digitizer to replace it but after I soldered and installed it, the touch screen didnt respond. So I sent back the digitizer for another one and same thing happened.

Then I bought a screen + digitizer already soldered and tried to replace it but same thing.

When the screen was broken the touch screen still worked, weird uh?

Any idea?
[HD2 General] kompheak:
Probably in the process of removing the old digitizer... the female connector on the board that connects to the flex cable of the digitizer might be broken... so my guess... you might need a new board
[HD2 General] bib*oops:
In fact, it's affected some soldering point(s) of the female lcd connector on the motherboard: some skilled service guy can fix it ( worse case scenario you'll have to replace connector!).
[HD2 General] TecHunter:
Ok I will try checking the connector. Thx

Yes, a lot of chinese Producs ( i bet you ordered all from HongKong ) aren´t working out of the box. Often this Parts are not only Cheap; no....they are Produced only for the Trashcan...

It´s not easy to find a Reseller they sell good and working Parts !

Best Regards and good Luck !

[General Questions and Answers] kirt231:
If Google keeps Android open source and they want Android to be modded why don't they just give root access with Android? Why do they keep patching the exploits?
[General Questions and Answers] ticrandall:
I don't know enough about this.. But I think its more carriers locking things up.. and I think by providing root access off the bat people who don't know what they are doing can quickly screw up their phone.... Which leads to headaches
[General Questions and Answers] Griffrez:
Ye. Sounds more like that. Sounds like giving all that permission to people that don't know what they are doing can cause lots of problems, and also increase the number to calls for support for this reason. Still, I don't find any problem in bringing the phone unrooted. It's simple to root.
[General Questions and Answers] lgxmedia:
agree, but the most annoying part is warranty
[General Questions and Answers] ticrandall:
If it didn't void the warranty, companies would loose a bunch of money to people who just try to load up anything on their phone and continually brick them. If you go buy a new truck, enter it into a demolition derby, and take it back to the dealer and complain about the dents, should they warranty it? There has to be some protection for them, otherwise there is no profit, no profit no new phones.
[General Questions and Answers] Nate2:
If you get a Google Nexus developer phone, you can get root access easily.

I have been searching and can't find a port of the MIUI SMS skin to CM7. Is there such a thing? Is it possible?
[Android Themes] DevinLeFevere:
I wish this was available also. Tired of using GoSMS, but I doubt that a port will be easy.
[Android Themes] retareq:
I want this too. I was using go sms before on stock but now I'm on cm7 and I tried miui and I like the sms look there. I read around seems like its not possible.

I am thinking of designing some really premium looking themes for go sms in a few weeks. Hopefully that works out :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] rog1121:
What do you guys think about the Atrix 2? In my opinion its worse than the Atrix 4G

1500 mAh battery vs the 1930 mAh in the Atrix 4G

4.3 inch qHD vs the 4.0 inch qHD that the Atrix 4G has, I think its worse because it will be more pixelated...

Worse GPU...

Same CPU.....

The only thing that's better is the camera...

Why did Motorola even bother releasing this?
[Motorola Atrix 2] _Dennis_:
Search please.

A little research would help out before you start another thread based on assumptions since u clearly don't even have your facts straight
[Motorola Atrix 2] rog1121:
And what is incorrect in my post then?
[Motorola Atrix 2] rog1121:
Here's the search Link, nothing in there comparing these 2 phones.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rog1121:
Why is that?
[Motorola Atrix 2] XAviierG:
Camera quality, updated ui, and gives me a new challenge to develop on
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Wrong battery size, screen is no longer pentile, there are several threads already about this phone and peoples impressions on it ......like was stated earlier......try searching first.....

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 AM ----------

XAviierG I don't think u would have any problems with the A2, it is a great phone!
[Motorola Atrix 2] XAviierG:
Ill join you guys soon :) hopefully when atrix 2 thread goes up it will have better people.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rog1121:
I understand camera and the challenge but UI doesn't matter with Cyanogen...

True but they don't even have anything YET

Atrix 2 NOOBS???

I know all my specs, I know all about the pros and cons... i know how to use other peoples mods... I'm not gonna tweak or assume someone is holding out,like others, because i'm not developing... I will Say I'm addicted and can't wait to root, mod kernel, and get a different rom going on this thing... i do love it but here are a few things i would love to see...

Root

Tegra Games (huge)

Webtop hack

Kernel (like faux's)

Maybe a new ROM

Honestly this phone is great, except for the fact that when i compared bench's to a stock sgsII I was annihilated...

Kudo's to the guys who do all this hard work (I know I couldn't do it)... Also Thanks for the guides for NOOBS!!! (Little more advanced here, clearly nowhere compared to some of you all)

To all the other noobs, quit freaking out you didn't develop anything... gotta appreciate the folks that do...
[Motorola Atrix 2] cheetablaze:
No issues with my ATRIX 2, battery lasts all day and no pentile screen rocks. Zero lag or stutters. Tons of ram woot!
[Motorola Atrix 2] quicklyspent:
The a2 doesn't have tegra chip so......
[Motorola Atrix 2] mic_crispy:
OP, ive had both. Id take the atrix 2 all day.

Phone has no blur. Much quicker.

Phone is thinner

Screen is larger, pentile is gone, looks brighter / more like a SMOLED.

Camera is much better. Theres an actual camera button.

I for one, hated the position of the on / off / fingerprint scanner (never worked for me anyway). like the new one much better.

battery is better for me. I like the rubber back much better. wont get worn and shiny and quick.

Despite having the same ram / proc specs, it has a better shot of getting ice cream sandwich.

/thread.
[Motorola Atrix 2] XAviierG:
Wanna trade ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Jibraldor:
I am not going to argue about the rest as they are your personal preference and I respect that.

But better shot at getting ICS? Now why on earth would you say this considering that moto has only planned for ICS updates for phones on Verizon and has totally left out both Atrixes.

If you are referring to processor, then I would like to point out that the Xoom tablet has a Tegra 2 processor and Moto said it will get ICS.

I would like to see your reasoning behind this.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jeremyshaw:
Luckily, the sgx540 OC'd varient they are using is faster than the tegra 2. Add in chainfire = Tegra is no longer a benefit. Hey, I already have two tegra 2 devices myself, along with plenty other mobile nvidia powered devices (including an old razr v3xx with a tegra predecessor made by nvidia), but the a2 was tastey enough I almost ordered it, lol. I've been using my inspire recently, and the nonpentile 4.3" is just much better IMO, even at a lower res :(.
[Motorola Atrix 2] donharden2002:
Do some research before posting false numbers.

1st the atrix 2 battery is 1735 mah and I easily get over a days use out if it.

2nd the even is bigger but isn't a pentile screen so it's actually far less pixelated.

As far as gpu and cpu I can't say it's better or worse since that's not something I know much about.

[Motorola Atrix 2] rog1121:
What do you mean don't have anything. It has a stable release already....
[Motorola Atrix 2] XAviierG:
What phone are you talking about? Atrix 1 or 2?
[Motorola Atrix 2] mic_crispy:
Because its an Atrix 2 and not a Atrix 1. Just marketing. Why update the old one when you can update the new one that's still being sold in stores?

These manufactures do it all the time. Massively delay the updating of an older device to push sales for the newer model number, despite the older one being more than capable.

Just saying. I see the 2 getting updated before the 1. The 2 has more priority.
[Motorola Atrix 2] spielnicht:
Physical design of the Atrix 2 won me over. As I stated in another thread, overall I loved the OG Atrix, but I ABHORRED the the battery cover. The textured cover along with the metallic surround makes the Atrix 2 look and feel sweet in your hand.
[Motorola Atrix 2] maajstor:
Being said so many times that Atrix 2 has nothing to do with Tegra 2 chipset, this is what confuses me.

Please read under "Features -> CPU":

"Dual-core 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor, ULP GeForce GPU, Tegra 2 AP20H chipset"

:confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Gsm arena information is not the gospel. Trust me when I tell u its got a TI OMAP 4430 cpu inside. Do a google search, you'll find it listed by much more dependable sites than gsmarena
[Motorola Atrix 2] XAviierG:
PROCESSOR SPEED 1GHz Dual Core, Dual Channel RAM with Advanced 3D Graphics Acceleration
[Motorola Atrix 2] XAviierG:
Doesn't Say Tegra2. Took it from Motorola site

Donation accepted towards an Atrix 2 :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
It has the TI OMAP 4430 chip inside, same as the Bionic.
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
I am looking into getting this phone too! can't wait!
[Motorola Atrix 2] kojitabe:
Just wondering why moto using Powervr sgx540 rather than tegra2 on their latest phone?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Clovett:
The sgx540 is the GPU for the TI OMAP 4430 chipset

As for an earlier post concerning the Atrix 2 coming closer to getting the ICS update faster because of the Razr I agree. Withe the Razr already set for the update in January and the hardware identical, it's a no brainer to update the Razr 2 in the first quarter of 2012

As for why they changed from the tegra to the TI chipset I believe it may have something to do with the hardware encoding of video on the TI chipset. The only chipset to be certified by Netflix means hardware certs from other streaming vendors also.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Clovett:
You guys convinced me

I just came home as the proud owner of my first Android phone, of course the Atrix 2. MAN what a phone

Thanks to posts here I got it at Best Buy for $49 I also purchased the black tie service agreement because I have broken the screen on two other phones. I have the same agreement on my TV's from Best Buy. I compared it to the AT&T agreement and it's far superior. Basically anything happens to the phone they replace it, period. They also include new batteries for the two years. The agreement was $169 offset with the $49 price, a bargain for me since I have to have a working phone. Note that you would be down 2-3 days while the replacement is being sent.
[Motorola Atrix 2] tvd0405:
You may be right on this. When testing out the Atrix OG, the video player asked to install some encoding software before it can play certain format. On Atrix2, the same player just play. There is no additional encoding app to install.
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
elow guys.. anyone of you successfully SIM unlocked your atrix 2?
[Motorola Atrix 2] kindacrazyazn:
Just picked up my Atrix 2 about an hour ago from Best Buy and i am so happy with my decision. can't wait for more development to occur with it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] wickedstangs:
Just picked up my Atrix 2 about an hour ago from Best Buy getting a feel for it now.. Seems pretty good.
[Motorola Atrix 2] avee02000:
anybody unlocked Atrix 2 for other gsm ? and how is the result? please reply. Thanks
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
I just unlocked the Atrix 2 now it work in Rogers XD

i bought the unlock code from ebay

here is the link

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/UNLOCK-CODE-...654071?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item19ca073bb7

Well, it is a bit expensive and take a while (around 2 days)...... but as long as it work, i dun care lol

And this phone battery life is just amazing .......
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
after buying it, what exactly do they send you?
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
They will send you a unlock code (ex: 72968662), just put the other gsm card, and the phone will ask you the unlock code.
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
hmm will it work on any other GSM sim cards internationally?
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
i think it should work on any sim card as long as you have the correct 2g and 3g network
[Motorola Atrix 2] avee02000:
Thankyou Athris, for your reply about unlock. i want to buy atrix 2 from ebay.com. they selling it from $390 (new phone). is it good to buy at this price from ebay? i think there's something wrong that's why they selling so cheap.

correct me if i am wrong.
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
i am not quite sure too, i think it is better to take a look from the seller feedback. Make sure the phone is Atrix 2 not Atrix, since both at&t phone boxes looks pretty similar to each other.
[Motorola Atrix 2] pilboyz:
you have changed the APN setting of Atrix 2 for rogers?
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
Yes you have to set ur own apn setting for ur service provider. It is pretty easy

I'm afraid is no joke I think is bull crap
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ubuntunerd:
I check a YouTube video on replacing the screen and it didn't look easy
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
I watched one as well. Does look a little involved to say the least. I'd give it a try though, but I've always liked taking stuff apart and putting it back together. Biggest thing that looks like a pain, would be heating the glass to remove it :eek:

I have a heat gun, and I know how hot it gets, I can imagine that peeling the glass off may not be real fun. Gloves come to mind ;)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ftmaniac948:
Taking all that stuff apart though is my worry. I'm software savy not hardware and I just know il break something. A cracked phone is better than no phone
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ubuntunerd:
yep the glass part with the hair dryer or was it a heat gun? is where I thought damm !!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
I think the guy was using a hair dryer. Not quite as hot as the heat gun but still hot :eek:

Hey guys, I did a up a nice review of the Wrapsol Ultra Protection for our device. The review is at my website, but I'm not sure I can link to it here? I read the forum rules and didn't see anything wrong with linking to my site where there's a review but I'll have to see what Allgamer says. If he says no I'll have to reformat it and post it here (there are a lot of pictures).

Here it is for now: t3chniq review

Here's an excerpt, the full review is much longer (found at the site above):

Wrapsol. Ditch the phone and iPad cases and instead just apply this 0.33 mm film and you’ll be all set. Really? That’s what we set out to find out. In this t3chniq review, we’ll cover the application and day-to-day use of the new Wrapsol protective film for the (also new) Samsung Galaxy S II Sgh-T989 or Hercules.

Summary:

Price: $29.95 at writing

Maker: Wrapsol

Pros:

+Tabs provide super easy, no bubble install

+Squeegee best that we have seen

+Instructions clear and concise, with detailed images

Cons:

-Side protection lacks instructions

-Not 100% smudge free

-(Could just be the SGSII) Privacy protection could be better

Is THis Better Than Zagg?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mziol:
Honestly, if I had to buy one or the other I'd go with Wrapsol. The tabs make it infinitely easier and combine that with no water and its a winning recipe. I've had it on now for a few days and I don't have any lint or peeling from pocketing it at work and constantly inserting and removing it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
Zagg seems like to be just a screen protector. This is real protection for a phone will no added bulk. I'll be picking up a ultra and clean one for my device. Thank you for your review never again will I pick zagg.:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mziol:
No problem! I hope it works out for you as well as it did for me. Post back maybe when you get it so there's a second opinion here in XDA.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] wx690:
Not to nitpick but I'm looking at the 'gtg's stock uxkg3 rom with root removed' and noticed that it has the de-odexed apk's and framework files. I'm pretty sure that the Rogers Infuses, out of the box, have odex files. Would the lack of odex files be enough reason for Rogers not to service an Infuse with the reason being that some of the system files have been modified?

Also, not a big deal, but the updater-script still has references to 'su' and 'busybox' and symlinks to bin files that do not exist (ex. mkdir).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
It would be awesome if gtg could provide the original framework. Or anyone with a rogers phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:
ok guys heres what im gonna do. im gonna download the odin version of the uxkg3 root package. pull all the apps and framework from there. and drop them into the rom package on here. i need someone to test once im done.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
The odin version, are you able to remove the odex or whatever its called from it? And I'd be willing to test it when i get back home. Around 6-7pm est time. I take it around 5-6pm for your time Jordan.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:
Yea. I'm pulling those files. Since its not deodexed
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
Cool! Well I definitley support this! Will donate when its done.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:
i removed su, busybox, and symlink calls in updater-script also. i hope this works. anybody willing to try? i dont really wanna mess up my current setup on my phone right now. its perfect.
