Its a useless warning.

You can turn this message off by going to Settings>About Phone>Tell HTC and untick both the check boxes. You will not get the warning "Tell HTC" message ever again.

Hope this helps.
[HTC Desire S] voodoo13:
This was a fast answer! :)

So, if I interpret "useless warning" correctly, the phone did not "recover from an abnormal reset"?
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Exactly. There is no abnormal reset...

Even if there was, there's nothing HTC would do about it anyway!

All you'd be doing is sending them a summary of your current configuration.

It's not as if HTC would come to your home and fix the problem in your handset if there was any, lol!!!

Get rid of it, and enjoy peace of mind!! :D

Thanks for the answer. I had this message too.

Hey Guys need a little help.

Unable to boot to odin mode, unable to boot to recovery, unable to see phone when connected to PC.

Help me unbrick this thing, please and thank you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drdrewdown:
WhAT CAN YOU SEE?

obviously not the xda roolz

explain everything.. HOW did you get to this point?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hoopsdavis:
Nothing, I can boot in the rom I have but its not connecting to Sprint nor can I connect to my wifi. Any chance I can get it back?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] foldessy:
Wrong section
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
I just have to point out that this should be in the Q&A section, as nothing is developed.....

Is anything lighting up? What happened to it to get this way? Have you done a battery pull yet? Do you have a jig?

Edit: If you can boot into the rom, download a terminal.apk and type "su", the type "reboot recovery" that should boot you into recovery....

If you cant get a signal to use data to download, use wifi
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drdrewdown:
if you want PM me & i'll try to help you via gtalk or something.. its just going to get ugly in here

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hoopsdavis:
You guys are right, I've been around long enough to have known better. can anyone move it to Q & A?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fataldesain:
OK so the phone has 16gb and I have a 16gb SD as well. My games add up to about 2gb in the android folder. Should I move them?

Since the phone SD is split in two is there really a difference. Should move to external SD?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] LarsonJayz:
Hi guys, after reading the ten commandments for my SGS 4G. i noticed that we shouldn't install a ROM manager and well, you guessed it right, I installed the dreaded rom manager. Fortunately, I havent used it to flash my phone because I cant get to CWM recovery mode. But I have a few questions:

1. I used the rom manager feature to flash CWM. does this affect my phone in any way if i will use the correct way to flash my phone using odin?

2. I tried to reinstall the update.zip in 3e recovery. It failed and I didnt tried it since then. same question with #1 (does this affect my phone in any way if i will use the correct way to flash my phone using odin?)

Lastly, do I need to flash my phone again to stock if i decide to try using a custom rom?

By the way, I have the T-Mobile SGS 4g T959V, 2.2.1 firmware, 2.6.32.9 kernel and KD1 build number.

Thanks in advance... I would really appreciate the help because I want to learn to customize my phone in the right way... :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
Just ODIN the KD1 Bali kernel. DONE!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] LarsonJayz:
I'm going to try this later... thanks... :)

then come with 6 or 7 vibrate.

Is there any way for me to get my phone working again or have i totally wrecked it?

Btw, i have tried to hardreset it , but without any difference.

[HD2 General] KILLAH_42:
did you try an original windows mobile 6.5 rom without hspl? for example windows mobile @1.66 version an spl 1.66.000?

if there is the same problem with stock spl you shold send your hd2 to the htc service, thats my opinion
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
It's that means need to use OSPL 2.08 and below and where i can download the ori win6.5 on 2.08 below.
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
I using HSPL4 to make 3.03.0000 and flash ori rom 3.14.707.3 and it show this error

as per attach. :confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 General] se1988:
Have you tried the NBH-file on SD method?
[HD2 General] Nemesis1278:
Try ospl 2.08 then flash original rom. Hspl 4 has hspl and spl just make sure to choose the right one from the drop down menu.
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
Try on this with 2 option and result as below

- HSPL 2.08 - cannot complete if not mistake it stop at bootloader from the checklist

- OSPL 2.08 - stuck on loading ........

Using Radio 2.15.50.14

Using Original Rom Leo Asia WWE.1.66.707.1

Anymore solution .... Pls :(:(:(:(:(:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 General] Nemesis1278:
If I recall correctly you need to install ospl 1.66 since you are using a euro phone. The following link will have hspl 2 which you can restore ospl 1.66 with hspl 2.

Should I flash from the RGB screen or HTC white screen? ....

Try before on SPL 1.66.0000 flash from RGB screen just stuck not running.
[HD2 General] Nemesis1278:
It's from RGB screen that you need to install from. Strange that it gets stuck. I am guessing you may need to install hspl to go backwards first.
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
What means by install HSPL to go bsckwards 1st? .....

I have install HSPL 1.66 and install install Ori 1.66 rom but still the same freeze at the HTC white screen ......:confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 General] Nemesis1278:
Are you able to install original rom now that you have ospl 1.66 installed?
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
Nope on OSPL 1.66 with ori rom 1.66 it show ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID after 1% on the RUU installer and phone go restart.

[HD2 General] bojanbl:
Can you tell me what have you tried all with this phone to repair it?
[HD2 General] se1988:
Well, have you tried it yet??
[HD2 General] bib*oops:
Bad news!

I think it is the heating issue related to BGA...(hardware=CPU).

Put your device in a fridge for 1-2 hours and then try to reflash it by USB or SDcard: if it boots ok and after a while freezes(and same time it's getting hot), it's a hardware related issue(it's about CPU, as far as I know no certified solutions!), if still no booting, it's something else(maybe easier to fix).
[HD2 General] blazinramirez:
Hi,

I had the same problem on the HD2 and a desire. I tried for hours to recover it but nothing worked. The only way to fix this was to perform a JTAG or sending it back to HTC.
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
What means NBH files on SD card menthol?? is that copy the Rom in sd card and install from there ...

If that is then I try before and it happen the same thing it always cut off at the radio part.

anyway to fix it??
[HD2 General] bojanbl:
You didn't tell me exactly what did you do, but I would try next thing:

find appropriate stock rom for your HD2, you can try to find it from HD2 site, extract it to the folder on your hard disk, locate file in that extracted folder named RUU_signed.nbh, rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and copy it to the root of your SD card. After that reboot (or start) phone while holding volume down button. It should start ROM installation from SD card (white screen with blue letters), you have to confirm installation with end call key (power key). After that you will have latest rom and stock radio.
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
Bro Bojanbl,

Your step already done but it stuck at the radio updates/install.

If it really need to do JTAG where I can find in my country?
[HD2 General] bojanbl:
I am almost 100% sure that you have overheating motherboard problem with your HD2... Try to put your phone in fridge for 5-10 minutes and after that you can try ;)

If it all works good with cooled HD2 than I am right...
[HD2 General] gina_michelle109:
posted this same text on another thread, but this one seems to be more active, and more closely related to my issue so....

bear with me here, guys, as i am new to not only this site, but to the world of htc and smartphones all together...i apologize in advance!

so my friend had this htc lying around and said i could have it since my previous phone took a crap. it's on tmobile so i was going to have it flashed over to at&t.

however, the phone seems to be a brick....it will not boot past the initial "stick together" screen.

yes, i tried the hard reboot...pressing and holding volume up+volume down+power button. it takes me to the screen asking if i want to reset the device..i hit volume up to confirm. it goes through the reset. i hit volume up to boot the device. it gets to the "stick together" screen, vibrates 7 times, and freezes.

well, it was doing that anyway...but only when plugged in. the little orange light used to turn on when i connected the charger--now nothing.

and now it won't let me into the hard boot screen again. just...black. removing the battery and replacing it does not work.

i had taken it to the gentleman to flash it to at&t, not knowing this problem existed. he called me (because i left the phone there, since he had a line of people) to tell me the phone was freezing on that screen. i gave him the ok to do what he called a "hard wipe". i went back for the phone this morning and he said he did the hard wipe, and it was still freezing--told me the phone was only good for parts at this point.

so i took it home. i plugged it in, and i did what i described above.

what the heck do i do?! i would love to be able to rescue this phone! like i said, i'm totally new to all of this so if you're going to throw terms at me like RUU (which i saw all over this site), i have no idea what you mean so please post a link to another thread or something that can explain these things to me, if you do not want to do so yourself.

oh, my friend also said she had put an at&t sim card into the phone (unflashed, still on tmobile) before and tried to turn it on...but nothing happened. could that be what caused the problems?

UPDATE: took the battery out for approximately 10 minutes. put it back in, and the phone turns on again...one short vibration while the screen is still black, then the "stick together" screen pops up and the phone vibrates 7 more times....annnnnd freezes again. its also starting to get very hot on the bottom, backside...
[HD2 General] bojanbl:
Did you try to cool down your phone?
[HD2 General] gina_michelle109:
not exactly. left the battery out for upwards of an hour before i went to sleep last night. then left it off, but on the charger all night. the orange light was on at first, when i woke up it was green.

now it's stuck in a boot loop. just as i was reading your reply, it made it to the windows screen that said it was preparing it for first use...but went black and looped back to the "stick together" and vibrated at me 7 times again. seems to once again be frozen =\

i'm going to give the phone back to my friend today, her husband seems to think he can fix it. but if you have any more suggestions, please keep them coming! i will keep him updated and pass along any instructions and ideas on how to save it!

thank you!

---------- Post added at 05:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 AM ----------

forgot, should have mentioned it did not heat up after all night on the charger.
[HD2 General] bojanbl:
You have overheating motherboard problem... I am sure that it will work only when it is cooled down... But than it is not usable phone :( I had one HD2 with same problems...

As you said it worked at first after leaving it only on charging. CPU on motherboard has cooled down and you could start your phone until it got heated again...
[HD2 General] gina_michelle109:
i've given up on it. as it wasn't really my phone yet (i hadn't paid my friend for it yet), i just gave it back to her. i explained what's going on and pointed her towards this forum in case she wanted to try n fix it on her own. so keep the answers coming, if anyone else has anything to add!! thanks guys =)
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
Bro Bojanbl,

I put my phone to fridge for 5-10min and more also samething, still stuck in white screen.

I think there is something wrong and dunno where wrong .....

Anyway thank to all guy for helping me .....

Is there anyone know where I can do JTag in my country Malaysia or any one can fix my phone in my country.

:(:(:(:(:(:(
[HD2 General] tomguyz:
Hi,

I think you have a same problem with my phone..... cool down also won't work for me right now ... but I still able to boot but still stuck in the main HTC white screen. I think it should be some hardware issue and I send to a shop to figure out the problem and wait for the cost of repair....

I can tell this is the good phone and nice to be use .... From the Windows phone to an android phone .... but too sad it won't last long enough for me even my old nokia E71 still alive and running smooth .....

:(:(:(:(:(:(
[HD2 General] bojanbl:
Did you try to repeat installation process after cooling down the phone

(task 29, magldr, cwm or install from sd card method)?
[HD2 General] taufan36:
Try to do task29, maybe something stuck in nand so it cant be boot normally... I never have problem like yours but many problem with mine i always do task29...

Hi!

I've been looking for a new keyboard for my Desire Z for quite some time, but can't seem to find anyone who can supply just this part or even just the pcb membrane (that's the part that's broken).

Does anyone knows were I can get one?

I attached a picture of what i need...

Thanks

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killj0y:
Yup that's what I figured, might have to look outside your comfort zone to find that. I'm thinking Chinese website or something lol. I'm sure it isn't a commonly replaced part. Those membranes rarely fail. the only thing they usually need is a cleaning. Have you tried that? Or is it actually torn/broken? If so how'd that happen?

Might have to find a cheap parts desire a on Ebay....
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dogboda:
I had the problem when i replaced the lcd screen... damaged the connecting ribbon when reassembling the phone :( my bad, i know.

i have been trying to find everywhere but no luck, the picture i show is from a Chinese site but they only sell the full body, not that piece in particular.

thanks anyway... if you stumble upon something, please let me know.

Hello ,

Skype yesterday released a new version of skype saying to improve video quality for tegra 2 devices but for me (i made tests) the video quality is STILL extremely BAD, I'm not talking about the obvious compression but the video quality sent and received.

I suppose the resolutions are around 320x240 but on the 2x seems even less. The worst part is that on 2x even the video received from a computer webcam is so pixelated like a

very

bad upscale is applied.

In the next week I'll be able to test a Hummigbird device to see how the quality is.

My question:

How does the syncing work. Because I have about 10 people in my gmail contacts. Will Android just add all my contacts from my phone (about 250) to the contacts in gmail, or will it take my 10 contacts in gmail and delete the contacts in my phone.

[Acer Iconia A500] Wond3r:
First off, I have an android phone, motorola atria.

I have a 32gb wifi iPad, and a chance to trade it for either an acer a500 or samsung galaxy tab 10.1 4g. It would be a straight trade. Would you do it?

I like the apps for the iPad, and there are great games for it. This is my only major road block right now. Hardware wise, I would trade for either one easily, but it's the software side that's keeping me from the simple trade.

Are there apps for android that are specifically made for tablets like iOS and their "hd" version of apps?

It seems the quality of apps and especially games are better right now for iPad?

Ps. In general I do prefer android, I would never trade my atrix for an iPhone. I'm speaking just tablet wise right now.
