[HTC EVO 3D] valdesr11:
I need help with my Google voice and re-integrating my Sprint mobile number with it. I guess a while back I un-integrated the number and now it wont let me re-integrate it again. I don't want anything to do with the Google voice number, I want to use my Sprint number for everything but every time I try to enable it, it gives me an error and I heard its because I had un-integrated it before. Any way around this? I have some more information below that might help you help me

When I try to change my Google voice number to my mobile number, I put it my sprint number and click on option 1 which is Use your sprint mobile number with Google voice, I click continue and get the following message: "Unfortunately, Google voice cannot be enabled on this Sprint phone. Please contact sprint for more details as to why this cannot be enabled." It is currently showing the number Google voice gave me.

When I click on check eligibility for sprint integration (using my mobile number) under "forward calls to" and click on option 1, verify my phone, it tells me the following: Unfortunately, Google voice cannot be enabled on this Sprint phone. Please contact sprint for more details as to why this cannot be enabled. I did this and they told me to try the following day but its the same thing over and over again.

Activating Google voice mail on this phone DOES work but its useless without the full integration.

Any ideas on how to fix this is very appreciated. I am regretting the day I un-integrated it.

Thanks!

Nice guide.. Thx
[HTC EVO 3D] scottspa74:
I wish I would have seen this guide last night. Well, before I finally broke down And installed GV. I think I probably didn't do it this way, but I'm afraid to just clear data and uninstall/reinstall for fear it'll mess something up.

Any tips on safe uninstall of this?

Much thanks.

Hmmm. I must have done something very wrong. Haven't received a call in 3 days. Just found out no one can call me and I can't call out.

When I try to call out , it sounds like a rapid busy signal (if anyone remembers those lol)

When people try to call me, they hear the 'call cannot be completed at this time' msg.

Only thing I've changed recently (that I'm aware of), is I disabled the annoying call screening.

Ideas?

Edit: I just noticed in my call settings, where you pick your voicemail service, Google voice is not even an option, only 'My Carrier'

God I wish I hadn't set this up while drinking. I just wanna know the safest way to undo/uninstall and start over.

I have one issue with google voice and it is if it was possible to only get voicemail set up and it not sync text messages. If it wasnt for that I woukd probably pay for the app even though its free. If someone could figure this out let me know.

Yeah, that's exactly how I use it. I have GV for vmail and using GO for texts. Have only got a robo-call on vmail so far, but texts are working like a champ. Just follow the instructions and be flexible for the newer look of some screens, though it's easy to figure out the proper choice. Good luck! :D

Hey,

this questions probably been asked before but I couldn't find a solution. Is there a way to stop the stock music player from taking control of lockscreen controls/headset controls?

[HTC Rezound] tifford:
Basically, I'm thinking about trading in my Nexus for an HTC Rezound. Don't get me wrong: I freaking love this phone, and have been dying to get it for months. There's nothing wrong with it.

My issue is that I'm a flash-o-holic. Now that the Rezound has an unlocked boot loader, I'm worried that it will have more ROM options.

With the Rezound, I'll eventually be able to run ISC. it can run sense roms. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like with the Rezound I'd be able to flash everything I could with my Nexus PLUS all of the 2.3 and Sense roms, right? and that means more options.

So, I need some clarification:

Can the Nexus run anything other than 4.0 based roms? (like 2.3 based ones)

Can the Nexus potentially run a Sense rom?

With the bigger development community of the Nexus, am I better of staying where I am?

I had an Incredible before, and was in love with it. GREAT dev community and tons of ROMs and development even to this day. I liked CM7 and MIUI, but I put a huge value on always being able to come back to Sense. One of my concerns with the Rezound is that the development and the development community will die after a couple months and the next bigger, brighter HTC phone comes out.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
If you like sense, then I would highly recommend the Rezound. If you don't, then the Nexus is the way to go. That is what made the decision for me.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
I don't see why you would want to go back to GB after being on ICS. I really doubt the Nexus will be able to run a sensed based ROM. It is very difficult to port sense over to other phones from what I have heard. Development will definately heat up for this phone! You just have to give it some time since we just got the unlock today. Look at the Tbolt it's still being developed for... Hell even the OG Droid still has some development. Idk how long you plan to keep your device for, usually 1 year to 1 1/2 year is the max for me. I'm sure there development for that amount of time if not longer.

The Rezound just isn't "another HTC phone" so you don't have to worry about it fading away. I'm sure there will be enough ROMs for the Rezound to satisfy any crack flasher. So in the end it's your choice, you just need to weigh all the options against each other.
[HTC Rezound] AndroidGraphix:
We have some of the best devs on this phone including themers. I have no doubt you'll have plenty of roms and themes to flash. I personally plan to port all five or six of my themes over once I have scott's base. Side note : My themes are usually not posted on xda. For those that know me, I haven't posted here for some time.

I'm pretty sure there's a sticky here that list all the devs that have committed to working on the Rezound.

Sent from my newly unlocked Rezound.. Thank you HTC.
[HTC Rezound] tifford:
i guess I just got used to switching up roms every couple weeks or so with my incredible. I'd run a sense rom for a couple weeks, get bored with it, switch to cm7 for a couple weeks, switch to miui, etc.

I don't like the idea of finding one rom, and sticking with it forever, even if all others are "inferior." I like to mix it up.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winggie:
A Brief Overview:

When the phone goes to sleep (either after a time limit or manually hitting the power button to force sleep), it doesn't ring for incoming calls. The screen does show up with the details of the incoming calls but it doesn't ring or vibrate. However, if the phone is awake (the screen is on the home page), then it rings.

ROMs tried:

StreakDroid 2.2.2, 2.4.4

Stock ROMS 2.2.2, 2.3.3 (appropriate recovery installed)

Troubleshooting steps tried:

Nandroid Backup

Factory reset

reinstall the correct rom (Sometimes StreakDroid, sometimes Stocks)

Restore data

Root

Manually put the phone to sleep can call it only to find that the screen lights up with incoming caller details but no ring.

Waited for the phone to sleep after 30 seconds (that's the setting), then called it again. Caller details show up but no ring.

Prevented the streak from sleeping and called again. It rang this time.

It's similar to this but that resolution talks about wm, not android.

Cannot find a way to fix it and it's bugging me a lot. There are no calling profiles installed. I once used inEar app which managed ringing profiles but that was long ago and done a factory reset after that. Dunno if that messed it up or not.

I don't think it's an issue that others are facing... but it's been going on for a while for me. I don't wanna to believe that it's a hardware issue because it rings everytime the phone is awake and message notifications (txt, mms, whatsapp, email etc) work even when sleeping but incoming calls don't.

Can anyone help me? Thanks

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- FIXED -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

I tried Permission Denied, which told me that an app had access to my calls.. I couldn't remove that access for that app but I cleared the data for that app and uninstalled. That worked perfectly.

The app in question is called GBlocker. It blocks calls from unwanted people. I think any app that can block calls might have the same problem so be careful when you install them.

@Winggie: Switch ROMs. Seriously. StreakDroid development has stalled and the ROM has some bugs that haven't been fixed unlike other Gingerbread ROMs such as DSC.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fysty-1:
Good day all. I will start by saying that I am far from the techno wizards that appear to be here on this site. I know that it is stated to research which I have done but unable to post on the development sites as I am a nubie but that wouldn't have helped @ all as what I read seem like a total foriegn language to me. I would like to have my Streak upgraded to Gingerbread or higher but don't know where to go to get er done. The following quote is what I posted on my Goldwing sites as there are a bunch of very knowlegable gents there abouts & one of them led me here. Here is my problem "I have been a little frustrated when it comes to some of the technology today. Also Frustrated with Dell & my wireless service provider. I bought a Dell Streak5 that was locked to Rogers, a little over a year ago & was able to switch from the Blackberry to the Streak5. At the time Rogers didn't offer the Dell but now they do but they say because I bought the phone directly from Dell(@ double what Rogers wants for it), then it is up to them to upgrade the OS. Unfortunately due to the fack that I have done a fully default on my Dell account (not just the phone by the way), they won't do anything for me either. I know that if I want to increase the OS of my computer, I just take it to a computer store & they will upgrade to the higher model (for a price of course). Does anyone out there know how I can upgrade to gingerbread or ice cream Android on my own? I presently have Fryoto 2.2.1. Dani's phone (which we just got) was updated to 2.3.4 less than 2 weeks after we got it. It is beginning to look like I may be stuck with a 600 dollar phone that is massively outdated & I really do love this big phone." Thanks all for your help in advance. Angela aka fysty-1

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
If you did research, you didn't research hard enough. The basic information is in the wiki or a thread titled "Everything you wanted to know about the Streak but were too busy bricking it". The specific information for the ROM you want to use can be found in that ROM's thread.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fysty-1:
Please excuse my ingnorance but if had read my post you would have seen that I stated that listening you folk talk is like my walking into a UN meeting with noone speaking english. I realize that you all are uber Geeks but I didn't know a geek was so unfriendly. I just asked if any of you all could point me to someone who DOES understand your language that could do the upgrade for me. I can barely use a computer & I do not run in the Hacker circles. I am a senior on a pension who happens to have & love the Streak. And because Dell nor Rogers will upgrade it from Froto, I need some to do it for me. (@ my cost BTW) thanks Angela:mad:
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You misunderstand me. I AM trying to help you by telling you where to find the information. To do things like this requires reading and understanding what you're doing, otherwise you will turn your Streak into a very expensive paperweight. So if it seems like Greek to you, stay on Froyo and enjoy your Streak.

These are the facts of the matter. No amount of kvetching at me is going to change them.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fysty-1:
Strephon, thanks so very much. Yes I may have misunderstood (not unusal fo mehehehe),but what I was asking, due to my very limited abilities in the field, I was asking if any of your 4mil member in westen Canada could link me to a business or individuale who could do this for me. When I mentioned being on a pension, I was refering to a Person with Disabilities pension so getting around is difficult. Thanks again, Strephon for your help. Angela

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winggie:
Hey mate, I'm on Stock 2.3.3 (the official ROM from Korea - "Olleh") and it still happens. I don't think it's a hardware issue. One thing I've noticed, the mobile goes to "mute" and then rings and mutes again when not sleeping. When sleeping, I think it goes to mute when an incoming call is received and then doesn't do nothing after. The mute situation never happens when i receive texts or other notifications.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Odd, because I've never encountered that on any ROM I've used. The fact you are encountering this issue on multiple ROMs does not rule out the possibility of a hardware problem and in truth strengthens the possibility. However, I believe it to be a software issue since I am willing to bet that if you went back to Froyo right now the issues you are having would stop.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winggie:
Mate, I agree with you totally that it means that hw is the problem but the reason I'm more inclined to believe that it's a software issue is because:

When I select "Vibrate always", it stops vibrating as well when in sleep mode.

When I select silent mode manually (volume to 0) then the phone vibrates even when sleeping.

The notifications work properly which means that the hardware is working fine. This includes any incoming txt, mails etc. It even rings for like 1 second for an incoming call and then mutes automatically. Looks like some app is manually putting it to mute on ringing. Although I can't find the root of the problem.

Is there an app that can read each setting that the phone has and allow me to view and edit them so that I can narrow down the problem?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winggie:
I haven't found a dual boot option or else I would have tried Froyo or even eclair (I think it was shipped with it). I don't wanna lose my game progress and i kno titanium backup and backup pro can help but sometimes they fail too.. and that's wot i'm concerned about.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Permissions Denied will allow you to view all the permissions an app requires, and selectively block those permissions you do not wish to give to an app. I'm not sure if that's what you're actually looking for, but it's about as close as I can think of at this time of night here.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winggie:
Thanks mate. I'll try that and get back to you.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Winggie:

HI. The phone is rooted with CheckRom RevolutionHD3.1.1 and Hellcat kernel 2.6.35. I am searching for a solution on the following issue:

I am unable to secure (lock screen) with a pin/pw/or pattern.

Action done: In settings->location &security->setup screen lock .... (I select appropriate option to secure with either pin/pattern/pw (tried it all)..

Test #1: reboot phone

Test #2: screen lock (15sec, 1m, etc).. leave the phone idle

Test #3: downloaded Widget Locker (select advance settings to 'retain system keyguard')

All tested and have failed to request a PIN # or Pattern to access the phone.

The guy who sold me this phone said it is due to the phone being rooted/rom?! Is this true?? IF yes, is there a fix to this issue?

PLEASE advise. thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Did you get phone with that ROM installed already?

Maybe try to wipe data and reflash the ROM clean and fresh (i.e. also format /system in CWM before applying the .ZIP to install the ROM).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S2_sos:
Yes, I rec'd phone with that ROM installed.

Also, this is all new to me (switched from Iphone Jailbreak world to Android App). ;)

Is there a site with simple instructions on how to restore back to original w/o bricking the phone (unsure if its the same as iphone)? Searched all youtube, and so far non-english speakers (italian vids). Other US vids isn't too clear with instructions.

Also, there's so many ROMs and Kernels to choose from.. Which one is the best one out there that is stable? Unsure if switching ROMs will damage the system so wanted to make sure I'm doing this right.

Thanks again for the quick response!! Appreciate it!!!

I hear you on the iOS->Android transition, was the same me.

As long as you stick to a few simple rules (also outlined in the thread above) you can't really brick the S2.

Just never break the bootloaders, as long as the bootloaders are OK, you can always go to download mode and flash a new stock ROM.

"Download Mode" is kind of what "DFU Mode" is on the iPhone - just way more reliable ;)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stretchwookie:
probably Go Launcher, as i am experiencing the same thing. tends to be worse the more intense the transition effect picked. ive only noticed it upon start up. correct me if im wrong, but the launcher needs to build a cache in order to increase scrolling speeds. so after everything loads fully and you swipe 2-3 times, its back to fluid motion. my recommendation would be to delete apps/texts/emails; pretty much any in-device memory and see if that helps. or, like me, you can just roll your eyes, grunt a lil, and deal with it lol
