I had that same issue with handcent at times, instead of rebooting just go into manage applications and clear data in handcent. That seems to fix it for me and doesn't take as long as a hard reboot.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yeah, handcent is full of bugs and problems. it's just gotten worse with each update, wouldn't surprise me if it were the cause. i like how handcent looks more so (because you can do non-bubble convos, and have their contact pic next to every single text), but for the most part, GO SMS is better. i never have that problem with go
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Really??

I have used handcent in mylast four phones and never had the slightest problem with it.

Every once in a while I get no network/3G. I've been receiving this ever since I rooted on 2.3.4

I always have to remove the battery/sim (multiple times,sometimes) to get it back working.

Has this ever happened to you? Is there a fix?
[Xperia Play General] The Alpha Gamer:
I get that sometimes after turning wifi off. Just go into settings and turn your 3G off and then back on again. That makes it start up again for me.

Hi all xda members I'm posting this in hopes to get a list of people who have the play and would like to see Onlive add a button mapping feature so that games that require r2 and l2 buttons work. I figure a get a lot of people to back me on this forward the link to the developer and low and behold games that required additional buttons would be playable assuming the developer would listen to potential customers. So post a positive affirmation of button mapping capabilities and I'll send it over to the developer.

And please feel free to post any ideas of work around for this problem I'm dying for some trine action on this play.

If anything, we need a solution for left/right thumbstick clicks.

A guy had a conversation with an OnLive rep about the situation (that can be found here: http://onlivefans.com/showthread.php?p=170555) and they said the the OnLive app for the Xplay was in it's early stages and it's possible that a solution could be found in future.

Obviously the rushed the Xplay optimization because wr kept complaining and they wanted to keep us happy.

I think a solution for left/right analog stick clicks for the Xplay would be to have them register when a person makes a double click or a hold of a button. Added onscreen controls would be better though.

[General Questions and Answers] rossyl:
Hi,

I mainly want a tablet for downloading and watching TV shows/movies, as well as browsing and listening to music.

So I need a tablet with access to content, a large storage for downloading the content and a decent browser..all for £200.

BLACKBERRY PLAYBOOK

The recent price drops of the Playbook seem to provide a very good tablet for a decent price (£200 for 32GB version). But the Playbook does not run Android and does not have access to movie/tv download content. Blackneryy is MEANT to be launching OS2.0 and a Blackberry movie store at the end of Feb. But what if it doesn't? Also, although it has a Android App Launcher it works as an emulator, so running certain apps (movies + download) I do not know how that will run.

IPAD 2

It is rumoured that the end of January we'll see an iPad 3 and the iPad 2 will be dropped to about £200 to compete with the Kindle Fire. I personally cannot see Apple dropping the price that far. I also would rather have an Andorid device than a Apple.

ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE?

The Kindle Fire only has 8GB storage, and who knows when it will be launched - its expected in January.

Samsung's are expensive, as are Motorolas.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

Thanks

[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
I have been trying to upgrade my htc magic 32a from 1.5 ever since I got it 10 months ago...but no success. One of the reasons I learned in my inquiry is that it is not possible to upgrade a "perfected spl" which is what I have. However, I have found several bloggers who claimed to have done so using ROM Manager, flashrec.apk, ADB, etc. But when I try any of the suggested methods, I eventually reach a failure message (can't be installed on this phone, force stop, etc) of some kind.

So here are my questions:

Was the blogger correct about the "perfected spl"? If I knew that for certain, then I would dismiss the claims of success as bogus, give up the ghost on this phone, and start looking for an upgradeable replacement!

If the answer to the above is no...meaning there is a procedure for upgrading my phone, then I would be forever indebted if someone can point out the way!

Desperate in Buenos Aires,

Laurie:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] firewall76:
if you use flashrec.apk, you have to enable the option to install application out of market.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
Perfected SPL issue

Although I appreciate your input, if you'll read my post, you'll see that I have tried flashrec.apk and I did it correctly allowing non-market applications.

"...ROM Manager, flashrec.apk, ADB, etc. But when I try any of the suggested methods, I eventually reach a failure message (can't be installed on this phone, force stop, etc) of some kind.

My question which I will repeat more clearly is this:

Is it possible to upgrade an HTC Magic 32A with a PERFECTED SPL...and if so, how do I do it?

Laurie
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] ll77:
I can tell you I HAVE read posts of people upgrading these phones. even changing the radio and spl on almost bricked ones.

My question to help you from here is :

Do you have a mytouch 1.2 (fender)

If so it says 32A but it is really a 32B board.

I have the fender and I used clockwork recovery, superwipe, and then ezTerry radio and spl update zips.

I suppose I should ask: upgrade 1.5 what?

If you just mean android 1.5

I used clockwork recovery and then put cyanogen 5 on. Easily

I have since put cm6 on and even cm7

All in all. Keep reading I read for days and days, but... Putting a rom on already rooted phone was easy. And very possible
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
Yes: I would like to upgrade from Android 1.5 to whatever!

No: I don't even know what a mytouch 1.2 fender is! When I boot up, the Airtel logo appears followed by "HTC Magic." There's a T-Mobile logo printed on the case above the screen and "With Google" on the back. Here's what it says I have in about phone:

Sapphire PVT (32A) Ship S-On H

Hboot-1.76.0009 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-12 (Dec 8, 2009)

Radio: 6.35.08.29

Type: EB11/32A

I cannot or do not know how to use clockwork recovery. In fact, I am not able to boot into recovery...only HBoot which has no options other than to reset or power down.

I have tried to download and install ROM Manager from Market but get an error saying that there is no such apk. When I try to install from the SD card, I am told that the apk is not for this phone. I have also tried to install it from AppBrain Market but repeatedly get an internet error "Please check your connection and try again." My connection is fine and I'm able to download and install a variety of apks...but none that help me change the rom. I am rooted by the way.

Any ideas?

Laurie
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] kanttii:
Fender means that it has an audio jack.

Have you read the Cyanogenmod wiki quide? First you need to have root access and an unlocked bootloader (hboot). Only after that you can start installing custom ROMs :)

Looks like you have the same phone as I do, so you should use this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Magic_%2832A%29:_Rooting_%286.35.x_radio%29

It's old but works. After that you can go forward on installing a ROM you like. Also you always have to remember to have correct radio/SPL versions (you'll learn about them with the guide) before installing software. Otherwise it won't boot.

This is what my phone looks like ATM:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] 5[Strogino]:
Your phone is pure 32A Magic, not fender or mt4g v1.2
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
Well then, I don't have an audio jack so my HTC Magic is not a Fender. And I have read...but not followed the Cyanogen Wiki because it specified the "HTC Magic (32A) with 3.22.x radio" while my radio is 6.35.08.29.

I did install ADB on my computer and I created a Gold Card both as per the Wiki instructions. However, I gave up on that method after repeatedly getting a "device not recognized" error.

I do have root access but not a clue as to whether hboot is locked or not. How would I determine that?

Sorry I'm being such a dimwit but I am soooooo frustrated with this phone. Maybe I should either just leave well enough (Android 1.5) alone...or find someone who has a clue to replace the guts of the device with a more adaptable OS.

Thanks for trying,

Laurie
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
No recovery & fastboot fails to install

I just attempted to follow the instructions from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK once again to install the SDK and fastboot on Windows 7 but the installation of fastboot failed. See screenshot attached.

In addition, I seem to have no recovery at all on the device. Booting from Home/Power brings up the Airtel screen where it remains until I remove the battery. Booting from Vol-Down/Power produces Fastboot which offers 4 options as follows:

<Vol Down> HBoot Mode

<Send> Reset Device

<Action> Restart to HBoot

<Menu> Power Down

Choosing <Vol Down> gives me:

<Back> Fastboot Mode

<Send> Simlock

Both <Send> and <Action> restart the device and of course, <Menu> turns it off.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I suspect that I cannot proceed with changing the radio or the spl without Fastboot on my computer...and I should not try to proceed without Recovery on the device. So what do I do?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] kanttii:
You need to run the installer as admin, and it's safest to run everything as admin since it's the easiest way :)

The recovery you have is the stock recovery so it won't show anything useful.

I followed this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Magic_(32A):_Rooting_(6.35.x_radio) and it worked perfectly!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
I did run the SDK installer as Admin and after a bit of manipulating managed to get fastboot where it is supposed to be. Then I attempted to follow the guide you suggested. However, when I try to "push adb"...I get a "permission denied" message and can go no farther.

So does having the "stock recovery" mean that I cannot enter recovery mode? Hanging up on the Airtel screen is to be expected? Then I truly don't understand. How do I back up my current ROM? And if things go wrong...which they can't because I cannot adb push anything to my SD card...then how do I recover?

I honestly appreciate your help...but I seem to have the device from hell and every time I hear how "easy" it is to do what I have not been able to do in a year, I want to tear my hair out!!!!

Laurie
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] kanttii:
Please try to follow the 6.35 instructions :)

Did you use a goldcard? Check the wiki for that too :D

You can probably try temproot and then backup with that - but SMS and some other stuff can probaby be backed up in some other ways. If you can't push anything to the sdcard, have you enabled USB debugging from the settings? You can also try to enable USB storage from the usb menu that appears when you connect your phone to your computer and put the files there that way. I can't really remember how I did it since it was such a long time ago :/

Don't worry, it's hard but not impossible!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
Yes...I have tried to follow those instruction as well as versions thereof listed below.

And yes...I have created a Gold Card as well as installed SDK, Eclipse, etc...but all to no avail.

When I read "Hey look. I just upgraded my HTC Magic (with the same credentials by the way) to Froyo...in only 10 minutes!" I must come to the conclusion that I am the problem in the sense that there is something that I am not getting. Consequently, my question is this:

Does anyone know of a technical service where I can send my device to have it upgraded professionally?

If it is in the general vicinity of Denver (CO)...that would be cool but at this point I'm willing to mail it. PLEASE HELP! The phone works just fine...but it is sooooooooo limited by Cupcake!

Try Spanish posts

Hmmm.... the science of the magic is a little hard to some few...

Have you tried Spanish tutorials?

There's also an Spanish page (h ttp:/ /htcmania .com) that can help you, because the Magic was first released in Spain

(if you are going for the spanish forums be careful! those use 32b motherboards)

BTW, if you want to upgrade, remember something, you must download 1= the recovery and 2= roms

To install them, you need to use a terminal emulator and all that.... (the forums w/download links also have an installation guide)

I wish you look n.n

and if you need help on how to install or root something... contact me (Y)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] LAFitz:
Yes...I need help!

Hola Cesar,

Thanks for your suggestions. Since I have the 32A motherboard, I don't want to risk bricking my phone by doing anything meant for the 32B. But I can surely use your help with the following which by the way, I have already tried:

Finding and installing the correct Recovery & ROM. I have been referred to a variety of each but haven't been successful at installing any as you can see from my list...even when following the respective installation guides.

Currently, I'm running a rooted phone with a perfected SPL with no recovery. No problems so far but I would love to upgrade to Froyo if that is possible. Another by the way: I just spoke to an Android specialist at Cricket who said he could do it...but didn't understand why I would want to since I'm not having problems with the phone - if it ain't broke, why fix it?

Laurie, The magic of the Magic is a pain!

Let's do this:

Turn of your phone and turn it on by presing back + power

That's the bootloader screen, then tell me what says there

second: Download any root app (like root explorer) and tell me if you can acces the root of your sd (something like / or try to go to /system/data and see if you can COPY an app to the SD). BTW, how did you rooted your phone?

for now, you must decide wich ROM you will use, tell me that and give me the link of the rom (if you want a reco' look for Ginger Yoshi)

That's all for now, do your homework an tell me that ^

p.s. I got root months ago using Universal Androot
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Catlish:
Search this!

perfect! for now, look for this

Hey, i recomend you SFM 3.0.2 (becouse for ginger yoshi is moooore work to do) ROM (look in devolp section, you'll also need one kernel (they're in the post for that). This steps are for that specific ROM, for ginger yoshi are different

put sfm & kernel on your sd, also download:

the engineering SPL 1.76.2007

Amon RA's recovery (RA-hero-v1.6.2)

Radio 6.35.10.18

Look for those things on the devolpment sections (use the search tool)

the recovery (i think) is in the htc hero version

without those files, you're death

you'll need more, but let me look those for you

Remember to read and check that the files are the same!!! you can find all those files, just reand and search
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Catlish:
Once you have that, do this

Ok, first check this!

-----------------------------------------

In your phone, download and install

-Terminal emulator

-----------------------------------------

You need to have in your SD the following things:

-SFM 3.0.2 ROM (.zip)

-(the kernel of your preference) (.zip)

-Amon RA's RA-Hero-v1.6.2 recovery (.zip)

-----------------------------------------

Now, you'll need this in your pc:

-"The roottools" (sdk and drivers for magic)

-6.35.10.18 Radio (.img)

-Eng SPL 1.76.2007 (.img)

-Amon RA's RA-Hero-v1.6.2 recovery (.img)(This one must be decompressed)

(ensure the files are zip and img as correspond = unzip files that need to be unzipped, the others DON'T)

-----------------------------------------

Uncompress Roottools.rar and you have the folder "roottools"

Put that folder in C:\ (your hard disc drive = computer > local disc C:\)

and now put the 6.35.10.18 Radio (.img), RA-Hero-v1.6.2 recovery (.img) and the Eng SPL 1.76.2007 (.img) in the folder C:\roottools\windows\

-------------------------------------------

Now, rename the things this way (without moving them)

ROM SFM..........zip > rom.zip

(your kernel).....zip > kernel.zip

Radio 6.35.......img > radio.img

Ra-hero-v1.6...img > recovery.img

Eng SPL 1.76....img > hboot.img

Ra-hero-v1.6....zip > recovery.zip

------------------------------------------

For now, let's leave it this way, and here's one more question:

wich ROM you want to use?

there is a few steps to keep going, tell me, you can go to old radios 3.22 an install ginger yoshi or the new radios (but... to go new ones, you must try a lot to finally do it, is very complicated) for SFM

in any way, search for a thread called How to upgrade to 1.76 spl and 6.35.10.18 radio (and revert too)

remember, i told you to download new radios and spl, (for sfm) check ginger yoshi's post to check wich radios use..

then, following that thread you can upgrade...

there's also an easier way to change the radios check this spanish post

Ah, only remember this

THERE IS A BIG RISK TO BRICK YOUR PHONE WHILE UPDATING RADIOS

put it that way to be shire you'll read it ^

tell me what you gon'na do and i will help you

cheers
