[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] manekineko:
It used to be when I clicked a link to the Android market in the browser, it gave me the option to open it with the Market app. Similar things happened for Youtube, Yelp, and Wikipedia, which I had apps for.

I'm not exactly sure when it stopped working, or if it even worked at all on my T989, or if I'm remembering back to a previous phone. Does it work for anyone else?

I've tried this in different browsers (Samsung stock, Opera Mobile, Dolphin HD), and I've tried clearing the default app on web browsing, as well as using Default App Manager to clear the default apps set for Web Browser - www.youtube.com and all the other websites.

It just isn't presenting me with the option, and the web browsers are just opening the links themselves.

Any idea what's wrong?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
Since it supports 1700/2100, is there any reason that we wouldn't be able to use it? I see people mentioning that those bands are dedicated to LTE but why would that stop us from utilizing them?

http://www.microsoft.com/windowspho...oft.com/windowsphone/en-US/buy/7/default.aspx
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
Assuming those bands are unlocked I see no reason why it wouldn't work on T-Mobile's HSPA network.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] babymatteo:
+1. And usually only high Nokia handsets will have those bands. Only thing is that it might not be able to fully utilize tmo's "42mbps" speeds.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
As long as it can at least access 3G speeds, I'm good. That phone is a beast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Out of curiousity, what makes this phone a beast in your opinion? It just looks like a very average phone in my opinion. The design of the phone is nice, but in the end IMO it just looks like an average/below average phone. Low res screen and nothing cutting edge about it. I'm just curious why you say it's a beast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
It's a Super Amoled screen and the resolution is on par for WP7. The design is what has me drooling. It's a unique housing paired with a phenomenal camera lens and sensor. I apparently can't write a cohesive paragraph at 4 in the morning but those are the reasons I like the phone. By beast I didn't mean that it was superior in specs just that it was desirable. I just prefer minimalist design over chrome and aluminum accents everywhere.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
I see. I think on that we definitely would have to agree to disagree. The screen is a decent screen, but hardly anything phenomenal at this stage of the game. It isn't the only wp7 phone with a super amoled screen. The camera from what I hear is supposed to be pretty good so I'll definitely give you that. But all in all, a nice design on a phone and a good camera to me isn't really much to speak on. I think it's a pretty average phone in the sense that compared to its wp7 brethren it's pretty much on par with them (hence my use of the word average). It just looks a little better (to a degree..of course this is just opinion) and has a nicer camera. When compared to the rest of the smartphone market, this phone is average at best, and I'd go as far as saying you could make the argument that it is below average. I'd take a G2X (which came out 4/20/11), a Nexus S (12/10), and several other older phones over a lumia 900.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
I can agree with your assessment. However, at this point in the game I've stopped caring about specifications beasts. It seems that each generation of cell phone gets some phenomenal bump in processing power or camera sensor size and yet still doesn't revolutionize my experience. The only difference I've seen in any phone that I've used since upgrading from my G1 has been a purely aesthetic experience, Vibrant notwithstanding. That was a wreck. I do love my G2x, but I'm boring of the constant barrage of 'better' phones that don't do anything worthwhile. The Lumia 900 has been the first phone, design wise, that has caught my attention. I can agree that as far as specs are concerned, it is an average phone, but that does nothing to diminish my desire for the device. I rarely game. At most, I play a few emulators on a semi regular basis, so processing power really means nothing to me. I'm just not a power user, I suppose.

My interest in android has waned also. I've been using the operating system since the G1 and the WP7 platform has me intrigued.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArcticWolf91:
Is it possible to have a lockscreen that works like the slide to new message feature when you get a new message, but instead it just unlocks the phone? I think that is a much nicer method of unlocking the phone than the stock lockscreen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avarize:
Hope you don't mind the piggy back onto the thread but as a similar question, is there a way to attach the sliding message bar / notification lock screen onto Go SMS?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] number332:
Not sure how to start this...

first off, i'm pretty sure my phone now has a fried eMMC chip, but in reality, i don't really know...

the reason i say i think it's fried is because no matter what method i try to flash anything to my phone with...it simply won't do it...most fastboot commands will not work anymore, my computer won't load the devise anymore so no adb commands, bootloader fails everything when trying to flash a stock rom and gets hung up updating the radio_v2....i've tried running official RUU's but it keeps telling me my phone has less then 30% battery life, wich is simply false. and i can't get into my recovery without it crashing the phone and not letting me turn it back on (till battery pull).

i went onto the #g2root and #xda-devs channels on the freenode server in mIRC, and had talked to a couple people there who also think i probably fried the eMMC chip (making it impossible to write or read anything from the phone), but again...i'm really going on word of mouth rather then first hand knowledge here.

but again today, i ran into yet another possible solution and i just want to know if i should bother trying or if i have a chance.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1314629 is the thread, but i think this is for a desire s, so i suppose my question would be...would this method still work if i just used the right files or, again, am i screwed?

i have an HTC Desire Z that i got from Bell in Canada. it has gotten an OTA firmware update, and does not have root or s-off

if i remember right, everything is still stock, completely. minus the now possibly fried eMMC chip lol

thank you in advance and i will try to edit this post as neccessary so as to update any needed info.

please ask me questions as to what i have done and i will try my best to let you know. i know i had followed probably too many guides for rooting with too many methods lol next time, xda-dev's wiki guide, and that's it!

[edit:] i just found this too...lemme know if this helps..... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1284196

[edit:] i do know that when i go into my recovery, it does say those things (e: can't mount cache, blah blah) but it crash's out and doesn't actually get me into the recovery console. if so i would be able to envoke some adb commands and just finish this, but that's adding to the issue really...not being able to get into my recovery.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GottZ:
i feel with you.

it happend for me just today morning.

got my desire z on thursday, installed usual apps.

it started to freeze in random app installations. the last softreset threw it into a boot loop with the same problems you stated above.

you can get pre formated desire z emmc's for around 30 - 40 euro i think. but soldering them on your own requires some skill and tools since their contacs are below and not on the side.

this accident threw me back to my old htc touch diamond (with windows mobile 6.1 D: )
[HTC Amaze 4G] finaldark:
I recently purchased a "ikross USB to HDMI" adapter on amazon, supposedly supported by the HTC Amaze. However, when i plug the adapter in connected to my TV(s), nothing happens on the phone or tv.

Im guessing I need some kind of 'drivers' on the phone to enable this feature.

Also, my problem might be stemming from the fact that i am running Beastmod v2.2.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for these adapters?

Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] raiden9250:
I don't believe you purchased the rite thing, I was reading and interested in running hdmi from my amaze, I have read most places you need to purchase an MHL converter, that's why the plug on the phone is the funny square shape
[HTC Amaze 4G] hurrpancakes:
Mhl uses micro USB, so you don't need a special port on the adapter.

My guess for op is that it might be the ROM. I use bullet proof, and my Mhl to hdmi adapter works fine.

Final, try making a backup of your current ROM, flash a ROM with sense, and try again.

Edit: Also, this should be in accessories
[HTC Amaze 4G] raiden9250:
Huh I figured cause if you look in the port beyond the USB there are other pins I figured it requires a special plug to reach those pins
[HTC Amaze 4G] hurrpancakes:
The port on the Amaze is a proprietary HTC design, called EXTUSB. It allows the device to get more power while charging, but it is also backwards compatible with microusb cables.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gaww:
I got one of those, and it works IF you also plug a USB charging cable separately into the adapter - thanks for the stupid design HTC.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chrisb2e9:
In order to do the hdmi out can you use a miniusb or does the adapter have to have the extusb?

Edit:

Also if I am reading this right you need a TV with the MHL chip in it for this to work:

Sorry I'm not allowed to post links yet...

[HTC Amaze 4G] tppickles:
Wouldnt a standard micro HDMI to HDMI cable work? I typically use a standard micro usb cable to plug into my work computer without issue
[HTC Amaze 4G] chrisb2e9:
I'm confused, where are you plugging it into on the phone? Does microhdmi fit in the extusb port?
[HTC Amaze 4G] downloader123:
All wrong. A simple Google will show you that EXTUSB was the port HTC used in the days of the T-Mo Wing, G1, and myTouch 3G.

The miniHDMI connector does NOT fit the Amaze. I wish I knew what our port was called... I'll report in if I can find it. But I know it's not EXTUSB :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] jcparks:
I recently bought Cable Matters Micro USB to HDMI MHL Adapter from Amazon. I have had success using it on stock phone, quicksense v3.0.0 and currently beastmod 2.3.0.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Mr.Moo52:
Just to set the record clear. The port on the Amaze 4G is called an MHL connector. It's not a proprietary HTC port, but a seemingly new industry standard. Just search wikipedia for MHL and you can read all about it.

Punchline is that you get a single port that can output HDMI and connect via USB in one go. Supposedly with the proper adapter your phone will charge while connected to an HDMI source. You can definitely use a standard micro USB cable on the MHL port if you just need to charge or connect to a computer via USB.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikecristancho:
The one I bought, the power cable must be attached.
[HTC Amaze 4G] shirazir:
That's what Mr. Moo is getting at. MHL ports allows simultaneous output and charging; though I'm not sure they both need to be connected for either to work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jcparks:
In my experience, the MHL with power connected doesn't really charge the phone. My battery still drains slowly while connected. Is that just me?
[HTC Amaze 4G] hurrpancakes:
Happens to me too
[HTC Amaze 4G] ChromeJob:
HTC calls the port ExtMicro USB. It's backwards compatible with Micro-USB plugs (the five leads on the flange you see on the front), but the proprietary plug has 12 pins total.

I was getting intermittent performance with a Micro-USB MHL-HDMI adapter, and had to have a Micro-USB charger attached.

The HTC adapter for the Amaze (and Flyer, and Rezound) is AC-M500, a 12-pin adapter with HDMI-out, Audio-out (3.5mm) and an ExtMicro USB port. I have pics of these on WikiMedia, and in a thread in the Rezound section.

I wish I could tell you what the 7 additional leads do that a conventional MHL-HDMI adapter doesn't ... and HTC isn't talking. (US Tech Support couldn't even confirm the that the port is different, only the recommended adapter.) aLogCat recorded some HDCP messages when I connected the phone with this adapter to a Dell ST2410 24" monitor that's been reported for not supporting HDCP-controlled HDMI video. When I connected my Amaze to a Samsung T27A300 1080P HDTV, it worked fine.

Reply to USB to HDMI on HTC

I have same trouble last week. I bought a "usb to hdmi adapter" from Amazon as a cheap price last month. But it can't work. So last week , i got a new hdmi adapter from Hdgenius .Finally it is OK and can work normally. So maybe you can learn from me and get another new hdmi adapter to have a test.

Is there any reason why somebody WOULD NOT want the latest hboot version?

For example, the latest version (according to xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715485) is 2.16.0001. Yet I still see some members on here using 2.15.0001 and 2.10.0001. Is that because they just haven't gotten around to flashing the updated version? Are there are negative effects to having the latest hboot version? On that same website, it says some of the later versions are "not downgradeable". So why would you want to downgrade?

Also, in searching through threads, I think I've kinda picked up on a problem between certain hboot versions and certain Radio versions, that some versions are not compatible with each other. Is there any problem?

Thanks for the help!

Basic summary of questions:

1. Is it good to have the latest version of hboot?

2. Are there any negative effects to having X version of HBOOT versus Y version of HBOOT?

3. Would there ever be a point to downgrading your hboot, besides taking it back to the store?

4. Does X version of HBOOT conflict with Y version of RADIO?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
1. It is what it is, is just tells you what stock firmware you had; no hboot is better; though you could argue the .76 cuz of fastboot, though you can use fastboot regardless

2. Yes and no, just before 2.10, they can no longer be downgraded; the .76 also allows fastboot commands

3. You would only 'downgrade' really if you had to use evolutionary to go from 6.16 > 2.16 , and that is done for you in the unrooting process

4. No, the hboot won't conflict with your radio
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasongthang:
Thanks man, appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {ParanoiA}:
2. The only negative effect of having a hboot above 2.10 is you cannot run unrevoked forever which means that any future ota cannot s-on your phone if you have flashed unrevoked forever. Also dont go getting any ideas of downgrading your hboot unless it is for unrooting like roxxorz said cuz you will most likely brick your phone

Sent from my DECK'ed out EVO
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasongthang:
so if i dont plan on using any OTA's from sprint, i can just flash 2.16.0001 hboot and just run rooted roms correct? And then if I run the stock RUU to unroot back to complete stock, would that change the hboot?

or, if your recovery is still working, you can just flash a "Fruit Cake" to restore your phone to stock; see development section.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mixy:
Hi, after using my prime for about a day, ive noticed a couple of annoying things. Most importantly, my screen brightness is jumping a bit hen scrolling on web pages, or when chaning the picture.

Auto Brightness is obviously off, and this seems more like a dynamic-contrast thing i have on my TV. Really bugging me out.

The second thing is that Battery-info is useless, is there no way to improve this? I see that this is a bug that has been present since TF101, and i do suspect it to be caused by the funky 2-battery setup. Is there any other way to see my screen-on time?
