Where are you getting this information from?

Not once did I have (nor have other people) wipe everything on kernel updates. You do not have to wipe everything for a kernel flash...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] P4p3r1n0:
cool! thanks! good to know (: I read a bit everywhere.

I mean, I know how a kernel is, and thinking about it it's true that is not needed to wipe, but if he has some problems he could try this out :/ maybe a fresh installation of everything could be good
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Don't go throwing it around like it is! This goes for thomassafca, DeanBoro, KieranFTW and the whole host of developers who have recently been trying to make their phones beat tougher surfaces. You see, you don't need to make those kinds of tests on your devices :D

Mine got broke in a fight, the only thing wrong with it though is a grey line down the left and some ghost effect on the screen, but for now I don't think it needs replacing.
[Xperia Play General] paxChristos:
So for future reference, you should not use your Xperia play to block fists/elbows/knees/kicks, it will break your screen... :p

[HTC Inspire 4G] spcclark:
Hey everyone, thanks for looking at this and hopefully helping me out. I'm new to rooting my phone and installing new roms and stuff, but I researched about as much as I could for about a week before I even rooted.

Now I've moved on and installed a new rom (CM7). Before installing I used clockwork and formated the /system, /data, /cache, and dalvik. At first everything was ok, but after about 15 minutes it turned off. I read up on battery problems, so kept my phone plugged in all weekend (got up to 4.196V-ish, with 0mA in or out) then deleted the battery file, rebooted, unplugged the phone and let it drain completely (even while it still had a charge it would turn off randomly but I figured it would be ok). After it was completely drained I completely charged it again and it still randomly turns off.

At first I thought maybe it was just the rom, but no one else seems to have the same problem as me (that I can find), so I downloaded an ICS rom to try that. Same problems. So far I have done the following to try and find out WTF is going on...

Installed Elixr to see battery drainage (sitting at main screen doing nothing its roughly -8mA, but right after boot or opening a program it jumps to -300mA to -480mA)

Done NUMEROUS battery pulls (with and without deleting the battery config file)

Switched ROMS

Any help would be amazing

PS: Before rooting or flashing a new mod my phone would shut off on its own, but only once a week, maybe. Now it turns off as soon as I unlock my sim card. However, it doesn't turn off at all if I have it plugged in.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
Well, if you were having this issue before the rooting took place, this very well may be hardware related. There are a few things I recommend before the dreaded unroot and send back to manufacturer route (assuming the phone is under warranty still). It's been proven or at least shown that battery calibration (the whole charge to 0Ma and then fully discharge and then recharge) is a pipe dream.

I would first say find out if the CM7 ROM you're using is OCing or UVing, while you may see some people OCing to 1.3 or higher and UVing -75, not all phones are created equal in capabilities and some phones will randomly freeze/turn off if they don't like your OC and UV settings. I would also suggest flashing a different ROM to see if this problem persists. Cleardroid is what I recommend just to get an idea if it is in fact a OC or UV problem as I believe cleardroid is set up to default stock settings.

You can also try a new battery, I have heard/read/seen that bad batteries can cause reboots. Again though if this was an issue you were sometimes experiencing before, you may have hit the tip of the iceberg on a hardware issue and its finally starting to show now. Hope this helps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
I guess the issue is with the battery itself. Try getting a new battery. I heard some guys experiencing the same and sorting things out replacing the battery....:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Leave the charger plugged in. If it doesn't reboot then that will let you know most likely it is the battery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] spcclark:
That was my thoughts exactly. However, if the ROM or kernel or whatever is set to shut off the phone at a certain reading of discharge from the battery, ie -500mA, this could also be the problem.

I thought it could have been a problem with the phone as well, but before it would shut off on its own MAYBE once a month. 90% of those I attributed to overloading the phone, closing facebook, opening the internet, starting to load a webpage then open a new txt I just recieved while the phone was still vibrating type things.

Now it still feels like it's just quitting on me, it never turns off while the screen is locked or while its charging. So far after the new ROM it has shut off when I place a call, when I receive a call, clicking on a notification, opening the messaging app, clicking download in the market, and my favorite when I unlock it from sleep.

I will download a different rom right now and try it. Just to double check this is what I've been doing to install a new rom... I boot my phone into recovery (vol- and power), go to recovery from the boot screen (opens clockworkmod), scroll down to mounts and storage, have it format /system, /data and /cache, go back to wipe data/factory reset, then install zip from sdcard, select the rom and go... I know some roms require inspiremod, should I still install this if I'm USING an inspire??

Thanks for the input guys, I really appreciate it
[HTC Inspire 4G] JustaBowla:
If it does turn out to be the battery or you just decide to get a new one to test it out. I recommend these, they are awesome and the only thing anyone should try besides HTC factory replacements. Good luck and I hope this works out for you.

Anker Batteries
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
i only skimmed this. but cleaning battery contacts can help also check the side door, sometimes that can cause issues as well. air can out everything and clean metal contacts with rubbing (ipa) alcohol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] spcclark:
So I installed cleardroid. Once again everything worked fine for the first 10-15 minutes and then the shutdowns started again, always when making the phone do something (unlocking, clicking a notification, opening a program, etc) but never when the phone is charging.

I'll clean off every bronze or gold contact I can find but I think I might be fighting a lost cause lol. Three different ROMS, all with the same problem leads me to believe its a hardware issue. Since all the chips in these phones are all small and use multilayer boards I won't be able to replace anything myself so I see a new phone in my near future.

Thanks guys!
[HTC Inspire 4G] toxicpaulution:
If it doesn't do it when its chargeing then it is the battery. I had bought my inspire from someone and it was having those issues ordered a new HTC stock battery from newegg for like $12 and has been working perfectly since then and honestly if you want the best battery rom absolution is the rom you should check out. It's a non sense rom but again I'd just buy a new battery. I had mine timed it'd reset at 92% 74% and 49% xD
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
hmm, I would say try a new battery before getting a new phone. Worst case scenario is that you spent $15 to learn you need a new phone as opposed to spending $100+ on a new phone...this is of course assuming you want to keep the inspire and not just looking for a reason to get upgrade ahaha ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I agree. It still sounds like a battery issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pazzo02:
I would agree this definitely sounds like an internal short in the battery. Sounds like it's shutting off whenever it gets a significant load on it. Try a new battery first.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tynmanz:
I had a similar issue though I was tweaking the CPU. Learned my lesson.
[HTC Inspire 4G] josh.c.4566:
Yeah, Id bet money that its a bad battery. I had this same exact issue with my Inspire. If it shuts off more in low reception areas but it isn't shutting off when plugged in, its definitely the battery. I would try to find someone with an Inspire and try switching them batteries and see if it stops.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rllebaron:
If I tried to use the flash with my camera, the phone would shut off. My phone would randomly reboot or turn off. ATT told me they had "some" bad batches of batteries. My phone was still under warranty so ATT sent me a new battery. All the problems went away!
[HTC Inspire 4G] jimcasey1768:
The battery door on the Inspire becomes wonky the more you open it, I was having a problem like yours, new battery and new door has me going good.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigran80:
I am trying to setup a WP7 Outlook, but it won`t connect to a company Exchange Server.

Always getting error- Error code: 80072EE7.

I have read on web that certificates needs to be installed on wp7. I did it, but no luck.

I used to synch this exchange account on my HTC Evo 4G.

Any ideas how to fix issue?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killerb255:
I wish WP7 had a better way to load self-signed certificates.

Best way to install a cert is to e-mail it to yourself using a Gmail account, set up the Gmail account on WP7, open the e-mail and the resulting certificate attachment, and then install the certificate.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigran80:
Thanks for response,

But,

Everywhere on web people talking about certificates and no one says which particular cert needs to be installed.

I tried with verisign, Microsoft root authorication and other kind public certificates. But issue still persist.

Who knows where can I get the exact certificate from?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCOAFZ:
Also make sure you are putting in the local domain

(whateveryourdomain.local)

It is required for WP7 unless your username has the domain in it.

For cert... here is what one user said...

1. went to google chrome on my desktop, spanner, options, under the hood, manage certificates.

2. go trusted root certificate authorities.

3. found the certificate from our server.

4. exported it as a DER encoded binary X.509 (.cer) file to the desktop

5. emailed it to my godaddy account on my WP7 phone.

6. clicked on the link installed it AND THEN created the outlook account on my WP7 phone.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOT HAVE ANY OUTLOOK ACCOUNTS ACTIVE WHEN INSTALLING THE CERTIFICATE.

thanks for all your help guys!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigran80:
yes, sure I have local domain:

\whatever - this is what i used on android outlook settings.

how to know which one is our server certificate?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCOAFZ:
in WP 7 though you don't need a slash. just the domain name when it asks for it.

For the cert... can you get to your mail server via web mail?

For ours in IE9, i just click the lock by the address bar and hit view certificate. Also if you know your Exchange admin, ask him to send it to you via the hotmail account. they you can just click on it and install it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigran80:
I believe we do not use any certificate. probably we use public certificates. i do not see lock next to address bar.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCOAFZ:
Does you host require on device encryption?

Does your company provide instructions for other phones? I may be able to tell you or translate them to how it works in windows phone.

No lock? go to advanced in account and uncheck ssl. I think its on by default.

If that doesn't work pm me the the web outlook address an i can tell u if there is one on there at least.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigran80:
still cannot synch my outlook account. is there any new ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCOAFZ:
The only thing left i can say is talk to your exchange admin / tech support. All the settings seem correct for a normal setup. Maybe they are using on device encryption... the only thing that windows phone really doesn't support for exchange, or maybe there is a setting we don't know that they will tell you.

The questions to ask are -

Does it require on device encryption?

Is the certificate required the same one outlook webmail uses as that is the one i walked you through installing?

Is the mail server address the same as outlook webmail minus the owa?

What is the local domain of the mail server? (that is different then the mail server address in most cases)

Does the username have to be whole email address? domain\username? or just username

Does the exchange admin have to add my phone?

Hope that helps get your questions answered.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] black06c230:
I need some help also. I had my exchange account on my phone until my comp did server upgrades. This knocked me off as they say this will only support Blackberry and iPhone, don't ask me why. So I was able to setup my exchange account on my Android Epic 4g after trying for a week, as I figured if an iPhone can access it my Android should also. But I have tried the same settings from my Android phone on my WP7 and no luck.

After reading this it looks like I need to follow the above mentioned steps to manually add a sec cert to get it working just right?

I really want my exchange account on my WP7, sucks trying to be on the phone and not be able to download attachments cause you are talking on the phone that gets the email.

Any help would be great!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Did you mean to include a URL or two in there? Anyhow, setting up WP7 to work with Exchange should be pretty easy, although I'm not sure it will do EAP with anything older than 2007 (though IMAP on older servers will work fine). Both of my phone's synced Exchange accounts were set up easily and automatically by just telling it to add the email address; it found the servers and automatically configured the accounts.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCOAFZ:
Did they post instructions on what was needed to get an iphone on it? Should be similar with windows phone. For the cert, once you get it, email it to your hotmail and open it. THat will install it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] black06c230:
once i click the lock and see the cert. how do i get it to send it in an email?

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

other co-workers have their iphone's working just fine. I will get a hold of one and see if any settings in there make it work.

but again i got it setup on my android phone without much issue and those same settings won't work on my WP7. it errors about the cert.

as stated I can click the lock and view the cert from web access but how do I email it to myself? i don't see a export option.

lastly, they block any IP but intranet IPs to access the mail.companydomain.com so the cert from there may not even help?!?!?

to access mail from home/laptop i have outlook setup so no need to access via the web.

any help you can give to get this working would be great!! and yes IT won't give my squat.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whatdoyaknow:
Have you tried manual setup. That's what mine requires. I put in my email address and password but it never gets it. I then click on manual and add

Login name: whatdoyaknow

Domain: ad.xxx.com (actually mine is more complex than that, but start with ad.)

Server: exchange.xxx.com (again more complex)

I need certificates for most things, but this seems to work ok.

Actually I still have problems getting WM6.5 to connect, but WP7 goes ok with the above.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lemonoid:
There is an issue with motorolas and not being able to charge while flashing firmware using RSDLite, unless you have the factory programming cable, so you kinda need to have almost a full charge. Is this the case as well with Samsung/Nexus devices? The reason I ask is because it causes a whole bunch of issues if for some reason your phone gets wiped and has a low battery. With Motorola, if your phone has no firmware on it for some reason, it stays on the programming (fastboot) screen until it is flashed with new firmware, and you can NOT charge while on this screen. Its not a problem I'm having I just am curious because I've never had the issue with my Samsung and I've just used Odin for the first time

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
I'll put my money on charging working while FLASHING, not in the bootloader though (or maybe just not much in the bootloader). From my quick checking:

Off: Charging (and it can stay off even with no ROM as far as i'm aware)

Bootloader: 50mA used by USB (this is the "fastboot screen")

Recovery (CWM Touch): 500mA

Booting into android: 500mA

Android: 500mA

Interesting.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
i think so , when you conect to USB.

you can do a test , like flash ROM and do setting , and then re-flash other one ...etc , eventually you will see battery gets charged...

but sometimes , do high CPU usage process or something like that , will not charge...
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] robrj:
So I was looking for an app that would allow me to download programming to my phone for use while traveling (airplanes). Most options were streaming only which doesn't work well on planes, especially if they don't have wifi.

So I tried out Jetflicks. It's $50/year for unlimited viewing (mostly tv programs). It's also put up as a streaming app but I found out you can get it to download the movie for watching at a later time using Opera Mini.

When you click on the streaming link for a particular show, it asks what program to use to watch it. If you choose Opera Mini, Opera will give you the option to download it as an mp4 file. It didn't work with Opera Mobile.

I was able to download an entire season of 24 (watch out for your data limits). The quality on the lapdock is okay (looks a little pixelated) but it at least gives you something to watch to pass the time.

[EVO 4G General] kingdavidbaker:
For the past week or so I have suddenly had terrible reception while at work. My signal seems to constantly bounce between 6 bars and 0 bars...then to roaming which behaves the exact same way...then back to sprint. I have tried upgrading and downgrading the Radio/Wimax/etc and I always seem to get the same results. Sometimes my phone shows full coverage but when I call it just rings and rings without ever actually ringing on my phone. I was originally on MikG 3.0, then moved to Sprint Rooted OTA, now I'm using Team Nocturnal Stock ICS themed. At first I thought it was an issue with the update or radio but since I have reverted to older versions of both the radio and gingerbread itself and the issue persists I'm at a loss. I am told that no towers were removed or anything.
[EVO 4G General] LostTank:
It could be a hardware issue. A friend of mine who also has an Evo had that happen. When he took it to the Sprint store they told him it was an issue with the antennae having somehow disconnected within the phone. So if anything I'd suggest try taking it to them for this.
[EVO 4G General] mbaseball3:

I would say def hardware, take it to a store so they can check the antenna. Might just switch it out.
[EVO 4G General] kingdavidbaker:
Haha....I gotta say I started laughing when I read this. Then I started to realize that today my reception is back to its usual fantastic state. I've been playing with it all morning and I have yet to get terrible reception or roaming. Coincidentally the effects of the solar flare have just dissipated I believe. Granted it seems like very few people had this problem and I would think if it was the solar flare it would have affected far more people but I can't deny the possiblity.
