I'd advise against it. The Ports provide all the support. Suspect.
[Motorola Droid 4] StevePritchard:
To be fair, the Droid 3 only rests on the plastic at the very right hand edge. I suspect a little packing would enable the Droid 4 to do the same.

Cheers,

Steve.

[Motorola Droid 4] StevePritchard:
Nice pics - what's the background you have around the screen, and how did you put it there?
[Motorola Droid 4] LuH:
I bought this Atrix HD multimedia dock for my D4: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Motorol...harging-Station-w-HDMI-USB-Port-/160849023787

It works quite well, fits in only without any case though... The thing I love is that it has an IR remote, pretty handy when controlling it from bed :)

I had to customize it a bit though: for now I just flipped the micro USB upside down and removed the micro HDMI connector (it can't be flipped upside down easily as it is in a brick of plastic of bad shape) and will probably customize it a bit more when I have some extra time. I bought it mainly because of USB connectors there though so maybe I'll just buy a short micro USB m->f cable and have it laying next to the dock :) I don't like that it stands only on its micro USB connector in the craddle.

It gets normally recognized as dock and phone offeres docking modes, USBs work (tested working with various pendrives and a mouse even through additional USB hub, not working with an external HDD, possibly because of the NTFS file system on it), audio out works and remote works (top left button doesn't, it's probably some unsupported legacy, others - D-pad, menu, home, back, media back, play/pause, forward, vol down, mute, up - work well).

anybody try this

http://dx.com/p/compact-data-chargi...adle-for-motorola-droid-4-black-135432?item=1
[Motorola Droid 4] StevePritchard:
I think the biggest problem with that type of dock is that the phone doesn't recognise it's in it, and so will stay in portrait mode unless you open the keyboard (that's certainly the behaviour of Droid 3's anyway). Couple that with the fact that the power supplies that are supplied normally make the screens go bonkers if you try and use them, I've found that it's better to stick with the official media docks (even if the fit isn't great as they are designed for the Droid 3 - I think I bit of a cut-out of the plastic insert could make them a decent enough fit though).

Cheers,

Steve.
[Motorola Droid 4] StevePritchard:
FWIW I've been successful in making new inserts that fit the Droid 4 for the Droid 3 media dock. I made it out of Milliput, which is an epoxy putty that sets rock hard. The steps I took were:

1. Line the dock with masking tape.

2. Mix the putty, and roll it out flat. Let it cure for half an hour to make it a little firmer, and less tacky.

3. Line the dock with strips of putty.

4. Use a wet finger to smooth it all out and make it look tidy.

5. Wrap the phone in cling film and make small holes where the connectors are, then push the phone firmly into the putty, and remove.

6. You should have a phone shaped indentation in the putty - as long as you can see the indentation, then just let it cure, otherwise you might need to add more putty, and repeat the process.

7. Once cured gently remove the insert and tape, and remove the tape from the back of the insert. Sorted.

Cheers,

Steve
[HD2 General] rapman172003:
Sorry for my english but it's not my first language, even not second, so apologies.

So my problem... i don't like to post and don't post so much but i'm here every day. I have some devices and i love flashing and trying every new rom. I'm not a noob and nor dev. Just a simple user who's second life everyday is xda.

I just want to know if my HD2 is bricked or not. So the phone do not boot up, screen do not turn on, button backlight, or charging led. Nothing. It was installed with magldr. First i was thinking that battery was dead and with magldr do not charge and that's why do not boot. But no... today i have bought from somebody a docking charger with spare battery charger and 2 batteries. No luck. I have disassembled my leo and took a look in it. If i try to turn on i see that the vibration motor turns on for a half of second and than nothing happens.

I'ts not so very big problem if it is bricked (while i have a DHD, an SE xperia neoV, an asus tf101g, and next week i will buy a galaxy nexus too) but i don't want to take it in box if it can be bringed back to life. I just want to know what can cause this , if somebody knows what can i try feel free to answer.

P.S. no do not boots in bootloader also. Last time was installed with android via magldr, no OC, and all happend when i was driving my car using navigation on it. Simply turned off. It seem like the bootloader was deleted or don't know. Also battery pins checked. It can be defective mainboard or what???

Thanx in advance.
[HD2 General] kliko kliktoris:
Looks as mainboard died. Sometimes car charger can kill the phone
[HD2 General] rapman172003:
Yeah i agree with you but then why is vibration motor moving? Also i know that it doesn't matter but i have the original car charger from htc, and the phone was not plugged in, battery was at starting the navigation app at about 80% and after 10 minutes was the phone dead.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
a few times on both by hd2's, I've come across a situation where some app/process hangs, the phone freezes or becomes really sluggish, and the phone starts to get hot at the bottom on the back. I always pull teh battery smartish, but perhaps yours did the same, and it burned itself out. Its well known that the hd2 suffers from heat.

Perhaps give the freezer trick a go, see what happens.
[HD2 General] kliko kliktoris:
Contact this user. He had bricked and fixed his HD2 somewhere in Gegmany

Sorry for ur hd2 but as I heard that maximum flashing for hd2 are 100 timea till it break. How often did u flash ur hd2?
[HD2 General] Armazia:
I think thats just some kind of myth. I bet I have flashed my HD2 OVER 150 times, a lot of experimenting of windows mobile, and later went on to Android. I did have a problem with a HD2 to vibrate 5/7 times and then freeze, in any way. Even when I flashed. I had trouble booting it too, but removing the battery for 30 minutes worked.
[HD2 General] rapman172003:
Thanks for your answer. I will contact him maybe he can help me.

I think too that the flashing limit is just a myth. I was flashing roms more than 300times and with no issues. My Leo was a survivor :D two times made bath and even after was fully functioning. Last months i was using just for gps and playing with roms. :)

If i can't fix it i want to give it for somebody from hd2 forums. If you are near Gütersloh in germany and you were contributing with something for Hd2 community feel free contact me and i will give you for free. No shipment because i can't send it, but if you are from other country and you have somebody that can send it to you tell him to come here contact me and we will see what we can do. There is the phone, 3batteries, docking station with one extra place for battery charge, original and silicon case.

I WANT TO WAIT ONE WEEK FROM NOW IF I CAN'T FIX IT I WILL TELL YOU AND EVERYBODY CAN CONTACT ME. REMEMBER THAT YOU MUST BE A DEV OR THEMER BECAUSE I WON'T GIVE IT FOR EVERYDAY USER WHO DID NOTHING FOR THE COMMUNITY. I CAN'T DONATE, LET THIS BE MY DONATION.

THANKS :)
[HD2 General] Sneakyghost:
Mate, i am from Hannover, which is not too far off your location. I might be able to help you with some advice. I am under pressure at work at the moment and cant reply in detail now but hang in there i will get back to you asap. Sorry cannot help right now.

There is two possible causes i can think of.

and btw: the flashing counter is not a myth. the Chip counts the number of flashes. But i don't think it has a kill switch. That is bull****. It's just for HTC to tell how often it was flashed and judge what users did to it.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Source? Never heard of this before. (Also, surely only ruu based flashes would register, the firmware wouldn't see android flashes, so it would be a hugely incorrect figure)
[HD2 General] rapman172003:
Ok thanks for your fast reply :) i'm here every day. When you have time drop me a pm and we will see what to do. There is no rush.

Thank you one more time.
[HD2 General] Maximillion195:
I have exactly the same problem as you, I turned off my phone and since then It just wont turn back on no charging light nothing except a small vibrate for half a second when I remove the battery and reinsert it.

Have you found any solution at all?
[HD2 General] Sneakyghost:
Hello maximillion,

Read my post above yours. If you happen to be in Germany contact the Ebay guy I linked to. He's good and your phone probably is just bricked. Happens sometimes.

If you are not in Germany I recommend searching your local Ebay for someone who does JTAG repairs. Or check for the search term "riff box" and "jtag".

[HTC Desire S] eoinzy:
Hi,

My girlfriend has a Desire S, with CyanogenMod 7.1 latest stable. Any time she rings me, after a few minutes, the phone freezes and we get disconnected. On her side, it goes quiet. On my side I hear noise, as if the audio is paused and gets hung.

We both have to hang up and call again. I'm on a Desire with CM7.1 too, as can be seen in my sig.

Can anyone shed some light on this issue for me? I have tried updating the radio to the newest one for Desire S but the problem persists.

Thanks.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorrne87:
Hi guys,

I need some help with my phone. Few days back I charge my phone after it died as it ran out of battery. I turned it on as I was connecting it to the charger and the white HTC loading screen came on. Left it there to do my own work and came back few hours later to notice that it's still stuck at the same loading screen. Pulled out the battery and tried turning it on again with the same result.

I tried all the methods I could find online to fix it.

The HBoot/Recovery selection only cause it to reboot and get stuck at the same loading screen. Clear Storage is successful but it get stuck again at the same screen after rebooting.

I tried to flash the latest official RUU through the pc at first but error 170 came out and my phone was not detected by the pc.

Then I tried it again with the PB99IMG.zip method with both my current microsd card and my goldcard.

The PB99IMG wasn't detected on my goldcard showing no image found, however it was detected when I place it in my current microsd but the CID incorrect error came up.

I tried the same thing again with few other different RUU.

Examples of the RUU that I had tried:

RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe

RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe

RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release

I even reformatted my goldcard to try again but the PB99IMG still wasn't detected.

Details of my phone is as below:

BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT- 0.93.0001

MICROP-051d

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.11.05.27

It is unbranded Asia WWE SLCD phone. I rooted it a year ago and flashed it to official WWE europe version to catch up with the froyo hype. And I did use back the same goldcard back then to try the PB99IMG method.

Can anybody please help me out?

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Wheelman6969:
I have a 7" HDMI touchscreen monitor I want to use with my phone. I connect the monitor to the HDMI port and can see everything on the phone as expected, What I want to know is how can I plug the USB cable from the monitor into the phone so I can use the touchscreen on the monitor to control the phone.

Would someone need to write an USB driver for it or by chance it is already part of the OS?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cbalde04:
I would start by getting an OTG USB cable, or make one yourself, and see if it picks it up as a mouse. Might be worth a shot. I know I would do it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silversonic1:
I actually posted a thread not too long ago about USB host on the Bionic. Here's a link.

But put simply, it seems that unless you provide power to the Bionic and have it connected to a hub, there's little chance of getting your USB devices to be recognized by the Bionic.

I'm sad to must say that i no longer use a HD2.I had two HD2 phones. One for daily use the other was a test phone for roms. The Testphone is chrashed and past away before 3 days. Now i own a Desire HD and the HD2 for daily use goes to my wife with my favorite rom from TBD.

So i must say thank you to all the developers for the work and time that he spend to cook roms for the HD2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On my Desire HD i use the Energy Rom from Nrg.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GraveDigger176:
thx mate

well i think i tested too much roms :( most of the testroms where 5 until 6 days on the phone and then comes another rom on the phon.my wifes phone runs from the first day with TBD rom without problems.the testphone was a phone from the first HD2 generation, my wifes from the 2nd.

I wanted reflash to win 6.5 and nothing gone. My Phonedealer send it to check in a repair workshop with the report to repair the phone coast 180 euro.

thats too much money for an almost 5 year old phone.

i buy a 1,5 year old desire hd phone on ebay with direct buy for 200 euro.

cheers
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Jackliveshere:
Hi again,

I'm sorry to hear that. I wasn't sure if technically that could be possible. I have tried tenths of ROMs(Winmo coocked, Android Nand & SD, ecc) on my Hd2 since Dec '09. So probably I 'll have to expect something similar, like a sudden death for my Leo too. Well who knows, hope not, but anyway I can imagine, separation could be hard for many reasons, emotional or not :eek:

of course this is not a 5 years old phone, but a 2 years old phone (did the maths)... For example from and including, Monday, 21 December 2009 To and including Wednesday, 15 February 2012, It is 787 days from the start date to the end date, end date included or >>2 years, 1 month, 26 days << including the end date.

Ergo, It could be such a pity don't be functional after two years, don't you think? Hd2 is still a powerful device made by metal, crystal and other precious high quality materials and you can prolong Hd2s life expectancy thanks to XDA developers. Fortunately these guys with their new hardware acceleration will give us the possibility to use the latest operating systems(see Android 4) increase the satisfaction for this device and fight the planned obsolescence! (Also reduce social costs, recycling ecc) :)

Consequently I would say to you to try to unbrick your device to someone else.

Generally the cost for adjusting your Hd2 must be approximately 30E-40E, as I found out after a little research made on line. So 180E seems to me absurd, take a second opinion, no?

just some thoughts:)

Cheers

I've read a bunch of posts on this, but I can't seem to get it to work.

Baseband Version - S:D700.0.5S.EL30

Kernel version - 2.6.35.7-Shadow-CM9_v0.3 (have used default CM9 kernel and Samurai kernel also)

CyanogenMod Version - 9-02132012-NIGHTYLY-EpicMTD

I have been testing 2 different Voicemail installs.

sprint_vvm_5.1.0.48.apk - http://dev-host.org/95ls5ezsm22v/SprintVisualVoiceMail.zip

and

sprint vvm - 5.2.0.24 - Voicemail-335896.apk - http://db.tt/z9dDqjI9

I've tried using these steps:

1.unzip SprintVisualVoiceMail.zip to the root of your SD card

2.find sprint_vvm_5.1.0.48.apk on your sd card and install it...

3.download titanium backup from the market...

4.launch titanium backup and find sprint vm...

5.select restore... (select data only)

I install the 5.1.0.48 APK and then restore data only from backup and when I launch Voicemail I get a "Unfortunately, Voicemail has stopped." error with only OK as a option to close.

If I uninstall that and install 5.2.0.24 (and not restore data) the application opens up, but I get these errors and no new voicemail notifications.

Please wait, Verifying your account information, this may take a minute...

Account Verification Error which I click through and get to voicemail, but no new messages show up.

I can check for new messages and get 'Attemping to download new messages.' but no messages show up.

If I restore data to this version of voicemail, it loads without any errors - but I still get no voicemails.

I'm getting a SMS message that says to call 650-603-0000 to listen.

I've searched and found these suggested fixes:

Re-activate your Visual Voicemail account. This will force the Voicemail client to send an activation message to the Server again. Once re-activated, all pending messages should be able to download again.

Option(1):

- Go to - Settings/Applications/Manage Applications (be sure you are looking at "all")/Voicemail/Clear data

- This will wipe out your old Inbox messages but your filesystem will come clean

Option(2):

Use Visual Voicemail Compose screen and send it to the following address: activate@vvm.sprint.com (you must have a couple of seconds recorded)

Option 1 just takes me back to where I started (reverifying account)

Option 2 doesn't work with either version of voicemail apk with or without data restore. Both crash when I try to record a message.

The problem seems to be that I can't verify my account information. (communication is timing out) Is there a way to check and see if it's using the right server?

I would like to use sprint visual voicemail. So not picking 'use another app from market' has anyone figured out how to get this to work?
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
I will never happen until there is an ICS-compatible version of the Sprint VVM. Your only option is to use something else.
[Epic 4G General] joshag:
Do any of Sprint tablets have ICS have visual voicemail on them?
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
No. No device on Sprint has ICS yet, and probably won't until mid-March.

I recommend just using Google Voice.
[Epic 4G General] joshag:
I've used my phone for less then 30 minutes of talk time over the last year and some change and maybe have received a dozen voicemails. It's not that big of a issue for me, I'll just wait.

I wasn't a fan of google voice. I use my phone mostly for sms and email messaging. It might be months before I have to make a call and I might not get another voicemail before summer. The first time the phone rang it caught me off guard.. I wasn't sure what that sound was. :)

What's everyone's hatred of google voice? It using about the same amount of resources and when setup properly as "just" a visual voicemail it functions "exactly" the same.
[Epic 4G General] edufur:
I don't know about other people, but my hatred for it is how it hijacks your SMS without even asking. While this is fixable by removing the integration to the phone, it is still a pain in the ass and a lot of people don't know how to do that. And unfortunately, you have to do it every time you rebuild your phone. Not very convenient for a flash-aholic.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Well, the average user doesn't flash roms 24/7 so you can't really blame google for that. I kind of like having the SMS around because it just transcribes the message for me in a much easier location rather than having to put in my passcode, wait until it plays a message, etc.
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
It doesn't hijack anything! If you took the time and read the settings you'll see what I'm talking about.

DO NOT CLICK "Enable Google Voice on your Sprint phone".

DO CLICK "Activate Google voicemail on this phone"

It will give you instructions on how to easily set that up. Then use the Voice app as like you would Sprints.

If you "Enable Google Voice on your Sprint phone" it will intercept everything.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
This. Don't enable Sprint integration, you'll have zero problems.
