[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConstantineTheGreat:
I had something similar.

But then I checked is there some problem with my connection, and the problem was that my APN set to MyProvider.MMS, and not just MyProvider.

Hope that this will work to you too

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fastfed:
So yea.. This case is nice.. Slim, great protection.. But holy Echo cow!

WTF is up with engineers these days?

Anyone figure out why it echos ??

Its not ME the talker that is echoing, its the receiver who hears them self echo.

I could see if I was echoing because the mic on the bottom of the phone is kind of covered, but its not ME, its the person on the other end.

which would be from the speaker part of the phone which the case doesn't even cover.

Any solutions ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
This happened to me with the fishbone case. No idea what causes it, I just switched to a different case :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
I use my phone for work and i have heard no complaints about call quality. also using the D3() case
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fastfed:
I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.. no pun

How is it that my callers are hearing themselves!?!?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Network issues? ive experienced what you are talking about in the past... But only when ive called other people on cell phones (and never since owning the hercules).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thecolorifix:
Does it cover the top mic up?

The Galaxy s 2 has a little pinhole mic on the top almost right in the middle. It's a noise cancelling mic and I accidentally bought a case for the Sprint Galaxy S that didn't have a cutout for that mic. I got a ton of echo till I read about this problem somewhere and just drilled a little hole in the case right where the mic was. Sounded fine after that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] motorjonny:
I hate to tell you... but its YOU + d30 +sgs2 = your caller hears echo...

My coworker has the same problem with any case, so she did a phone exchange... same problem with any case.

She tried my phone with a case (d30), caller hears their voice echo.

I tried her phone with a case, no echo... no echo on my phone either when i use it...

conclusion.. some people are the magic element that causes this to happen.. love to know why...

*fade out with twilight zone theme song*
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
I put my D30 back on just to test this. So far, no complaints.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RogueCoyote:
I have the same case and don't have any echo issues....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Saitek:
I have the d30 case and noticed several times complaints about a very nasty echo as if I was playing the caller through a car stereo and they would hear themselves clearly. After removing the case after receiving my extended battery, I never got an echo issue again. Must be a horrible design in the case.

Sent from a Galaxy far far away...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djpingpong:
have been using my d30 for months and nobody has ever complained of echo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cjoe7:
No echo issues here using the D3O case.

However, I've experienced it on BT headsets frequently.

Either its caused by my headset or the callee's BT headset.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ragnarok12:
I haven't had any voice echo issues with my D30 Flex case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SiNJiN76:
Interesting. Will have to try taking the phone out of the case and then covering up the hole with my finger to see if the echo is there or not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] defvayne:
I had the case and gave it to my ex cause i bought a Seido case and she complained about the echo. Thats why i am getting rid of it tomorrow.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] slkdk:
Hi.

I have an 32A HTC Magic.

I don't know what got wrong but I have NO working ROM on my device.

I have Amon Ra 1.6.2, SPL-OFF, Can get into recovery, can get into Fastboot mode.

Tried flashing some ROMs (they installed 100% completely) but when I reboot the logo just shows "htc MAGIC" and nothing happens.

Please what should I try to do?

Your help will be very much appreciated.

Best regards and sorry for not so great english.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] slkdk:
Okay, the thing is:

I can get into the Fastboot screen, but cant get into Fastboot USB mode. So no way of sending ADB commands from my laptop.

Also, no way to get into HBOOT. Even from the Fastboot screen, pressing VOL DOWN doesn't do anything.

What the heck do I do? :o(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
It can be caused by stucked buttons.

Tear down the phone

Clean parts

Assemble all back

p.s. Please post spl-info (first 5 rows in fastboot screen) to avoid software incompatability
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] slkdk:
Thank you very much, here is the data:

Your help is very much appreciated. Im still stuck with the Magic.. Have tried everything all night :(

Best regards
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] slkdk:
Okay, got into HBOOT finally. I then tried flashed the sappimg.zip - but half way through it said invalid model id.

Now I don't have Amon Ra recover, and Fastboot looks like this now:

I tried another sappimg.zip and then in HBOOT but HBOOT doesn't find the sappimg.zip anymore.

Any good advice?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] slkdk:
Cause Im a bit stupid I guess ... :o

One thing though, I can't even get my computer to recognize my Magic.

Nothing happens when I plug it to the USB port. Not showing up in Device Manager.

I have tried two mini USB cables, same thing.

Guess Im totally screwed? ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
It is driver-related issue.

You need explore Windows Device Manager (My computer (right click) / Manage / Device Manager)

There must be Android USB Devices in tree.

You can also install USBDEVIEW

32bit OS: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usbdeview.zip

64bit OS: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usbdeview-x64.zip

p.s.

1. adb must return serial number when phone in normal state after command "adb devies"

2. fastboot must return serial number only in fastboot-mode after command "fastboot devices"

If you see serial number - no problem with adb/fastboot
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] yuanlin0823:
Hi, slkdk,

Have you ever tried the "RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Chunghwa"

(in Traditional Chinese/English)

You just need to connect your phone with PC, turn on the phone with back+power, and then execute the "RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Chunghwa" on PC.

I remember that Sapphire_HTC_Chunghwa will help you with all the radio/SPL/ROM directly back to the Android 1.5 stock.

Good luck!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
Just note, but not all phones are Taiwanese Chungwa. Installing ROM for another region (mismatching by CID) will raise "cid error" and half-brick.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND, THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL BUILD FOR A REASON, THERE WILL BE BUGS, SO DON'T WHINE IF YOU FIND ONE, FIND A FIX INSTEAD

Here is the complete tar for the FB21 build, I replaced the Sbl with the EG31 one so reset jigs will still work afterwards

Side note - If you having issues with drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers worked for me

Extract tar first, then flash tar file through the PDA option in Odin

D710_CODE_SPH-D710.FB21_CL159837_REV02_user_w_Sbl_EG31.tar.zip

And for those that just want the modem, here it is

E4GT_Modem_FB21.zip \ E4GT_Modem_FB21.tar - Zip must be flashed through a CWM based recovery & Tar must be flashed through the PHONE option in Odin

FAQ

If your having issues with Odin recognizing the phone after flashing this, use these instructions

Go to device manager, right click on the unknown device, update driver, click browse, let me pick from a list, select all(wait till it loads), find Samsung Co and install one of the ones that have modem in the name

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] wasa67:
Hi guys, first of all there were similar posts, but couldn't find anything that looked like my problem

Im currently running CM 7.2-GIO-KANG [Update: February 13, 2012]...and CWM 5.2.0.7

Let me tell you how i ended up with this version

I bought my phone..flashed it with Darkshados rooted rom V2...then i used simply gio for a while..after which I upgrade to gio pro 1.3...and gio pro 1.4...after which i switched to CM 7.2.

Ive been told that this version shouldn't have any WiFi problems..but when my phone is screen locked for a while..the WiFi shuts off...and reactivate when I unlock it....this is pain..cause i use whats app...and if the WiFi isn't on when its locked...i don't get my messages.

SO i thought maybe...its because my model firmwear changed or something...and decided to flash back to stock...and install CM 7.2 form stock.

I had reason to believe this because...my phone also registered my netwrok provider as BELL...but im actualy with VIRGIN(Altho virgin uses bells network)...the previous roms didn't do this and showed virgin.

So i decided to go to downloading mode...and re flash to Stock V2 for the s5660M. And as expected I got a bootloop. Following the instruction for the bootloop fix..i went into stock recovery, installed CWM again...and wipe data..mounted partitions..and then installed arpegio..just to check..but i keep getting stuck on the boot screen every time. finally i used CWM to restore a CM 7.2 backup i made..and managed to get that working.

Anyone have any ideas to why i cant flash stock and another rom anymore

Please and Thank you^^
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] koodiifin:

Ok so i HATE the car home launching on the dock, my X2 and OG Droid used a magnet to trigger the home but Razr uses a resistor in the usb pins. Without proper tools to rework the internal wiring i decided to completely replace the usb internals with a oem moto charger (from my X2 bundle) and hey it turned out well, and actually slides in better than before. (i had the phone in the dock plugged in when i applied the bonding agent to the back of the mount to ensure it was lined up correctly)

The problem isn't leaving the home app, its that it launches any launcher at all, it messes up things im doing example docking a paused netflix movie. Also more importantly it was causing hell with my launcher7, blanking out icons and such, even with a app that launches no car dock it still launches that app as a "home".

I get in and out of my car 20-50 times a day, i wish you could just disable the car dock in the system settings. all in all im happy with the dock now, the slider fits perfect now, before i had to wiggle it.

who may help me? may any software force _real_ car mode?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ShurV:
After 4 years my RAZR is finally dead (RIP) and I replaced it with another smartphone (Lenovo, but who cares)

One of the features I miss from RAZR is it beautiful car dock with charger, and the phone's ability to enter/exit car mode automatically.

So it's interesting if it's possible to try and use it, after some modification, on other phones

The question : what does the phone do for this detection ? is it pure hardware particular implementation or any phone is capable to detect this type of wiring and it's just a matter of software to do something with it?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] safeplayer22:
2 hours of display time (also depending on how bright you have had it) with 50% left is pretty good.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] avarize:
I'd have to disagree that 2 hours is good, I'd call it subprime. Do some searching on XDA. There are plenty of wonderful tutorials and guides to small things you can do to help it out quite a bit.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
I called HTC UK support a few days ago not for my wildfire s but my sons, it has a dodgy power button really hard to press and sometimes no response, hitting the side of the phone helps lol, so maybe a loose connection between the flex cable and connector.

It has always been a bit unresponsive since first purchase but wasn't too bad, I guess I only noticed it because mine was so much easier to press, anyway it has been getting worse over time.

So HTC asked if it was rooted or had been s-off as if it was they would not do the repair without a charge of £50-£60 and stated the engineers will check for this before any work is carried out.

I argued that the problem was hardware related and not software/firmware and it should be covered but they dissagreed.

I think this is poor customer service.

If I bricked my phone then I wouldn't argue, it would be my problem but this is faulty hardware so I'm pissed.

I will do the repair myself when it gets to a point that it becomes a real problem for my son, as I used to repair mobiles in a shop and currently repair pc's.

Just would've been nice to have the warranty option.

Anyway moral of the story s-off or unlocked bootloader don't expect any kind of warranty from HTC whether a software or hardware issue.

Edit: almost forgot. I asked if I send it would they flash the firmware as I didn't want them to!

Their response was they would flash the phone whether I want them to or not even though its a hardware issue.

How crazy is that.

THANKS HTC AND SHAME ON YOU :banghead:
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
That's bad. But I think it depends also on the country you live in. Some countries, like mine have specific laws for such a case. That means, if e.g. the defect is not caused by a software issue, they have to do the repair.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Yeah I might send a letter to a UK customer service manager and see what kind of response I get.
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
Good luck. You should also consider - if your son's device is already unlocked - to downgrade a stock rom. I somehow doubt that htc people check, if the device has gone through the htcdev process. They maybe just check HBOOT and if there is neither LOCKED (OOW), UNLOCKED nor RELOCKED, they think it's okay.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Didn't htcdev it.

Xtc clipped it but either way I told the guy its stock etc etc but he didn't care.

He said they've had a few phones returned to customers without repair because the engineers check the bootloader and htcdev.
[HTC Wildfire S] no.human.being:
In Germany you have different kinds of liability from the manufacturer's side.

If the malfunction appears within the first 6 months, it is generally believed to be a manufacturing fault and if the manufacturer doesn't want to replace it, he has to prove that it was not.

If the malfunction appears after more than 6 months, but less than 24 months, the manufacturer still has to replace devices that failed due to a manufacturing fault, but the burden of proof is on the consumer side. Obviously it's hard for a consumer to prove that the malfunction is due to a manufacturing fault, so if the manufacturer refuses to replace the device you're probably gonna fight a losing battle. However, most manufacturers will stil replace the device as anything else would harm their reputation.

The manufacturer cannot ask you to agree to forfeit either of these claims, as such an agreement would be void. However, after more than 24 months you're definitely out of luck from the legal point of view. You will only get service if you signed up for a special maintenance contract with the manufacturer, which obviously is only relevant for very expensive and long-lasting goods.

You have to provide them some kind of unique identifier for your device before they give you the unlock token. I think they know which serial the device had that this identifier is from and will then check the serial against some database.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
They asked me the condition and as I explained its my sons its in a brand new condition in a case not been out the house really as he uses his blackberry outside.

It's about 7 months old.
[HTC Wildfire S] no.human.being:
Not sure about the law in the UK. Getting in contact with some jurist will probably help. I don't know where you're working, but most bigger companies have some kind of "legal department". Maybe you can contact one of your colleagues while relaxing over a beer. :D

A lawyer will probably charge far more than the phone's worth. :D
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
You are right. And I also found out, that whatever you do, whatever you down or upgrade the state of the bootloader lock persists.

I downgraded to an older ROM ,thus getting back HBOOT 1.08.0000. after installing HTCDEV HBOOT again, it remembered the RELOCKED state. When you first flash the HTCDEV HBOOT you get LOCKED (OOW). So somewhere this information is stored.
