So if I flash original firmware kies would work for updating (where one was available)

Tried google but most links end up back here to xda or a non working multi upload link lol.

Thanks for the info jje. :-)

See the Checkfus thread for an alternative method of grabbing original firmware or updates .

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] cubexe:
Hi,

is there a way to flash WP7 to my HD2 without VolUp key? (broken after display replacement)

VolUp key is needed when WP7 is booting to hardreset, without that I always get message with some SD card problem).

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
you can also use settings/about/reset your phone, from within WP7 to hard reset your phone.

But I see your point, if you are having trouble with the sd card, try installing XBmod/Yuki ROM and updating to 7403 without SD, skip through the setup and then use the above. Your card should then be captured by WP7

If using a ROM which doesn't fully encrypt then try sdformatter to resize and format your sd before trying again.

I'm here to request specific help from anyone that been in my same situation :( and is about upgrade the radio of my evo3d

Why i'm looking for ""specific help""? since i use a Sprint CDMA in Mexico with iusacell carrier, if i brick my phone, well i'm literaly PWNED (because here does not exist insurance or something similar :() and other problem can be that if i change something in umh "data porfile" or "qespt:confused:" configuration i can get to lose my evdo3g conection (well i think to lose 3g because bad data profile is obvious... no! that is not obvious because the ****ty carrier can "ban" my line from data service :mad: even if i have put all configuration correctly)

Which is my problem? i am using last infected rom r157 and i notice sometimes when i turn on my phone it frozen on htc Logo (on boots only...), but other times it boot with no problems and everything works at 100%, but because that "frozen" i believe, that rom is having troubles with my radio.

i have hboot 1.40 therefore i have obtained s-off with revolutionary tool, and only with these infected roms (lastest r157 and r1.5b2) i had this problem.

my actual radio is 0.97.10.0530

what do you guys think =V ??

srry for the "requete" bad english ...

xD
[HTC EVO 3D] fcomeba:
Heyy!!!

Hey, how are you doing?

I'm from Mexico and i'm in Iusa too.

Is your bootloader locked or unlocked?

There is a lot of info about flash the antennas, you should search for RUU update, it will update all the firmware.

I had the same problem with my phone, random reboots and the bootscreen that never disapears.

first you should flash roms based on the your actual firmware, it wont flash your antennas but it will show you the baseband of the rom you are on.

Go settings> About Phone> Software info> More

To know what update do you need.

I had problems with my SD, remove it or change it and check if it solves the problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] SLver:
Hi! thanks a lot for the info

i think my bootloader is unlocked since i used revolutionary to get s-off

i cant take a photo of my hboot but here is the info:

SHOOTER XC ENG S-OFF RL

HBOOT-1.04.2000 (PG8610000)

RADIO-0.97.10.0530

eMMC-boot

Apr 16 2011, 19:34:31 (<--- That must be very useful xD)

Well my baseband is 0.97.10.0530 (Attached picture)

Ive always been a fan of the AOSP roms. But it seems the big spike we had in Dev's using AOSP has stopped and most seem to have Sense cooking now. None the less what is out there that is stable?

Im running Swipers MIUI .17 and its good, but seems that the internet lags a bit more and the SMS isnt sending as fast as it should be ( even when I send one to myself, its around 1 min until it comes in ).

I was running decks, and might go back to it. No issues at all there. MIUI seems to have ceased development for now ( known reasons ) and I havent checked with cyanogen in a bit, since they had that security leak around 1 year or so ago.

Just a reminder to get it on top of the list again

It is becoming rather difficult to compare all the different statements about Wifi performance and the speed results determined with Speedtest.Net

Don't use the bars at the bottom of the screen.

These are just a graphical image representing that something is going on with Wifi. If the parameters in the firmware are changed you can get as much bars as you want.

Furthermore the bars don't say anything about the quality of the Wifi connection.

Don't use Speedtest.Net

Speedtest.Net doesn't measure Wifi speed but the speed of the connection you are having with a remote Speedtest.Net server on the internet. The speed it indicates is the speed of the weakest link in the routing. So congestion on the internet (not your Wifi) is represented in a slower speed.

When your family or housemates are streaming Youtube the speed it indicates is the speed for the remainder of the bandwith that is left over for you.

Use only Iperf!!! (it's free)

With Iperf you set up a server and a client in your home network . By executing Iperf with different parameters you can get a lot of different info about your Wifi like bandwith, lost packets, jitter, sent and recieved data, etcetera.

For the noob it seems complicated but it isn't. There is a good tutorial on http://openmaniak.com/iperf.php

Please do me, the community and yourself a favor.

Use Iperf.

That way we can get data we can compare.

And maybe someday it will get us somewhere

Thank you very much in advance

;)

PS: Don't just do one test. Do multiple tests. This is something you can automate with Iperf. Set it to do 20 (or more) tests and get some coffee.

Hi there,

because I cannot post directly in the radio images thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=687464) I decided to create a new topic.

2 weeks ago I received my new HTC Desire (old one was defect) and today I noticed a new radio version as the one mentioned in the radio thread.

new version: 5.17.05.27

version here: 5.17.05.23

Is there any way to 'download' the new version from my handy so that I can offer it here (via adb for example)?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TripKidd:
I just switched to ADW ex and I love it... no lag, nice features, however when I get a text message and press the messaging icon sometimes I have to press it 2 or 3 times before anything happens. This is not an issue of the screen not registering a press since the icon lights up when I press it, but nothing else happens after that about 1 out of 10 times.

Also, even though its checked in the options, I get no little red "1" on the icon when I have an unread text. Not sure if others are seeing these issues on the note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mortem Tuam:
are you talking about the message icon on your dock or homescreen?

Make sure there is an app associated with the icon. If the icon is on your dock....double tap the icon and go to edit. If it is on your homescreen, long press icon and then go to edit.

On the pop up make sure there is a program associated with the icon...like mine says GO SMS Pro in the gray box next to the icon. If there is nothing, then you have no app there. So then just tap the gray box and choose applications and then your messaging app.

make sense?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Arcos904:
I was having this same problem, delete your messaging shortcut and recreate it, it seemed to fix the issue for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mortem Tuam:
No need to delete. Just long press edit and assign application. You can even change the icon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Arcos904:
Yes you do need to delete. When editing it it shows the right information, but doesnt work, recreating it seems to make it work correctly, atleast for me.

I tried editing it like you said first, it was correct. But i'm a noob so maybe i wasnt looking at it right :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mortem Tuam:
OK, as long as it worked good for you that's what counts :cool:

If you already downloaded it on your g2, the apk file should be in data/app

You need a Root explorer like 'ES File Explorer' for it to acces the map.

As interesting that phone is. I'm sticking with Samsung since as far as all the other mobile developers and maker out there, they're leading. Panasonic still needs a lot of work. It'd be nice to see what they'd come up with in the next few years.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Even though I'm completely loyal to Samsung and will only replace my Note with a Note 2 or 3 in the future, phones like this and the LG Vu (as well as the Dell Streak of the past) provide me with security that this new trend in 5"+ devices will be sticking around far into the future, which makes me happy. I will never use a device that doesn't have a better screen technology than Samsung's Super Amoled panels. I don't see any device topping them with the way things are going, and I also don't mind touchwiz and the openness that Samsung has towards 3rd party development through unlocked bootloaders and whatnot. My Note will most likely be the first device that I will actually be happy with for more than a year, as I have been using my Family's upgrades to get a new phone every year.

Not much point to this other than me just coming to a slow realization, I don't know why it took me this long but I've finally realized most of the problems I read about are caused by people NOT reading and the problems never really should have happened in the first place.

Perfect example is the new firmware, I've lost count of how many people have posted issues with it even though they aren't superCID and don't even know what that means. Or people not taking the time to research some key vocabulary words, like the difference between a radio and an ruu.

I just don't understand why somebody would spend the money to buy a relatively expensive phone like the sensation and then not take the time to research and read thoroughly before attempting something that could potentially brick their brand new toy??

Ahhh, forget it, maybe I'm just cranky...:mad:
[HTC Sensation] matt95:

[HTC Sensation] c19932:
While this is true, you also have to understand that some threads did not state that you need the latest firmware for the rom to work. I remember flashing a ics rom for the first time and the original thread did not sya I need ton upgrade my firmware
[HTC Sensation] FnH84:
This is so true. Some of the instructions are missing steps that you need to complete before you even start. And this board is MASSIVE in size, so finding the right info for your device might sometimes be tricky.
[HTC Sensation] BAleR:
its because people are too impatient
[HTC Sensation] sshede:
Now don't blame the threads "missing steps" or "not saying you need to upgrade." If you're going to flash your phone with experimental software, you need to know what you're doing.
[HTC Sensation] darkmantra:
I agree with this. Coz before I did flash my phone I really did intensive research reading everywhere in this section, finding tips though its true not all guide for noobs is really for noobs which you should have common sense on what you exactly need to do. Until recently a lot of guys (we should thank them) really dedicated their time doing the spoon fed procedures but unfortunately there seems still few people having the hardtime to flash FW, ROM Kernel and ended up bricking the phone.

[HTC Sensation] FnH84:
I agree on 70% on what you said, but....

A COMPLETE noob will not be able to know what those "common sense steps" mean. Nor will he know which terms and which threads apply to his process of flashing, nor which information to look for. He will follow the instructions to the letter, get stuck and then get frustrated when people jump on him and tell him he should've known he had to do this and that before starting.

So, of course he will be confused and ask questions on this forum, EVEN IF the information is available in thread #898761, page 46, post #197.

But yes, I agree. Most of the instructions are solid and most of them tell you to go to a specific thread if you don't know what something means. But not all.

yeah I agree with OP totally, we all know that and we all were faced with retards who can't google up words like "adb push". Even a noob can fire up google and read what this means, just like I did.

But it's the way it is, and you're not the first to complain about it. Still won't change a damn thing because those ppl we're talking about are the ones least likely to read this thread.

Yes the main thing is people should really learn to use the search bar at the top of every page. Its my best friend and has saved me when I got into a boot loop. Also if, for any reason whatsoever, you feel like your about to brick your phone by flashing a rom or a kernel or whatever, DONT DO IT. Plain and simple. DONT DO IT. You shouldn't be rooting if you don't hold the confidence to flash a kernel or rom and know your phone won't brick.
