Some nice tips, however....

Be VERY careful when using glue to attach the screen, not only can this damage the digitizer itself but it not the correct thickness to create the correct spacing between the glass and the LCD screen. Always use adhesive strips, NOT glue.
[EVO 4G General] vroomery:
I'm having a problem after replacing my digitizer for the evo 4g. It boots and audio works fine, but the screen is completely white (no logo). I checked the ribbon cable for the LCD but it looks fine and is definitely connected all the way. Are there any other possibilities here?
[EVO 4G General] repairsuniverse:
Here are a couple of things you can try: make sure correct part was ordered, and check that all flex cables are securely locked in place.
[EVO 4G General] jmh033089:
Thanks this is going to help, now if I can figure out what screen to order with out having to take apart the phone...
[EVO 4G General] mrkevo3000:
I found that out the hard way lol... I used some bonding glue that was all bad, not to mention the spacing was off by a few hairs... But I'm still trying to find the right adhesive strips..
[EVO 4G General] repairsuniverse:
Yes. ALWAYS use adhesive strips. NOT glue. Glue can not only damage the digitizer, but even if it doesn't you will not get the correct thickness between the LCD and glass.

You can find the right thickness adhesive strips here - Adhesive strips for touch screens

Hey guys

I'm having this issue where the LCD I ordered doesn't fit correctly inside the seat, making it so the glass wont snap in. I can get the top part in, but then the bottom is too high up. I've tried using force, but I know that is a really bad idea. Any ideas? I've got a feeling they sent me an incompatible screen. Although, I did boot the phone while it was connected, and confirmed it to be working just fine.
[EVO 4G General] repairsuniverse:
The HTC EVO 4G has multiple screens. Make sure you ordered the correct screen for this device.
[EVO 4G General] mrkevo3000:
Yep had that happen twice, I also noticed that black LCD film is like those expensive camera lens's where when you touch them, fingerprints, smudges, lint, dust, then they are no good any more!

htc evo 4g

hey

i used this guide to swap a cracked digitizer on a htc evo 4g , everything went well but when i rebooted the phone the screen is slugish to unresponsive its very difficult to get it to unlock and the calibration on the keyboard tool did nothing to help fix it

ive ordered a second digitizer to try swapping that but its not in yet ,

any thoughts ?/

Is there another way of determining the LCD type on the HTC Evo 4G without disassembling my phone?

very good. thanks.
[EVO 4G General] repairsuniverse:
You're welcome!
[EVO 4G General] blackbirdsinging:
Sorry to ask on such an old post, just a quick question- I have one of these phones and I'm planning on selling it (have already had success doing so with these phones even though they're older) but the LCD and screen are both broken. Making repairs doesn't phase me and the instructions here are pretty easy, I'm just wondering your opinion, seems like this would take no more than an hour, is that about right?

My reasoning is that if it's longer than that I'll probably just sell it as/is :)

Thanks for a great guide!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtlgui:
I build for regular armeabi with -march=armv6, but in my project I have some neon optimized code and I enable that code at run-time after checking if the cpu supports neon. The app obviously has to run on older devices as well.

So, how the hell am I supposed to do that simple task with android crappy build?

I can't specify extra c-flags for some files. To build for neon with this crapware you absolutely have to enable armeabi-7a which means that compiler if free to generate armv6t2 or armv7 instructions, which means that binary might sigill on older devices. The only way for me do that simple task is to build neon asm manually and use the static lib in the main armeabi project.

Seriously, is android build one more example of ridiculous crapware made from regular makefiles so that you can't actually do normal makefiles anymore? Is there official android forum, where I could ask that question from them, or it's also disfunctional?

thanks

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DarkhShadow:
Lasts for 2 years right?

Makes me laugh they let it work before phone has been officially released xD
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Yes, that is correct, it is good for 2 years. and if you already have an account with DB it adds to it. So I had free 2gb, now I am at 25GB of free storage..... I also have 2 Box accounts at 50GB each and 10GB at 4shared, and a second DB account now at 25GB as well........ yeah I know dont say it.... thats.....a.... lot...
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] The Alpha Gamer:
So after doing that can we uninstall it and reinstall the market version or will that get rid of the extra 23gb?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DarkhShadow:
No you can reinstall market version after

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Therev86:
Do you really have to go through the whole invite friends/add files/share files/install DB on a computer to get the 23GB? Because i had an email telling me this and the app is only showing 2GB available currently.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
OK.... its easy. If you have DB installed on your phonje. Go to you settings/manage apps/ and select DropBox. Then select clear cache and data, then uninstall. then install the DB apk I have in the first post, then sign in to your DB account with it, then in around 5-30 minutes you will get an email from DB saying Thank you for buying a HTC One X and letting you know that you now have 23+ additional GB in storage.... DONE.... thats it....

Tried this last night and it hasn't worked yet
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Therev86:
Probably worth mentioning one of my colleagues did this, got the 25GB but as of yesterday its back to 2GB, they could of gotten wise to it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I confirm this is no longer working. DB seems to have caught on as my previous 25gb (up from gb due to this apk) is now back to 2gb.... same as my other DB account.

So with that in mind this thread can be closed

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Odd.... I have not recieved my new emails since I reinstalled the HTC modded DB apps. I mean I had it at 25gb before because I used the apks about 2 weeks ago or whenever I made this thread, but now its back at 2gb, and i tried the apks and no reply, no 23gb gain in my DB accounts......perhaps they have flagged me....oh well....
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] The Alpha Gamer:
If it matters, I've had the market Dropbox before but uninstalled it last week, installed it again last night before trying this, didn't have no data to clear so I just uninstalled it again normally and then installed this HTC one and logged in. That was at about 1:30 last night/this morning. Plus I had Dropbox signed in on ES File Explorer the whole time.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Hmm.... well I uninstalled the market version, cleared cache first, uninstalled, rebooted for good measure and reinstalled the modded apks for HTC DB, then logged in and its been about 3 hours since then, no email. Last time I did this when it worked got my email in minutes...so unless they are bogged down....which I guess they could be........Hmmmmmmm
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] The Alpha Gamer:
Well it took them over 12 hours to email me
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] :
Doesn't matter... Dropbox found out that we were hacking and is expected to take that space away from all modified accounts... There was an article about it
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
K.... I will wait and give it a couple days. Thanks for the feedback Alpha
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] The Alpha Gamer:
No prob.

For what it's worth, Dropbox haven't taken away my 23GB so far.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I did just read an article that DB have already started reverting peoples accounts back to the default 2gb if they have used the HTC DB apk to get 23gb... so it might not happen yet but DB is cracking down on people. Just a heads up
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] The Alpha Gamer:
Fair enough, I don't really use Dropbox much anyway, just couldn't resist getting so much for free XD
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I har you... I have a 10gb 4shared, and 2 50gb box.com accouunts..... and 2 DB accounts.... so yeah I have a ton but I also upload a lot of data to it so in case I ever have an issue with my home server I can pull the most essential data back from Box and whatnot....... but I hear... free online storage and I am there..:D

I have removed the apk from the link asthis modified apk no longer works.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EternalSoil:
The thread title is the error I'm getting. This, from what I can tell, is not the wifi issue.

I'm stock, rooted and I use GoSMS.

I have noticed recently that when I try to send a picture message that is the large clear resolution that is shows up pending for a long time and eventually wont send, probably due to it's large size. To resolve this, I have started doing the smallest resolution, and thus smallest size when I know I'm going to be sending it to someone.

This works to make sure it get sent, if it decides it can. I get the "Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages" To try and fix it I close GoSMS and all other apps, but usually it takes a reboot to get it to go through. There shouldn't be any messages trying to send, as they will usually give an error saying the message couldn't be sent. I don't like to delete messages so I have one thread with 8000+ messages, mix of sms and mms, so going through and deleting all of the sent messages isn't really an option.

I cannot replicate the problem right now to test and see if using the stock messaging app would fix the problem.

Is there some folder or something that stores the pending outgoing messages that I could look at and see the "unsent multimedia messages" are that cause this error?

Is there some other underlying issue, some kind of buffer, relationship between received mms and sending, or anything else like this?

Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Desire S] Arcaneex:
Well I was looking for an advice , I don't have anyone else to ask so I come here , hope It's okay.

Anyways , I wanted to upgrade from my ds to a sensation xe or galaxy nexus but I was wondering if it is really worth it..

I love the community here , great devs and etc but a small bar on my screen isn't working and its almost impossible to use the phone :/

Now o have few options , either to upgrade either to fix my phone. I like the fact that we are getting ICS..

Any opinions?

Both those are already old devices. Best look at a HTC One S if you can live with the 16gb internal memory, or the HTC One X if you want the flagship for 2012.

Agree with above comments regarding upgrade.

I'd say fix (especially if it could be done cheaply or even better under warranty) and then consider replacing in six months

i second wnp_79 advice, the HTC One X with its quad-core processor and 1.5gb ram is the one too look out for.

i think the next best thing for you would be the Nexus or could you wait for the Samung Galaxy s3.

All these new phones coming out, its an exciting time for the Android platform!!!
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
At $400-$500 the One X is obviously out of his budget. I'm not entirely sure about the One S though.

Do you mind sharing how you'll do this? Locally or here on xda?

Sent from Hogwarts using the owl.
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
Several things:

1) There's not enough upgrade in Sensation to justify the money. I played with one (or actually, worked on one - loaded it with ROM and tested, for a friend). Unless all you need is a big screen - Desire S does just about everything, and feels more or less the same.

2) Personally, after a year with Nexus One and plain Android, I wouldn't ever touch "developer phone" again. Wrote it some times before: plain Android sucks badly IMHO, and Sense / TouchWiz have a good reason to exist. You can look at my message history, I noted all the points in which Sense is head and shoulders above AOSP/CM/MIUI. While ALL phones that have overlays can run AOSP/CM/MIUI properly, "developer phones" can't run overlays. So, why limit yourself?

And additional point - user base counts. Galaxy Nexus isn't going to be nearly as popular as the leading "non-developer" devices. And community support lies with popular devices. If you want proof - look at the forums of original Desire, and Desire HD, and compare them with Nexus One forum.

So if you're considering, consider Galaxy S2 or Galaxy S2 HD (the HD version, which is as big as Galaxy Nexus, and with HD screen).

3) Wrote it many times before - HTC One S is actually going to be better than HTC One X, unless they intentionally degrade it to make it worse. The dual-core CPU of One S is much more powerful and less power-hungry than One X's quad-core, and it will be accented even more by lower resolution (so its GPU will be way ahead of One X) and lack of optimization in Android for quad-core usage (which won't allow One X's CPU to even try to match the already-outperforming One S).

A point to consider - AT&T's Galaxy S2 is selling today $100 below its generic equivalent, and AT&T's going to get One X with the same CPU as One S. If it's also going to be priced lower - it might be THE phone worth buying. But it'll most likely happen 1/2 year from now, since when the new models go out - there'll be a huge buzz and the prices will be quite high, out of budget on this thread.

And the upcoming Galaxy S3 can also be a good contender, even though its price will most likely be out of budget too.

So seeing all that, I can suggest - if you have a cheap way of fixing your DS, do it. The "low-cost" One V is not going to up the bar in any way, and Desire S will be relevant for quite some time, probably at least for another year.
[HTC Desire S] ammenRA:
What do you mean by "developer phone"?
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
"Developer phone" = the phone of Nexus branding (Nexus One / Nexus S / Galaxy Nexus / something else in the future that will carry "Nexus" in its name). They're made to run pure Android, and are OTA-updated directly from Google, ahead of other phones.
[HTC Desire S] Arcaneex:
Do what you're saying is that I should stay with the desire s a bit of more time?

I like sense , especially the 4 lite version but I have no problem with the stock android.

[HTC Desire S] mmmcfc:
The Nexus S has had nearly every overlay(sense,touchwiz,blur etc) ported to it by swamp goblin so point 2 is invalid
[HTC Desire S] mmmcfc:
Turns out that the store is being refurbished, and Samsung is paying for part of it
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
If it's not a problem, and you can fix its screen problem cheaply - yes, I think it'll be better. Unless you really want to spend money - in this case, all the One X/S talk is irrelevant, and your options are Sensation or AT&T Galaxy S2 - pick whichever you like.

---------- Post added at 10:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 AM ----------

Buggy like hell, at least the Sense. It's like saying HD2 has every possible ROM ported to it - true, and they were all in semi-functional state since Froyo - so they're worthless. Much like the current ICS ports all around the MSM8x55-based device forums, which are useful only for people that don't use half of their phones' capabilities. But with a small difference - those devices, at least DHD and DS, will get a fully functional ICS, because it'll be officially released for them, while Nexus devices will most likely never get a stable ROM, if I can judge by what happened until now.

Well i put up my Desire S for sale for 270JDs (about 300$?) and someone offered to exchange mine for his for 80$, not a bad thing i'd say, and i've already had it with this phone =.= (not the desire S itself, just the one i have), so i guess it'll be allright, i just need to find the money now hahaha

i'd like a bigger screen, bigger battery, and i'm a sucker for black/red, also them beats headphones ;D;
