Background Info

So, my DHD had a problem with the mic so I sent it to a local mobile phone store to see if they could repair it. After 3 weeks, they called me and told me there was nothing that could be done since the mic was in the motherboard and they can't change that.

I got my phone yesterday and and noticed traces and dents from using a normal screwdriver to open the led case. Apart from that and the fact that they took 3 weeks to repair nothing, everything else was ok. However, I had a custom ROM installed and when I got it, they had installed a new one whose name I can't remember ("something"-revolution maybe).

Actual problem:

It worked fine for a night but the next day, I couldnt move the ring to unlock the screen. I restarted it,k tried without sd card or sim, changed batteries and nothing. I just freezes in the "Insert pin code" screen and won't let me input anything.

I had CWR but it seems they deleted it and now I have 4ext which can only be used with touch input which doesn't even work in 4ext. (The volume and power buttons work fine).

Final thoughts

What can I do? Since there is no way I can use 4ext or anything in order to factory reset...

I am really mad at the store which f***ed up my phone but I am traveling next week and I really need my phone. :mad:

Anything I could do to factory reset?

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK007:
I don't know how this works against the rules, but would it be okay to post that store's name so that others can avoid it? It sounds like they are not trained for this type of repair. I would hate for others to find out the hard way as you did.

Store

Oh, don't worry. I live in Spain and they only work nationally so I guess you don't have to worry about it. But the name of the store: MovilCom

:D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lewelynn:
If I understand you correctly your phone is rooted and you can access 4ext recovery? If so:

Download one of the custom roms from the development forum, there are a lot of good roms but I recommend Android Revolution HD if you are a beginner.

Place the rom file on your sd card.

Enter recovery by holding down the volume down button and pressing the power button when the phone is off.

Select the option to do a full wipe.

Select install from sd card, look for the rom file you downloaded and install. It should work now.

NOTE: this will erase all the content from your phone and give you a fresh rom install.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashnv:
That won't work

I tried doing that but I can't use 4ext since the touch screen doesn't seem to respond. Before, I hade CW and I could have probabbly flashed a ROM already but as I said, the screen appears to be responseless in 4ext and in normal boot (I can't even input my pin code)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashnv:
No solution...

So, I downloaded a RUU.exe from a stock Gingerbread version with Sense 2.0 (The unlicking system is the old slide down to unlock bar, not the ring) and the problem remains. When I bot, the touch screen is completeley response less. What can this be?

I am beginning to think this might actually have something to do with hardware? Maybe some wire is lose?

Thanks in advance

I've had this problem evern since when I got my phone.

When I upgraded to Fryo 2.2 it work like CHARM!

But I started root and upgraded Gingerbread - ICS, GPS works but it only works when I restart my phone.

Only the big issue is, when I restart my phone to use GPS, and after I used GPS and closed the Google Maps, my gps will never come on again. if you open a maps on the status bar, you will see the GPS is searching but mine dont appear. It only appear when I restart my phone.

I assume that, it is not the hardware issue, because when I restart my phone to use GPS it works really great for first time.

Specially reboot the phone is taking longer. I can't reboot my phone everytime when I need to use GPS...

This driving me crazy....

So I have two hands free sets in my car, one that works very well with music and another one that works very well with calls.

Now would I in any way be able to connect my Xperia S to both, using one of them solely for music (media) and the other solely for taking calls? If so how do I achieve that?

[Kindle Fire General] Poetstylez:
Hello all!

Noob here with a very nooby question....

So, I installed bl1nkk's ICS ROM on my kindle fire a while back & although limited in the SOD department...there was one instance where I had SOD for about 48hrs. I was just wondering if this has been identified as a Kernal issue & possible fix with Hashcode's kernal for ICS that he's been working on? Or is this a specific ROM issue with bl1inkk's ROM & I should just switch ROM's?

Thanks for any & all help!
[Kindle Fire General] gadgetman13:
I've been running the ROM from the thread in my sig ever since it's been out and haven't had a SOD in longer than I can remember. YMMV but I'm insanely happy with this ROM, I'm following HashCode's new kernel thread, but for me this is already daily driver as I don't need HWA for what I use it for.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] TDuran:
^^^ right. could be a low reception area. although if you're willing to tinker, and being a member on here, i assume you are... you'll find that each modem acts differently in different areas. the "best" modem for me in southern california in my single story house might not be the best for you. so now to the tinkering issue... try flashing different modems, let it settle for a while and see which one works best for you. i actually have several modems stored in my phone so if i'm not getting particularily good reception in a certain area, i can flash another! good luck tinkering!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
And to flash modems, you'll need to root, flash a custom ROM or get a custom recovery (red one I mean), and play with flashing modems.

Said it before, and I'll say it again. The Shift is not "Dead" till we say it is :cool: . From the Roms and Kernels I see around here, I think it's going to be quite some time before that happsns. Keep in mind the Shift is an extremely underrated device. It will easily hang with almost any device out there.

Thanks for the info. But I still believe that it's a bad move on they're part. I mean if you look at all the other manufacturers they all have at least one Physical keyboard device. There are, and always will be people who do not like the on-screen KB. Guess I better buy a backup Shift ;) .

Not HTC, but Sprint is rumored to be releasing a new slide out keyboard phone by LG. LG phones are hit and miss and the specs are a little weak for something not yet released, but it should run on LTE. It will have ICS though....only if the shift could run ICS ;-)

...it's based on Leedroids current HC Base, but it could/should also work on older ones.

I really spent painful hours to get this baby here working.

As you noticed theres no APM yet on HC, the reason is, that the code changed on HC and I had to rewrite the APM completly by myself.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kaijura:
Hmm.. I think most view users are USA because of the fire sales.. And since it is CDMA Wimax it originated in US for Sprint. Flyer was sold worldwide.

A couple months back when the major sales for the view ($230-250 US) were happening, there were a lot of people around. Now some of the developers have moved out or pursued different projects..

Enough story telling, I'm glad you brought this much needed feature in here. :)

Hope you stay around, you have a View?

... You are wrong m8. Ressoucres from framework-res and com. Htc.Resources.apk are used by all jars files and also some a apks.

but you can add or remove language settings in the default.xml I thought? which is in the resources? I thought that from there you can add support for things such as arabic. Must be more to it that I didn't know, lol. thanks for clarifying.

3) "choose zip from sdcard"

5) "Yes - Install HC_FLYER_APM.zip"

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] netstat_EVO:
I don't believe it is deodexed. Is this a requirement for your mods to work?

I plan on giving CypherROM 1.1 a shot when spartan is done with it, but as of right now nothing currently available is really appealing to me. (CypherROM would have been listed in the appealing category, but spartan has already started work on 1.1, and I don't enjoy being the guy reflashing every week/day/hour/minute I'd rather just wait)

welp, let the deodexing begin, hopefully I don't create a nice new shiny HTC paperweight in the process lol :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] spartan1987:
Then you're in luck be cause 1.1 will be the last update for awhile so I can shift focus to learning Linux, kernels, and ICS.

1.1 will be much better as it has the bravia engine, Jmztaylors kernel, and HW keys enabled by default. themed APM and EQS should be ready too but I've had issues integrating our previous theme from scabes24 so it may have to be a flashable zip.
