You need some different AMD driver for fastboot to work.

I found the same problem with AMD machine and used a different driver posted by someone on this forum.

Search for it and you will be ok to boot into fastboot once it is properly installed.

But the phone is connected in fastboot mode.. blue led and everything..

the only things listed are:

* Base System Device

* Bluetooth Peripheral Device

* Bluetooth Peripheral Device

* Bluetooth Peripheral Device

* Bluetooth Peripheral Device

* Bluetooth Peripheral Device

But I can eject the device by clicking on the icon in the bottom right.. and that reads "Eject S1Boot Fastboot" ..

but why isnt it listed in device manager? :(

Hello I have a problem with the phone out of power at some web browsing to go down 15 percent and phone warming reaches 42 degrees. How to solve it
[Legend General] Stevemotto:
First of all, check your brightness levels are not outrageously high or on automatic.

Is your phone OC'ed (overclocked)? If it is make sure that the frequencies aren't set too high (Max 800mhz, varies for different phones).

If your phone is already rooted and running an overclock app, you can lower the frequencies when you don't really need it.

Sometimes you may be running too many apps so your battery will die quicker. Make sure to close an app after using it.

Lower the amount of widgets you may have on your home screens, Widgets are known to drain power especially if you have alot.

Make sure to turn off wifi and 3G when it isn't needed. If you use internet excessively, the battery drain will obviously show. The only way to prevent this to limit your time spent on the net on your phone.

Aeroplane mode when you don't need your phone also helps save battery.

You can also download apps from Google play that helps with saving battery (juice defender) but don't always rely on it.

Well that's about the most tips I can help you with, battery drain is a normal issue and can only be minimized so don't fret when it happens :). In regard to your overheating issue, if you use your phone for a long period, its expected for the phone to heat up especially for the Legend because the aluminum body acts as a heat sink.

Hi there,

and this mean that i don`t have Arabic support.

So i thought to flash a Rom with Arabic ,but the problem is that i feel like i`m

I have some questions:

1-If i flashed another rom from here

Will it prevent me from upgrading to ICS in the future.

2-What is gold card (and why do i need it)? and what`s s-on&off?

3-Will the above rom harm my phone anyway or disable any feature?

sorry for too many question,i am kinda a newbie with HTC

I used to have samsung and flashing was way easier than HTC

Thanks in advance

I've got an HTC desire, and recently flashed Cyanogenmod. But, the only thing that I miss from Sense UI, is the photo album widget, the one where you could swipe away all your photos.

Yes, newbie here, late to the party, but I can't post my question in the thread below:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11417869&postcount=1

I have a plain stock T-Mobile HD2.

I have followed the instructions: Installed MAGLDR and the correct radio.

I have a brand new C10 16GB micro SD card that I formatted in the phone.

I transferred the unpacked zip file from my desktop folder to the SD card through a card reader.

I execute clrcad.exe and haret.exe.

I get the linux screen on my phone, then the "Powered by AmeriCan Android" screen.

After that, nothing. The screen stays up and there is no further progress. This is after leaving the phone alone for 1 hour plus. The oonly way to change anything on the phone at this point is to pull the battery.

The most current download discussion starts at page 1800, and I did not find direct references to the problem I am having.

The same problems occur with an 8GB sd card (not sure of the class, which is why I got a new one).

Any tips?

Thanks.

un-zip the file americanandroid.7z,

then copy the extracted folder ("Android")to the root of your sdcard.../sdcard/Android
[General Questions and Answers] danski0224:
By "root" do you mean drag the "32-AmeriCanAndroid 030812(sd)" folder from the .zip file and then drop it on the "Storage Card" folder for my HD2? I did search for what "root" means, and this is my understanding.

I did not purposely create an additional folder, but "32-AmeriCanAndroid 030812(sd)" is in it's own folder under "Storage Card".

There is a folder called "Application Data" with subfolders called "HTC", "databases", "Image Cache" and "DocExp". Is AmeriCan Android supposed to be located there?

I am using XP if it matters.
[General Questions and Answers] shanman-2:
After extracting the .7z file open it copy the folder called Android which is in the folder AmericanAndroid

when you open you sdcard on your computer just paste the folder into it .
[General Questions and Answers] danski0224:
That's what I did.

Then when I try to open it in the phone using file explorer (clrcad.exe then haret.exe) the app seems to open, then it hangs at the opening screen.

I left the phone alone for an hour (plugged into a wall charger, not my desktop PC USB port), and it never progressed further.

Had to pull the battery to get out.

I dropped my phone yesterday and cracked the digitizer. I have a "spare" MT4GS I picked up that I thought was soft bricked. I tried swapping the mainboards but the spare LCD appeared to be shot. Then I pulled the phones completely apart and found that the spare digitizer was also shot. Great....

Parts are on order.

Warning! Easy to damage LCD

That step of removing the bezel frame from behind the LCD? Yeah, I ruined my screen doing that. As I gather have a bunch of other people. The problem is that there's so much adhesive, and on an older phone it gets really stiff, such that even if you heat it up quite a bit it's really easy to accidentally pull apart/bend/otherwise ruin the LCD trying to get that bezel off. My suggestion: don't do this yourself. Have a professional repair it or just get a new phone :P

Keyboard slide-out sensor?

I've been searching all over this forum and google regarding a hardware related problem I've been having. Although my problem isn't specifically related to the original post, I figured this thread might be the best place to ask, since my issue will involve disassembling my phone and locating a specific component.

This problem started 2 days ago during normal use (didn't drop it or get it wet):

Whenever my keyboard is closed, the screen works in portrait mode just fine. But after starting to slide out the keyboard, the screen freezes in portrait view and doesn't respond. Then if I slide the keyboard back in, the screen unfreezes and is working as if nothing happened.

If my screen is in standby and I open the keyboard, my screen does that multi-color pixelated thing where it almost looks grey, and then I close it and the screen is fine once again. (I know, it's most likely a loose connection)

**One factor worth noting is that the screen doesn't simply freeze/unfreeze at just any random point when sliding out the keyboard. Anyone who uses this phone knows how the keyboard kinda snaps open and snaps shut. After testing this problem countless times, I've noticed that the screen freezes EXACTLY after unsnapping the slide, stays frozen no matter how far I open the keyboard and finally only unfreezes exactly after the keyboard is snapped shut again. This is a very small and specific area, and this never changes.

So, the first logical conclusion I'd made was that the keyboard slide-mechanism had caused one of the screen ribbons to come loose whenever it slides out. But after thinking about how specific it was that this problem only happens within that tiny margin (snap/unsnap) and nowhere else, I'm starting to think it may not be one of those ribbons afterall.

And now I'm starting to wonder, what internal sensor/switch is responsible for telling the screen to switch to landscape once the keyboard is open?

I've watched quite a few youtube how-to videos, studied diagrams & close-ups up internal parts, but all I've seen so far are stationary-connections. There are so many different ways to design these tiny things that it helps to have an idea what I'm looking for.

So does anyone know exactly where this slide sensor/switch is, and what it looks like?

(I always prefer to research thoroughly & redundantly before attempting risky endeavors)

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
Off hand I would say there is a small magnet, I know there is in other HTC phones and although I have opened my doubleshot many times I can't recall one, but I'm fairly certain there would be.

But I'm thinking you need the main flex cable
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] @eon:
Alright, I wasn't sure. I wanted to consider any other possibilities and what to look for. And I'm quite possibly over-thinking this, but it seems like whenever I go in assuming I'll figure it out, I end up making things worse...

(...Like the time I tried to reflow the CPU on an Xbox motherboard; lets just say I'm never trying that again)

Thanks
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ziida:
My Doubleshot of 2 years just got this problem about a month ago. Whenever I slide out the screen goes black... but not right away! it takes it about 1 second before it goes black. Also when the error was just developing (for about 1 or 2 days) the screen would turn black when slid out, but then if the screen was turned off and back on it would work perfectly! Clearly this wasn't just a simple torn flex cable...

Sorry I can't be more help... but there's definitely something else failing in our phones!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] @eon:
Hmm, it kinda would seem that something (not sure what) is sending a 'Standby' signal to your screen instead of the 'Landscape' signal; like a strange glitch between the power button and the slide-out sensor, crossed signals or something. But who knows, especially if the device is rooted (mine is, but my biggest problems are hardware related); I've had custom ROMs in the past that, over time, would develop a sort of 'hiccup' and cause certain common functions to misbehave. My point was, your issue could be either software or hardware related and without 1st-hand experience I can't say.

Mine is most likely hardware related because there were no recent software changes, and this just happened between text conversations; about 2 mins apart. Now it seems to be a condition that needs to be physically repaired and I really don't want to.... I kinda want to go all "Ol' Yeller" on the poor bastard and introduce it to my Walther P99. Nah, I couldn't do that.

F**kin phones. Hate em, can't live without em.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ziida:
Mine's not software. I've flashed other ROMs and it even happens to the boot screen / recovery. I think HTC wanted $100 to repair it, too :(

ALMOST feels like a case of "planned obsolescence" except it doesn't seem to be happening to many people.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] @eon:
I know the feeling. I paid $6/month phone-replacement "insurance" for like 4 years without incident, then when I finally needed to make a claim, they wanted a $125 "deductible". I'm thinking, "Dude, I've already paid over twice that much and now you want more?". And HTC doesn't even offer refurb-replacements, just over-priced repairs.

As far as "planned obsolescence", they say that all new technology becomes obsolete every 3 months until the next new thing takes its place. I'm just glad that I went out of contract on the MT4GS, it's so much better than the MT4G (although the slide took some getting used to).

And yes, if this happens on the boot/recovery screens it is most definitely hardware.

Question is: What is it?

I now (kinda) know how to open this phone up, but I only know the basics regarding connections via youtube and a few diagrams. And my problem seems quite simple, but how the hell should I know? If it isn't simply a loose connection and it's obviously not the screen itself, then I'm probably just going to have to fully disassemble it then reassemble while double checking connections.

Still kinda procrastinating on taking this phone apart, I've had bad luck in the past.. (always assuming I'll find a loose connection, and end up breaking something else before I find anything). Fingers crossed n stuff.
