[Droid 2 Global Android Development] zyy757:
Not sure, but I hear that cm9 is OK
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] sd_shadow:

if you find a rom that works, let us know
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] RGBubba34:
So this is confirmes to work to regain root on a phone that is not bricked? My wife has a D2g.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] zyy757:
sure. it work
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] ravenhr:
Yup. It works. I have one, now rooted (deleted all Verizon bloatware)...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] reyrey5:
Will I lose everything by flashing the .608?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] ravenhr:
Yes, because, you need to do full wipe...

But, if you have checked in Settings->Privacy->Back up my data, check Automatic restore (same place) after flashing (ofc, if you use same account). It will restore all your apps (download them again, not set them up).
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] reyrey5:
Ok, it was weird because I been avoiding the the update but one day my 4 year old gave me my phone and said"Dad, I hit OK"... Thanks again.

[Droid 2 Global Android Development] thewanton:
uh, the link is dead for the .608 download. anyone have it?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] sd_shadow:
edit you want the repacked

try here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23207-how-to-sbf-unbricking-root-d2g-629/
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
So I followed this guide and successfully rooted my d2g. Only thing i dont like is every few minutes i get an "update failed" message because the phone is trying to download the official 2.3.4 update even though i applied it with the update.zip file. Anyone know what i can do to get rid of it?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] sd_shadow:
is your phone version still listed as 4.5.608, settings/about phone
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
I had problems with wifi after downgrading to .608 and flash repacked .629 so I had to download OTA Root Keeper from another device and install with adb..

Here is a copy of OTA Root Keeper if anyone needs it: http://min.us/muARnFIxG

Please PM me if link doesn't work
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] ravenhr:
WiFi CAN be problematic sometimes... It can be tricked, like You did... How to fix that, I don't know... The main problem is that sometimes, after reinstalling, it won't connect to WiFi and sometimes it will...

BTW, thanks for OTA Root Keeper link ;)

Hello friends

I'm looking for the best music player that has ICS style.

It is to my LG P500 with ICS.

Sorry For my Bad English :rolleyes:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bombadier:
Google Music?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dafabsl:
i think google music is the best for ICS because it includes a status bar notification thing :D

and it shows up on the lock screen..

but i'm not happy with google music in my opinion it uses a lot of cpu and i had a lot of FC's with that :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost shell:
Noob alert!

From what I heard is that CyanogenMod is one of the best ROMs, that was why I was thinking on installing it.

It is also based on the AOSP which makes the code cleaner with less bloatware I guess.

The problem is that I checked the nightly build known issues FAQ and there is no TV out or encryption, nor BLN, which are all very cool features to me.

1) Can you guys recommend me any other ROMs to look into? (that is CF-root CWM friendly)

2) What other advantages are there to the ROM being forked from AOSP?

3) I have recently used CF-root and have kernel 2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG2-CL375027se.infra@SEI-21 #2

Is there any problem in using kTool to flash to a 3.x kernel? Do I need to do anything first?

Thank you for the help.
[HTC One X] JimmyEatFood:
I have noticed that my screen is flickering ever so slightly in all applications. it is bearable but slightly annoying. Could this be hardware related and will I have grounds for a warrenty replacement? should I wait and see if any OTAs resolve it?

Everything is stock. Brightness is set to auto.

I have problems with shadowgun crashing when there is an explosion etc. possibly related?
[HTC One X] backstabz0r:
Yeah, i noticed this too on my One X :( I've mostly seen it while my mobile data connection was on, and it seems to decrease a lot but not completely disappear when it's off. I also got a weird message yesterday while charging, saying something along the lines of "your phone is using too much current, -" (the message was in dutch, not sure what the exact message is in english) my phone turned off before I could completely read it. I wonder if those issues are somehow related. Maybe the screens backlight isn't getting enough power when the radio is on. Anyways, I'm not an expert, so don't quote me on that.

I also heard the tegra 3 drivers are buggy, so shadowgun crashing and performance drops etc. will hopefully be resolved in future updates.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
I've got it as well I think it's a driver issue the last thing I want to do is go for a replacement and that to have more dud stuff as this is the only dud thing on mine. Everything else is fine apart from flickers now and then.
[HTC One X] mehuldave25:
See developer option

hey jimmy go to Menu->settings-> Developer options and untick all the option restart your phone and magic..... screen flickering will disappear

---------- Post added at 11:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------

@backstabz0r for screen flickering pls refer to my earlier ans and for your problem which you got warning message thats common warning you get when you have put phone in charge and if you using it for gaming which consumpts more nergy then, message will be" battery consumption is more then the supply"

so suggest ou to let battery get charged till 30 % and then use it for gaming or any other apps
[HTC One X] mertzi:
I've read a few threads here regarding the flicker and it seems some people are confusing flicker with something that I really don't know what to call.

Flicker for me is when there's a stroboscope-ish effect, like when you place your sight just above an old CRT monitor, or when a fluorescent light is on it's last breath. Not when what you see on the screen makes random movements a few pixels in any direction.

I have flicker on my HOX. But it's only noticeable on lower brightness levels. This happens in all applications and in settings menu, everything with white or light grey background, so not related to badly written apps. But I wonder if this really CAN be software related? Has this happened with other models from various manufacturers?
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
I've got what your describing quite a few users have. I believe it could be down to the drivers for the Soc. Might just need a driver update. Only the next update we can tell if this fixes the issue or not. We need to pressure HTC regarding this issue.
[HTC One X] mertzi:
But is it really possible that a driver issue can cause flicker? I've never seen it before.

I tweeted @htcdev earlier today about it but no response yet. I wonder what the best way to make htc aware of this is. Contacting their lousy customer support feels pointless, it won't reach the people who actually can make an impact.
[HTC One X] JimmyEatFood:
This is what I have, but its far worse on higher brightness levels.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Right guys untick animations in Developer options, restart give it a while, go into camera you'll notice glitches, play a YouTube video you'll notice green bar on the left hand side of the screen in full screen mode. Untick animations and this disappears. It's worrying not sure what to do now.

Edit: can't repeat this but will keep trying as something did trigger it off for the screen to go like that.
[HTC One X] backstabz0r:
Yeah, with flicker I didn't mean anything like having low fps when scrolling through stuff. I meant a quite noticable fluctuation in the brightness of the backlight if that makes sense. It is indeed quite like a CRT monitor with a low refresh rate. I haven't seen it yet when my screen brightness was high, but I'm not sure if it doesn't occur on higher brightness settings. It is also not constantly flickering, It only seems to act up when my mobile data connection is active, although I have seen a very slight flickering with data turned off. I really hope this isn't a hardware issue, the rest of my phone is pretty much perfect and I'd rather not send it in for a replacement after all the trouble I had with my sensation :/
[HTC One X] AndroidInsanity:
I have the flicker issue, the screen flickers near the center a little bit to the right though, and it is reall irratating, but i can only see it when viewing pictures and on greys.

I hope it isn't hardware!!

tried all the ideas given to stop it but none work for me, still seems to flicker :(
[HTC One X] PaulBelfast:
Me too

I have the screen flickering too.

Im reluctant to return it as apart from this the handset is solid.

It on appears on certain colours making me think its software related.
[HTC One X] dr9722:
I also have the exact same flicking issue. From what I have heard it is a software issue rather than a hardware issue. Just to be on the safeside though I am returning my One X to Phones4U for a replacement. Will be interesting to see if the replacement has the same issue.
[HTC One X] mertzi:
I made a thorough check yesterday. I downloaded a brightness control app where you can write what brightness level you want so i tried from 3% which was the lowest possible step by step up to 15%. At 15 the flicker stops so its not 30 as I said before. this is my only issue too so I dont dare to replace it just to get a worse phone. My sister is getting one next week so gonna compare them.
[HTC One X] nickp123:
I noticed this too, but i believe its a software issue only. When I unlock the phone, the screen flickers while sense runs and the three menu button appears then goes. Once its all settled its fine. I believe this is to do with sense rather than a phone issue, and will be addressed via OTA.
[HTC One X] dr9722:
Not so sure about it being a specific Sense issue as I have noticed the screen flicking in 3rd party apps such as Spotify.
[HTC One X] johnbhoy89:
has anyone had theirs replaced yet? this is doing my head in! really noticeable on a grey background
[HTC One X] dr9722:
Phones4U are sending me out a bag to send it back so hopefully should have a replacement by Monday or Tuesday.
[HTC One X] johnbhoy89:
I phoned dialaphone there, i made them aware of the problem with my phone, told them if it wasnt fixed with the update then I would like to replace my phone, told me I had until next tuesday to see if its fixed, until I reminded her about distance selling regulations which gives me 28 days from receiving the handset.
[HTC One X] dr9722:
You do indeed have 28 days to return your phone however I wouldn't count on HTC releasing an update before then :mad:
[HTC One X] georgemaier:
Any note on 1.28s battery performance in addition to screen fixes? My battery drains super fast and sometimes only seems to trickle charge when plugged in, rather than charge at full speed.
[HTC One X] mohsinraza:
I haven't found anyone who updated to 1.28 from 1.26 BUT have found people who were on 1.26 with issues and swapped their phones from the providers and got 1.28 with no issues.

I hope OTA will soon be appearing if it's ONLY software, which I think, it isn't.

[HTC One X] vaidv:
screen issues

Can someone confirm me wats dis 1.26 and 1.28 mentioned in discussions and how can I check it on my phone?
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
It's a firmware upgrade. 1.2.8 will be the next supposed updated firmware. Go into about phone and there is software update section check for an OTA.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Okay thanks... Well hopefully its 100% the software (1.28) that has resolved the problems, including the flicker, and not that there has been a change within the hardware on those devices too.

Shame nobody has performed the upgrade that could confirm that upgrading also resolves the issues too. Thanks for the info!
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
I've spoken to Vodafone and can only DOA to change my device 2 times (max 3 devices), so not sure what to do now. 1st device had a few bugs I couldn't live me; second device only has this flicker so changing it means risking getting a worse device. They has said I can hand this phone back and go back to my old phone; to which I have until this Thursday if that's what I wish to do. Again the problem with this is that I am not going to know when to re-order to ensure I get a "working" device without faults.

I don't want to not have this phone now as it really is amazing.

Need a statement from HTC.

lalit sehgal: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1597448

Olga: you can certainly try the full factory reset as a last resort to see if it helps.

lalit sehgal: i did

lalit sehgal: no help no use

Olga: If you still have the problem then it is most likely a hardware fault

lalit sehgal: i am not sure why all of us are facing this

Olga: and in this case would be best if you returned the phone to the store

lalit sehgal: u mean hardware faults with so many sold......

lalit sehgal: what abt quality check?

Olga: as i have mentioned we are not aware of this issue.

Olga: We do not know how many devices are affected.

As I don't see any OTA coming I'm gonna send my phone back for a replacement. It's a shame that I won't have a phone during this time but that is my last day to send it for a replacement. After that it's gonna be a repair and last time my phone went to repair it came back in a pretty bad shape... Just can't take the risk the OTA does not work...
[HTC One X] mertzi:
and you shouldn't! HTC deserves all these DOA's as they've been very arrogant apple style as they haven't made any statements at all. I sent mine back today too, and I asked Three to hold the delivery of a new phone if they can until they've received a new shipment of phones.

Least they have acknowledged the problem this time around, and they have said they are looking in to it. Not very useful I know, but them accepting there is a problem is at least a step in the right direction.

Sadly my one X also suffers from screen flickering :(

I have will try to have a chat with HTC support in Norway tomorrow to see if they can give me any more information. I have also commented on several facebook postes on the HTC group regarding this issue.

Would be nice to get feedback from HTC to confirm if this is a software issue or a hardware issue.. At the moment I am waiting to get more info from HTC before I return it to get a new phone..
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Do let us know if HTC in Norway offer anymore info than what we currently have. Any feedback is appreciated; and your right we only want an official statement as to whether we should keep the Phone and wait for an OTA to fix the problem or if we should return the phone and wait for a statement about new batches being dispatched.

I'd like to believe you but as tomorrow is my last day for an exchange I can't take the risk
[HTC One X] mertzi:
having read that article I think we should start speaking of backlight flickering and something we can call the other kind of screen issue. In my eyes it's distortion, not flickering.

There's still confusion between us users regarding what the flickering is. On the phone I returned today it was backlight flickering, no picture distortion.
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Your probably right. As we have said there is definitely 2x issues being discussed in this topic; one being the backlight flickering issue & one being the image distortion on videos etc...
[HTC One X] Scorpion183:
I can t say why not all of the one x have that problem but i know that mine was ok on the first days, the screen ticker cames later. And it depense on the conditions. I think that the one x screen wasen t produce in one factury, that would explain that some one x have the screen flicker and the other not.

I read in many forums that the peaple who flashed another firmware on the one x that the flicker disappears

Gesendet von meinem HTC One X mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One X] Scorpion183:
Mine problem is the backlight flickering, for all the people who has the other flickering its better that they change the one x. Because I just know that it is the backlight flicker problem the will be fixed with the update.

Gesendet von meinem HTC One X mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
How do you know this though? We are all hoping it will be but no official statement has been made.
[HTC One X] Spl4tt:
i think the opposite.

if the backlight flickers it could rly be the hardware, but the other one could be a CPU bug wich, indeed can get fixed

so, let's cross our fingers
[HTC One X] DazNoonan:
Both could be hardware or software to be honest which is why we are seeking HTC to give us a statement on it. :(
[HTC One X] fluke73:
The distortion is visible on other places than videos like when you're switching tabs in the web browser and in the adress bar in the browser.

Look at this for example (As mentioned in my previous post):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3GierGP6a4&feature=youtu.be

You can see the same thing here in a screenshot:

http://www.flukeworld.com/HTCOneX_Screenshot/Screenshot_1.jpg

I have sent a message to the HTC Support but haven't heard from them yet.
[HTC One X] Patersr03:
If people could give me more videos or screenshots of this I can forward all this to my direct contact with HTC, I reported this to him as I seen it on the white variants as the grey one giving to me by HTC does not do this. The white ones I was using only done this when I enabled the flash player in the browser but by this thread it looks like more than that.
[HTC One X] pohsze:
i had the most annoying screen flickering which was hardware problem. brought to service center and they swapped a new phone for me.
[HTC One X] 131313:
you are correct but I am suggesting you turn this on and off again. So it should effectively after the interaction be turned off. The way it probably is supposed to be but gets mixed up somehow. So if you turn it on and off again you have a proper turned off state.

No more of these waiting screens for me now the 1X rocks

The screen flickering has ended as well.

Mine only does it when there is background dimming, for example when you go and change the brightness on the screen the whole of the background has a transparent smoke effect that's when mine flickers. Other than that it never flickers.

btw, my screen flicker is worst when looking at the standard images from HTC in the "camera shots" folders.

one of those pictures has snow plains with a sun, for me, it is flickering like crazy around the sun..
