[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
Exactly Kayn and that is why I can't understand why the stock room doesn't do this and more to the point why nobody has raised this issue before. I like the stock ROM. I genuinely do. I find it intuitive. So why can't it automatically connect to my car stereo when Bluetooth is switched on. This custom ROM has no problem doing it. I simply switch on Bluetooth and boom it connects. I need that functionality on the stock ROM if possible :( :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
Im going to flash the newest value pack tomorrow and see if that helps but I doubt it will. I genuinely believe this is an issue with the stock ROM. The only thing that might have caused it if the stock ROM does support it, is if I've removed something using TiBa but I very much doubt it. I didn't touch any core system components.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
Haven't flashed the latest value pack but I've worked out how to make it work. Ridiculous on Samsungs part and I think they need to get their heads out of their arses and sort it.

If I activate Bluetooth before I turn on my car stereo, then it picks it up perfectly.

So if I turn on my car stereo and then switch on bluetooth... doesn't work.

If I turn on bluetooth then switch on my car stereo... works fine.

Absolute joke on Samsungs part that this glitch is the only way I can get it to work. I'll keep investigating and I'll eventually write a guide to help people with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaynpayn:
Makes us both but i can't really cope with the battery drainage when the phone's plugged during several hours (i use loads of battery intensive like torrent-downloading apps, radio streaming, etc and the phone needs to be plugged) so i had to make the change for some custom non-samsung based rom.

Samsung has loads of this minor quirks that make the experience that much less enjoyable. I only found solution in custom roms (very thankful to the devs for that!). Don't think they ever really cared about solving some under-the-hood issues (they did add some new features though) and even went as far as to pull the "flawed by design" apple-move.

I would still tell you to give a shot at customs, some out there are really good, but i can understand not wanting to change something we really like. :)

Good luck with that mate!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
It's not that I don't like custom ROMs, I love custom ROMs but unfortunately, none of them have the Samsung Browser and let's be honest, everyone knows the best Android browser is the stock Samsung one. The browser that came with MIUI was very choppy and laggy.

I get decent battery life out of my stock ROM, but if I had to leave BT on permanently this would go down a lot! I suppose i just need to remember that as I get into my car, turn on BT and it'll connect first time.

Just crap that other Custom ROMs can search on enable and connect. Worst still, I can't believe we're the only ones who have this issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaynpayn:
I never thought samsung browser was something that good, i hardly even see it being mentioned. I never really used it much since i have not used sammy's roms since ginger bread came out, but have you tried opera mobile? This is, by far, the best browser I've used, it's not even fair to compare - it's on a totally different league. I was actually losing hope of decent browsing (tried just about anything) on Android until i came across opera. Needs to be the mobile and not the mini. Faith in Android browsing restored :)

if you haven't, give it a shot, free on market. If that's the main reason not to use a custom rom, you may be changing your mind soon :)

http://blog.gsmarena.com/motorola-cliq-2-finally-gets-android-2-3-gingerbread-update/

Motorola has finally released Android 2.3 Gingerbread update for its year and a half old Cliq 2 smartphone.

Will the Defy get such great surprise?

The cliq 2 has similar hardware of Defy, but with a qwerty keyboard in addition....

https://rsddownload.motorola.com/download/MotorolaVersion.2.0.87.MB611.T-Mobile.en.US.pdf

https://motorola-global-portal.cust...sion/L3RpbWUvMTMzNjM4OTcxMC9zaWQvSXlFa052WGs=

T Mobile has just paused Defy Upgrade upto 2.2.1 .... Hence do we see them updating to Ginger Bread 2.3 ? Hope for the best !
[Defy General] vap_66:
FTFY! :p

This was probably an error or something, it's not Motorola's style.
[Defy General] popcorn1122:
No I confirmed this on motorola website:

No, no, I didn't say that you were wrong, I've read the news too. But the fact that Motorola is offering an update to an older phone... Seems almost like an error from them :D.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] alvinhochun:
I am using the official rom. The IME, which I think should be TouchPal, prebuilt in it reacts a lot slower than GB. I wonder if it was the problem of ICS overall or the IME itself.

Hello,

I have Htc One X from o2 UK with o2 Startup screen which I would like to remove. The phone has been ulocked using an unlock code.

Can you please help?

You'll have to Root and Install a Stock Unbranded ROM.

OR

Root and remove the 02 Splash screen using Root explorer.

Either way, you need to Root.

You can do titanium backup (market) but I am not sure if you can backup system apps+data without root. But most of things can be saved.

Nothing on internal memory - virtual server - will be lost so photos and music is safe..

Don't forget about nandroid backup

Hello TommUK.

I have full root and am using ES File Explorer fully set up to mount read/write Root.

Could you please tell me the location of the splash screen on the One X and the file name ?

the usual splash1.img as per all my other HTC's doesnt seem present.

Any help would be unreal, I have made custom up and down animations and would like a matching splash before I post them for all to see !

Thnx.
[HTC One X] seanicca:
Cant remember where it goes but i remember having to rename the zip file to bootanimation.zip. If you take a look in themes & apps section there are plenty of threads explaining properly
[HTC One X] hopscotchjunkie:
He's talking about the splash screen, not the boot animation. On previous HTC phones you needed s-off to be able to write to splash using fastboot; I imagine it's the same on this phone, which means currently we can't change it (until someone manages to obtain s-off). I certainly haven't seen a method mentioned anywhere.
[HTC One X] jotha:
Sorry, but there is NO possibility to remove a splash-screen on One X. You can remove/exchange boot-animation, but the absolute first picture shown during boot is hidden in a partition that is not accessible without s-off. And even with s-off would be a rather complicated adventure, becasue all the tools existing for older HTC-Phones do not work with the resolution of One X.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aster190:
Hi, I'm trying to free up some space on CM7 by deleting system apps, but that doesn't seem to free up any space at all. I'm guessing that that's a different partition, so is there a way I could expand the internal storage partition? I want to avoid using a sd-ext since I don't have much space on my sd card
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xam247:
I really like the app s2e which lets you move just the Dalvik cache to the SD card without any noticeable performance hit. It isn't much space ~90MB but that makes a big difference for the internal storage.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aster190:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zroice:
Hello,

I've read quite a bit about the so called silent sms or stealth sms which can be send to your phone to track you down and which do not show up as actual sms received.

I already did an intensive search for an app or something to detect those sms - they have to be recognized by the phone somehow, so there must be a way to get this information and display it to the user doesnt it?

I'm pretty sure there would be plenty of interest for an app like that, but since I have no clue where to start I'm askin here for help.

Is there any tool out there that could achieve this? Are silent sms registered in the Android System at all so that they could be detected?

Hope someone can enlighten me a bit.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herrsch0rdev:
discussed this topic with some people in the past. I think you need a baseband change to detect, and most basebands are proprietary

Hi everyone....my beloved HD2s screen has lost the ability to accept touch commands! It started two days ago...slowly at first then more and more often until only restarts got the screen working and now it's just completely unresponsive. Hard buttons work ok but nothing else.

I have had Android running though NAND. I also flashed an original WM6.5 Rom and still nothing.

Anyone else experience this before?

Thanks!

Sounds like digitizer problem.

Just press end call (power) key really hard and hold it for few seconds (digitizer is just underneath it) and the screen should work just fine.

any of the hardware keys

[HTC One S] xdahd2:
I woke up in the middle of the night (4am.) because my phone pretty much burned me and scared the hell out of me while it was charging. The phone was there with a black screen and heated a little over 120 degrees f (measured by a meat thermometer :eek: ).

When I pressed the lock button to unlock it, it turned on (I left it charging on) and had less than 50% of battery left. As i pressed the lock button again, the phone rebooted two more times until it let me turn it off.

Anyone know what's wrong and should I contact htc or costco from which I bought it from?
[HTC One S] Rafaruto:
Do you use the charger / usb cable given by HTC ?

Because one time, I tried to charge my phone with another usb cable and my phone was also hot ! (But I don't think like you wow !)

My wife always gives me a hard time for sleeping with my phone, lol, it's on our lamp table next to our bed, but since I don't like leaving the phone on a hard surface, it's usually next to me on our bed, LOL.

Mines was overheating a bit when charging with an extended second party charger, but once I started using the HTC charger that came with the phone, it was fine. Also seemed to charge faster with the stock charger, maybe it's a figment of my imagination, who knows.
[HTC One S] horr1blek1tten:
My phone heated up crazy mad when I watched a movie through the mhl adapter and since the phone is some kind of metal, therefore a perfect conductor, the whole phone was painfully hot to touch. Scared me ****less I've had a lot of android phones and this is the first time . I didn't want to chance it and exchanged it in store still within my 15 day exchange period whew. Anybody know what woulda caused it to overheat like an oven?

mines heats up too. is this every or just some units?

it heats up when playing games or surfing the web.

Mine heats up as well it's all phones.

I had this problem with my Amaze/etc.

Replacement will be the same so don't bother.
[HTC One S] Fraction:
Proven to be wrong
[HTC One S] ptweasel:
The amperage of the adapter doesn't matter, as the phone will only draw as much current as it needs, and no more.

I use the charger for my HP Touchpad with all kinds of phones, and it's rated for 5V 2.0amps.
[HTC One S] icecicle:
Mine stays at 105 degrees when I'm doing any gpc or 4g stuff on it when its not charging or anything is that normal ?
[HTC One S] ptweasel:
I think of it this way... I have a dual core 1.5ghz processor running inside a super thin aluminum case. I expect it to get hot, and even hotter when charging or under load. As long as I'm in warranty and the phone still works fine, I'm not going to worry about it.

Now, if it's causing SOD problems, that's different.
[HTC One S] horr1blek1tten:
Just some units have a faulty battery or loose cable ever since I exchanged my faulty heating up one no heating at all
[HTC One S] Richy101:
I'd be careful where you leave your phone charging. The daughter of family friends left her phone unattended charging on the bed and unfortunately set the bed on fire. This went on to pretty much destroy the house. NOT an urban myth either. Laptops and anything that charges need a little caution.

For those sleeping with their phones - stop it! The phone is big enough to sleep on its own :D
[HTC One S] -deuces-:
My overheating is gone I believe. It was there the first 24 hours. I guess because it was the first time it was being used.

After I fully charged it off, it doesnt get as hot anymore.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:

That was a one time thing hasn't happen agian.
[HTC One S] Mathato:
First few days it got real hot... Now a little warmth nothing to worry about.
[HTC One S] fsamoggia:
well, it did happen to me too, while i was using google navigator and connected to the (htc) car charger. Got really hot but it hasnt happened since.

I actually rooted the phone after it happened and underclocked the phone, I rarely would need 1.5ghz of speed, 1.1 is more than enough for me.

The problem with data connection is far more annoying, after a while has been connected to wifi switching back to hsdpa fails all the time until i reboot the phone. Fantastic....
[HTC One S] mmceorange:
Same here, phone was hot first day I had it. Except mine was hot while in my pocket, not charging. AND it was sucking down battery life like crazy.

Then I turned pocket mode off, and it's been great ever since. But perhaps it was just coincidence in timing..
[HTC One S] syntropic:
Yes...not alone. I am on day 3 (or 2..they all blend together when you stare at your phone all day not paying attention to clocks or daylight) of ownership, and I plugged it in while adding apps and surfing, etc. It wasn't near low battery, but I just liked keeping a full charge when I can.

I then feel asleep and woke up, like the OP said... I touched it, and drew my hand back as if I touched a hot stove. It had to be at least 120°! And of course my own guilt sets in because I unlocked the bootloader, rooted it, and installed a Swype keyboard. And even though it was the stock ROM, I just figured I screwed it up.

I am actually relieved that I am not the only one. And I just hope it doesn't happen again.
[HTC One S] Circledog:
I had mine in my pocket the other night, it got super hot and the battery was almost dead. It was almost fully charged a half hour earlier and was in my pocket 25 mins until I started having hot flashes and pulled it out. Scary since I'm only 37 and a man...lol
[HTC One S] Akatosh:
Ok guys. Although I don't have a One s ( yet hopefully anyway), on my sensation which overheats like a **tch, reduce the brightness when using the phone, especially when charging. That's what did it for me. I think that it's just HTC that have overheating in their phones, I think their cooling system is abysmal if it ever existed. Anyway, turn of your syncs and reduce the brightness to about 40%, I do that and i've watched Lord of the rings 3 while charging and didn't experience any overheating whatsoever :D

Hope this helped.
[HTC One S] mannequin:
i believe the initial batch of t-mo HOS suffered from major overheating and other problems (like the loose sim cover, misplaced led notification led and yellow tinted screens). the phone could easily go above 40C without doing anything major with it and my friend got a slight ear skin burn by answering it while it was charging. no joke.

the batch that came a week or so later is entirely different story, however. the units feel slightly different in your hand for some strange reason too. they never go beyond 35C either, even under the heaviest loads and idle at 20+C. you can talk for hours while on charge and it doesn't even feel warm. the only condition for it to get quite warm to the touch (but never hot) is under the fluctuating signal when the phone has to switch through network speeds a lot trying to load anything.
[HTC One S] Leviathan2k:
Mine hasn't done this yet, and I've charged it using the HTC charger/cable, old cable from the Desire from the PC USB port, an HTC car charger, and an iPhone charger using an old no-name microUSB cable - no problems whatsoever. The only time the device became warm at all is when I recorded 720p video for 20 minutes, and it was just warm, not hot at all.
[HTC One S] kurigami:
Guys, keep in mind that all android phones will heat up to a fairly high temp at some point or another. If you're using the stock ROM, go into the "My Device" app, go under storage and battery, tap your battery life and look at temp. Anything under 140 is usually safe. If you're not using stock ROM there's plenty of apps in market for this.
[HTC One S] mmceorange:
YEA! Like I mentioned I did, try going into sound settings and turning off pocket mode. I haven't had the issue since and recently got about 63 hours on a single charge :D

(not that I'm saying that is the only factor affecting battery life..)

How do you disable pocket mode?

Pull down notifications -> settings -> sound

Overheating during HTC Car navigation

my HTC One S overheated during a short test of the HTC Car navigation app.

The trip was only 15 minutes long and the unit heated up to 50°C (122°F).

To be honest, it was a rather warm, sunny day (28°C), so maybe that has some influence.

The phone was mounted in the HTC D100 cradle and connected with the carcharger that came with the cradle.

One last detail: I was using Google Navigation

Meanwhile I've done some other test using HTC Locations with and without active data connection, with the charger connected and not connected.

But the unit always appears to heat up to at least 45°C.

I haven't tried a long trip yet, but I'm afraid this would fry the phone.

Here's a screendump of a "Battery Monitor" app, that recorded the increase in temperature.

How can they fix it? Put a fan inside to circulate air?

All smartphones will get hot, and with the one s being aluminum it feels more hot than it actually is, it being a conductor compared to plastic which is not a conductor.

There's really nothing a manufacturer can do about a phone getting a little hot besides underclocking by crazy amounts, which then it just defeats the purpose.
