Before we had our cables produced for us and started making them available, MotoCache1 wrote up the procedure and explanation and posted it.

We were very sensitive to accusations that we were trying to exploit users who had bricked their phones by selling them overpriced cables.

The truth is that having these custom made in very small quantities is expensive, especially doing it domestically in the US using premium quality components.

I dont know if any of you guys know this but if you call moto and till them the phone you got from verizon was referbished they will send you a new charging block and usb data cable for free i did this and my new moto cable works good
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
So, basically, all I need to do is add a split to the pin 1 wire so that I can provide power to both pins 1 and 4?
[Motorola Droid 3] leerpsp:
Moto will send you a free one
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
A free programming cable?! I doubt that.
[Motorola Droid 3] leerpsp:
a free usb data cable with power block is what im talking about all you have to do is till them that verizon did not send you one and they send you a new one and you get it by fedx 2day
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
I may do this just so I don't have to butcher my current cable. I want to build a "factory/programming cable" that allows me to flash and/or boot without a battery.
[Motorola Droid 3] leerpsp:
Yep thats what i did new is the way to go
[Motorola Droid 3] RWALEY:
The same exact type of cable is used with the Kindle.

If you don't wish to make your own. You can get them on ebay around $10. Search kindle factory cable or fastboot cable.

I have used it with the Droid 3 to flash and power without battery.

Hey there,

I just upgraded to ICS on my SGS2. Everything's nice, except the GMail app (4.28776) that comes with the new Android version. You might feel different, but for me it is using space inefficiently compared to the former version.

So can you tell me if there's a way to replace the new version with the old? I already tried to restore an old backup with Titanium backup, it works a few minutes but does not seem to be stable. After a forced reboot i am back to 4.28776 - although i am rooted.

So in worst case i will have to go back to Gingerbread :confused:

Thank you for your help.

Rgds,

I'm considering buying an Anker battery for my Sensation and found this on eBay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:GB:1123#ht_2057wt_1177

I know batteries is the last thing to buy on eBay, but its the only place I found it that ships to Denmark.

Can someone tell me how I can identify a fake one?

Thanks :)

battery

Hi, I'm using a anker battery, I would NOT buy off eBay but buy from Amazon or Anker. But the fake ones usually have a sticker under them of what they really. they will put the Anker sticker over the bad fake battery making you think its real.I actually look under the battery stickers to see if its marked otherwise. Hope this helps you! By the way, i ordered mine off Amazon and its real, so I'd use Amazon if I were you. Too many fakes come off eBay! Hope i helped and answered your questions.

I'm really careful with where I buy my batteries.

I've heard of fake batteries that exploded in the phone.

If you google it you'll find several cases of this :/
[HTC Sensation] lviseth:
I'm coming from the Galaxy phones so I am totally lost with everything HTC. I was experience before that with my EVO 4G but, now I'm just completely stuck even after reading as much threads as I can. There are many posts similar to mine, but they don't contain the fix for my phone.

I traded my Captivate for a Sensation 4G. When I arrived home I realized the Wifi was not turning on. It was on ARHD 6.6.3. I've reflashed and flashed 6.6.4, then to Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.2 on Sebastian FM #1 Kernel. WiFi is dead. I tried the LogCat and it shows something about wifi not loading. I will provided the logcat if it helps.

Heres what my bootloader shows:

-Revolutionary-

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT- 1.27.1100

RADIO-11.22.3504.07_M

OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0131

eMMC-boot

Jan 13 2012, 17:33:34

And I have ext4 clockwork 1.0.0.4 (I think)

From my research. There shouldn't be a problem with kernel mismatch since I'm S-Off with Revolutionary. The guy that traded the phone with me won't reply back to what he did with the Sensation so I'm lost.

I checked the folders /data/misc/wifi and deleted the supplicant file, still no fix. Tried WiFix...didn't work.

I'm willing to go back to complete stock froyo or how the phone came in, but I want to be able to root. Because coming from an EVO I hear that once you RUU, you can return. So I'm afraid there.

Please provided me with the necessary steps to get my phone back to stock and easily go back to root/custom rom and wifi fix...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Can you do two things to fix wifi before returning to stock..

First I want you to verify this

1.go to 4EXT and under tools check whether there is an option called "smartflash" is there or not.

2.if it is there then disable smartflash.. It's for ppl with SON.. And causing problems for ppl who has soff

Them flash the rom again and see

If you didn't have smartflash option then try these two things

1.from whatever rom you have (i believe you have virtuous inquistion) extract the boot.img from the rom's zip file (inside kernels folder) and flash this via fastboot

Steps to do it

1. Copy the boot.img to adb folder of pc

2. Put your device in fastboot and connect it to your pc (mobile reads fastboot usb)

3. Flash the boot.img via fastboot

Command

fastboot flash boot boot.img

2.Now the other part

.copy the files present in kernel/modules folder present in The rom's zip file and paste them in /system/lib/modules/ of your mobile (usw file explorer to do this)

This should/will solve your wifi problem

[HTC Sensation] Super-Android:
Before doing anything rather try this simple procedure. Install root explorer or app like that to have access to root level, den, you can find the wpa_supplicant.conf file in /data/misc/wifi/ directory on your phone. Simply cut/rename the file and put it somewhere else.

Remove it from there and move it to sdcard..

Restart de phone. Wifi should work now.
[HTC Sensation] lviseth:
Firstly, thanks for replying to my thread/help.

I see no option for smartflash in my recovery. I've done the kernel flash through ADB also. All the kernels that were included with the rom I've tried (the only one that works without bootloop is SebastianFM's). Finally, I did what you told me to do with the manual transfer of Kernel files to my mobile. Something new that happened is that the wifi toggle is toggle-able, but it will only stay "Off".

Also for the second reply, I've already done the wifi_supplicant thing. But this time I also tried it in combo with the first help.

Can you guys tell me if use RUU, will it be hard to go back to root?
[HTC Sensation] lviseth:
LogCat is showing me wifi driver failed to load.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
its best if we clean the device entirely

backup all your important stuff to sd-cadr..there are lots of backup apps ..use em

the safest way to clean the device is by RUU

first of all RUU ...cleans wipes every partition..but it still keeps you SOFF...so you can customize your device any way you want even after RUU run

i presume you are superCID (i.e. 11111111)

if you don't know that then chk it via fastboot first

command fastboot getvar cid

then if not supercid do it (you can revert back to your original cid whenever you wanted just remember your original cid or save it somewhere)

command to supercid fastboot oem writecid 11111111 (eight ones)

then get any ICS RUU from this thread..(i suggest you to get the Europe one)

from this thread

if you are XE then get along this line

"RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe"

if you are normal get one along this line "RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.5"

keep your device in fastboot and connect it to pc

then run the RUU.exe and follow the onscreen instructions

after running RUU...chk for wifi problem..if it still persists then try any GB RUU...even after that also wifi problem is there then im afraid it might be Hardware/antenna problem

if running RUU fixed your wifi problem :D

then either you can stick with it..or you can flash custom rom again and see
[HTC Sensation] lviseth:
Thanks again for the thought out reply. Many people ditch my problem after the first time. :]

I checked and I am super cid.

Okay so, I hear its bad to flash a rom that was meant for another country...

I have the T-Mobule Sensation. Does it make a difference?

Also, pertaining to the RUU-- I read around that the RUU has to be older than the phone? On the battery case, I see a date the phone was released. Should I follow suit?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
i had tmobile sensation too and i use it in INDIA...im using ARHD 6.6.3 and through wifi i watch atleast 10 videos in YouTube..so i guess wifi is not dependent on phone and all

the only problem you might(rarely face ) is signal and data bandwidth..its dependent on the region ...if you do face this signal issue pm me..i'll let you know the best solution

now regarding RUU...you are SOFF and supercid..that's all is required you can run any RUU...im saying it again ANY RUU so no worries regarding RUU run

anyways we are doing RUU run to just clean the stuff...

after running RUU (follow the steps Ive posted earlier) we'll install ARHD or any other custom rom again

get 3.32 fw from here firmware

its a PG** file so i assume you know how to update it

(this firmware flashing is to just get the revolutionary eng HBOOT as RUU run turns your HBOOT state to locked again) dont forget to remove the PG*** file from sdcard after the update is done

then

flashing recovery again

get latest 4EXT from here RECOVERY DB LINK

extract and put the recovery.img in your adb folder(pc)

then flash it via fastboot

fastboot flash recovery recover.img

then get the ARHD or whatever rom into Sdcard

go to recovery

first do a backup (safe keep)

then the important step(which solves petty issues if any like wifi error and all)

go to wipe|format and do "format all partitions except sdcard" this is powerful than superwipe...so superwipe is not required (i highly recommend this step when changing roms ...for upgrading roms this step is not required)

then flash the rom via recovery and ...enjoy :D
[HTC Sensation] lviseth:
I've decided to grab the TMOUS version (to avoid possible signal issues?). Unless you recommend the Europe version...? The download is super slow so it's going to take awhile. Meanwhile, I'm backing up apps with TiBu and will do Nandroid.

As for flashing firmware-- I'll be grabbing the PG file and putting it to the root of my Microsd. And fastboot it from bootloader..? (referencing this tut: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-flash-pg58img-zip-ics-firmware-on-htc-sensation/).
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
as for tmous...why dont we try stock gb tmous ruu then...(anyways we gonna update the firmware and flash ICS)

here is the stock tmous thread ..download it from there..its superfast

TMOUS 1.50 GB RUU

then for firmware flashing..just keep the PG58IMG file(name should be checked) on top of sdcard and boot into bootloader...the bootloader itself will identify it and will ask for update .say yes and the fw will be updated...after that you should remove the PG** file from SDcard otherwise you cant boot into bootloader (coz everytime you boot into bootloader it'll find the file and ask you whether you want to update or not..it'll be a recursive process)

then flashing recovery and rom :D (see my earlier post) :D
[HTC Sensation] lviseth:
Just got done with RUU. I'm sad to say it's not working. The wifi just flips on and off.... :[ : [ : [

Is there a froyo I can go back to? Maybe that will work?

And now the bootloader is locked.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Bootloader locked is fine.. As long as you are soff.. You can just flash unlocked firmware and then your bootloader will be revolutionary again

Just my wild guess.. Did you try checking the pins of wifi antennas? They will be on the back case

If its similar process to GB then once u have stock rom installed just usb debug on n do a system pull (pretty simple.. Codes around u.fortunately out at mo).. Then once u have the files u have to have something that can deodex the files, prob have to look online for suma then u can later place the deodex into like a cwm package n all is gold. Would really attempt this but friggin phone screwed at mo.. Hopefully if i can sort it then i can look into. Did manage to sort of deodex 2.3.6 last time round!!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] greenjeans:
I was attempting to use Matt's utility to get back to .173, and kept having problems on my mac. Switched over to windows, and still had problems with the script running (would make progress then hang), so I 'fastboot erase <partition>' several partitions (to clean up bad installs, free space). I ran the script again, and it seemed to work fine, except after the first reboot, it WILL NOT boot back up!

I've held Vol- and pwr for a good solid minute or so, same with Vol+,- and pwr. Nothing's happening...plug it into AC, no led's light up...

What can I do?! Is there any way to get it into ap fastboot mode again, so I can flash? Or did I turn my phone into an unrecoverable brick?

[Transformer TF300T General] scarmona:
Although I own a TF101, I was forced to buy a new tablet with dock in a trip to San Diego (the TF101 screen died in the ride from home to the airport, I later discovered thanks to these forums that it is a common issue and I fixed it by opening and securing some of the screen cables) and so far I'm loving it!! it feels a hell more responsive than the TF101 (even with custom ICS roms) and, judging by the comments here, the hardware has great potential.

I rooted with the Sparkyroot app and applied the tweaks mentioned in the Development Area but I still think there's room for more improvement, the tablet stutters sometimes and we're having issues with the dock properly charging the tablet. I hope the developers become interested in this device and start creating great ROMs like in the previous models. I can't wait!!!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
I didn't see a thread about this in the accessories section here, so I figured it would be a good one since many people will be getting one, despite the Gorilla Glass supposedly being a good protector as-is.

In my experience, good screen protectors will accomplish one of two things, but never both:

1) Invisibility - you don't even notice it is there, and does not mar your screen quality whatsoever (a big perk when your new phone's biggest feature may be the screen)

2) Glare-resistant - you sacrifice some of your screen's brightness and jump-off-the-phone clarity and colors, yet you do get much less glare, improved visibility outside in the sun, and it tends to have a smoother feel when swiping across the screen.

The purpose in this thread was to allow people to share recommendations for screen protectors on both fronts. I, personally, want one that won't hinder my phone's screen quality (although my OG EVO has a glare-resistant one on it right now). Any recommendations on brand, type, deals, etc?

Also, I've noticed that many of them won't be available until June or so, which is frustrating since I want to have a protector on mine as I walk out of the store next Friday. Ideas? Do I just buy the cheapest thing possible until a great one is available? Risk going without one for a couple weeks? :(

Share your thoughts and plans here! :D One week to go!

I have been using them for a while on my Nexus. I am considering switching to the evo lte or the galaxy III. I am waiting for that to compare, but the review in my signature has a tun of comments feedback etc. It's the best one on the market imo. I would get the full body on these since the back of the evo lte looks pretty weak. These don't have orange peel like others and have a lifetime warranty. The best coupon floating around is sprintxo
