Mine has been doing that since I bought it probably around a year ago. It doesn't seem to have any ill effects on the phone's operation and it hasn't gotten any worse - at first I was cautious with it but now I don't even notice.

[Desire HD General] CodeJACK:
i think its actually the external cover that is contibuting to it.

You have to peal it up and over the corners and I wonder is it having a pulling effect on them that is casing the screen to lift.

Other with this issues use covers?

Anyway, not causing any problem just yet but the phone has a flimsy feel at the bottom half.
[Desire HD General] RootTheNoob:
Pull it up to far and the screen becomes unresponsive. So don't try to take a look underneath the phone. Contact HTC and send your screen in if it gets bad, they'll replace and or fix your phone if you have a warranty with them. Shouldn't take terribly long but be prepared to wait a couple of weeks.

[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
Hello,

I installed revolutionary on my phone and i installed vittorus ICS ROM and i want to revert back to original HTC 2.3.5 so i downloaded the RUU.exe and that didnt work so i extracted it and renamed it PG58IMG.zip and tried to install it, i got the progress bar then nothing, then i renamed it to PG32IMG.zip and it also did the same. Then i extracted the HBOOT and Android.txt from it and named it PG32IMG.zip and then it got stuck on 'Persing' or something like that.

So heres the point:

I have a HTC Incredible S thats been unlocked with HTCDev and S is ON and i have Revolutionary installed and i have the ROM (RUU) of 2.3.5 (Optus Australia) and i have no idea how to install it (Revolutionary couldn't install it).

Please help!

Thanks, Danz207
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Not sure how you managed to get revolutionary on an s-on phone... but here's a thread that might help you http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1359555

Edit: what version is your hboot?
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
I used a cmd.exe prompt whilst on Fastboot, and 2.00
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
That doesnt work, it needs me to get the rom.zip and name it PG32IMG.zip and then go into HBOOT and let it install but i get an error saying 'Invalid image or file'
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
If your hboot is 2.00, then you do not have revolutionary installed. Could you post the output of "fastboot getvar all"? Minus the imei and serial number.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
I do have HBOOT 2 AND revolutionary installed, and i have no idea what you want me todo in the second part.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Put the phone in FASTBOOT USB and then in a command window on your PC tpe that command and then post the output of that command for us to look at.

If you don't understand these instructions, I suggest you read and study before going on otherwise you cold really hose up your phone.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
C:\Users\NAME>fastboot getvar all

'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

I'm guessing thats not what you were after?

I'm not on my usual computer so i'll have to do it later maybe.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I believe you have Revolutionary confused with ClockworkMod recovery after I reread your OP.

As part of the HTCDEV unlock process you installed the Android SDK to your PC. You need to open a command window and change the working directory to that directory. That is where the Fastboot.exe is located.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
Oops :S

I guess i do have that installed. As i said i'll have to do that tomorrow or Friday. Sorry for the confusion
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Also, after I reread your OP, the problem with trying to run the RUU is that you have the bootloader unlocked, that is why the RUU fails.

You need to put the phone into FASTBOOT USB mode and then enter the command:

fastboot oem lock

Then you should be able to the RUU and get back to stock.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
Ok, so if i install Android SDK on this computer and get fastboot and that other file into another folder and point cmd at it and do that, does that mean i can just run the ruu.exe and it will revert it back to HTC firmware?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes once you relock the bootloader the RUU should run to completion and you will be back to stock.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
Ok, i did that then i got:

c:\Android>fastboot oem lock

...

(bootloader) Lock successfully...

FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))

finished. total time: 0.456s

My phone now says:

And in reply to 'Nonverbose' i typed in fastboot getvar all and got:

[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Which RUU are you going to try and run? That is the reason why nonverbose wanted you to run the Fastboot getvar all command to make sure you are trying to run the right one.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
I'm going to run: RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_Optus_AU_2.12.980.2_R_Radio_20.2803.30.085AU_3805.04.03.12_M_release_185028_signed.exe

But i can't get into my phone now. Everytime i try to turn it on it goes straight to HBOOT... Help?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
That RUU is too old to flash anyway based on your current mainver value. It will fail. You need to flash the 3.11 405.2 RUU and will probably need a goldcard to do so.

Did you make a nandroid backup from Recovery before you flashed your custom ICS ROM?
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
I made some sort of backup in Clockworkmod but i had like 30 folders on my sd card so i deleted a few and only kept a folder called 'Backup'

Which is for Astro... so uhh.. no. And i have no idea what a 'Goldcard' is, so im pretty much stuffed huh?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
You'll need to unlock the bootloader again and then install ClockworkMod and then flash a custom ROM to get going again.
[HTC Incredible S] Danz207:
I already have a rom on there now, can i just flash the boot.img to get it working?

Also after i do this is there anyway to get HTC firmware back on?

Not looking for any Nova launcher answers :P Maybe how to do it with Ninjamorph or something similar, I'm using it to customize my notification icons and the phone dialer currently, so I assume I could use it for this? Please be detailed if possible, like what .apk these functions would be found in, what folder to find said .apk, etc. Thanks so much in advance guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartholomey:
If you want to remove Skype, just go in Settings, Apps, Uninstall the app.

If you just want to remove the pop up that shows up everytime you want to give a phonecall, hit "Phone" and make sure thé option is on "Always" (Not on "Just Once").

This kind of pop ups show up everytime you have a choice between to Apps for doing something. It'll appear for exemple when you have multiple launchers and you didn't set the default one yet.

Hope that helped you ! If it did, just hit the Thanks button :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aussiesausage:
Hey guys.

My galaxy note will be arriving tomorrow. And just been reading the sticky about peoples devices becoming un-usable after flashing certain ICS roms.

Want to know what advice on ROMS people have got to give me as I want to flash a custom rom before I start using it.

Throw anything at me, what to stay away from and what not.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SpyderTracks:
Welcome to the note, I'm sure you'll be overwhelmed as I was for the first 3 or so days, and that doesn't really seem to wear off too much :D

We've got a great amount of development and support going on for this device. If you're interested in ics straight off, check out the following thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1659768. That shows you the safe builds vs the current affected ICS kernels that could brick you. Personally, CM9 and paranoid Android are the most enticing, although both in early stages.

Also, check out Dr. Ketans guide to ROM installation and rooting, it's a sticky in the ROM development section and has everything you need to get rooted and cwm installation which you will need on your out of the box gingerbread before you can flash custom roms and kernels.

There's loads on here, and everybody has their own preferences, so hunt around. I hope you get as much joy, and fear, as I do :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] omersak:
Welcome! Just stay away from anything and everything related to ICS except the official CM9 nightlies. basically its the only safe way to get ICS on the phone (at the cost of S-memo etc. of course).

Thats about it, really. you might feel too big at first but give it 5 days and everything else will just seem too small. dat screen.

[General Questions and Answers] yota73:
Hi to everyone,

I would like to reply to this post about a force close entering the UsbSettings in broodRom RC5 rev 1 & 2(prerelease).

Specifically the exception is this: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.android.settings/com.android.settings.UsbSettings}: java.lang.NumberFormatException: unable to parse '' as integer

Unfortunately I'm not able to post there since I've just registered my accout; I hope this is the best section to post and that someone will notice it anyway.

After a couple of hours of serious digging I found that the problem depends on the fact that build prop lacks:

persist.service.usb.setting=0

which sets the default mode (kies) for usb.

that value is requested by com.android.settings.UsbSettings.onCreate of Settings.apk

protected void onCreate(Bundle paramBundle)
{
super.onCreate(paramBundle);
int i = Integer.parseInt(SystemProperties.get("persist.service.usb.setting"));
this.mUSB_mode = i;
---cut---

restoring the above line in build prop fixes the issue! :)
[General Questions and Answers] broodplank1337:
Thanks! :), I saw it before but didn't knew if this was the right fix^^
[General Questions and Answers] saturns:
thanks for the solution..im sorry but im newbie but where to locate that in the script manager?im still learning about this android..thanks
[General Questions and Answers] yota73:
The file is /system/build.prop, you need to be root to edit it and to mount /system read write.

Both things are enabled by default in broodrom, and any detail can be easily found by searching the forum.

Please note that this has nothing to do with scriptmanager and is best achieved though ADB.

If you have not the android SDK installed, maybe it would be better if you just wait Rev 2, which hopefully will integrate the fix
[General Questions and Answers] yota73:
Colors fixes

Hi brood,

still posting here until I (if ever) reach 10 posts.

I've managed to fix color-issue (at least for most colors) in your rom by editing the twframework-res.apk.

It seems that samsung apps are using it instead of framework-res.apk.

The quickest way to improve the situation is modify .xmls that are using tw_color002 to use tw_color001 instead.

As you can see in /res/values/colors.xml tw_color002 is black while tw_color001 is white.

Obviously there is not one unique solution, but is more a matter of choosing the right palette to fit with the dark theme, either by changing color reference in each xml or by changing them all at once in /res/values/colors.xml

I hope this can help!

I've used a few different roms and I must admit I prefer Prime but as with anything and as lucastan96 says the only real way to find out is to download both and see which you prefer.
[XPERIA X8 General] AvantisARG:
Each rom is developed for different purposes, you should try both and see which best fits you.
[XPERIA X8 General] ziemny:
Now that's kinda disrespectful my friend. I'm sure current GDX Devs are doing their best to improve their ROM, so please, appreciate their work and respect them. Besides, I find your opinion about GingerDX very subjective. I didn't really experience many lags nor battery drain in this ROM.

Hey guys,

Alright so, I flashed RocketROM ICS v1 perfertly fine from a GB rom on my Galaxy Note N7000 the other day but I decided I wanted to try out a new modem for the phone. LA4 I think it was.

Flashed that fine and made nandroid backups beforehand just in case. Now I didn't like it all that much, signal was abit choppy etc etc so I decided to restore back to my old backup I made before.

However, during that restore process, my phone just kept restarting itself in the middle of the store, whilst it was restoring the system folder. So I was like ???, and the phone wouldn't start up again, so I kept trying to restore but no luck. The restarts only happened during restores. (and from what I know now, when I'm trying to flash something big (like a new ROM) via CMW)

So I thought, I'll just flash stock LPY ICS rom using Odin and start over again. But during the flashing, it gets stuck at "NAND write start" at about 80% repeatedly. Obviously by now the phone won't start so...

I was just wondering my options here?

(I still have download mode and recovery to use, however I'm all out of ideas :( )

All,

As we know, the big M generally supports '1 (big) software update' when it comes to Android.

They have not yet launched ICs in europe officially, because the MAXX is yet to be released fully.

If Microsoft has managed to get a ban on the import of M products, do you think this will have a knock on effect on them releasing ICS?

They don't lead nowhere.

They lead to more money in the huge corporations' pockets.

And in their lawyers'.

I know of a company near here that has sued a number of companies for using a bootloader, claiming that any company that uses a bootloader is infringing on their intellectual property rights.

After years of delays and hundreds of thousands of dollars in the pockets of the lawyers on both sides, the company agrees to a settlement to the tune of a few hundred thousand, plus their legal fees of course, and moves on to its next lawsuit.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sRDennyCrane:
Populist corporation-bashing aside, these suits are something we're going to have to get used to. The smart phone market is highly competitive and every manufacturer is looking at every patent they control to see if a competitor might be infringing. Apple and Samsung are the worst offenders, although they're now in settlement talks. Entire companies are bought and sold not because of any market value, but for the patents they own.

All we can really hope for are some judges to throw out frivolous nonsense like "patent for device vaguely rectangular in shape that requires fingers to operate" and deal with legitimate cases such as Google V. Oracle.

But, will this effect the ICS rollout? Doubt it. They'll likely not admit it if it is the case, anyway. But regardless, Microsoft won a judgment. There is no ban in effect, yet. It is highly improbable that there will be one. Right now, the case is under a 60 day "presidential review" period where Obama could personally overturn the ruling. What is key is Motorola must now put $0.33 in a fund for every Android handset it sells. If upheld, this will go to MS. Now, Motorola must either remove the offending code, or pay a license fee to Microsoft. Either way, don't expect huge bonded customs warehouses with stacks of Razrs.
