there is a chance that the problem was the radio???

i dont check the radio. any way to flash tne 2.15 radio without the 3 color screen???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lqtdc:
sorry but i dont have a android to flash without recovery
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shanman-2:
No.

Have you got the hd2 Nand toolkit?

What s the set up on the phone?

Spl etc
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lqtdc:
i have the 2.08 SPL or HSPL i dont remenber but i can put the magldr 1.11 with the romutility from windows but now i cant put in bootloader screen to put the magldr 1.13. i dont check the value of the radio.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shanman-2:
Just in case ..are you holding volume down button and pressing and releasing power button while still holding volume button?

It really looks like there is a prob with the volume. As was said already it can be fixed

A cracked volume ribbon cable is not uncommon! !
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lqtdc:
the button is not the problem. when the magldr 1.11 loads the button works ok.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shanman-2:
Magldr does not change the radio!

What exactly did you so?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lqtdc:
i dont check the radio when install the magldr 1.11.

first i install the 2.08 HSPL, then with the ROMUpdateUtility install MAGLDR 1.11.

i never can put the phone in bootloader mode, that is my problem. i dont know what is the radio
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] djghost_:
i would suggest making a clear install using the task29 or WM1.66 instal ect.

you have to hold the vol down button while loading

I hav had a problem with magldr1.13 which was caused by the radio - it didnt want to install on the 2.15.50.14 radio and i have had to downgrade my radio, install magldr1.13 and the update the radio to the 2.50.15.14.

but still consider a fresh install of all things to eliminate some stuff staying in the nand memory after such things ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lqtdc:
my problem is i cant put the phone in bootloader mode (Vol Down + Power).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] powerofthink:
Man, download original Windows 6.5 ROM with Radio.

And run it. it doesn't need push any button. it sends you to 3-colored screen and installs win 6.5 ROM.

Later you can try magldr again or try your volume or power button.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hengsheng120:
I don't think auto loading to bootloader works in magldr.

If your volume button works then try to install an WP7 or android rom through dft. Why do you need to go into bootloader at the moment?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] utrecht56:
You seem stuck and may have a bricked phone, try this

Seems you are stuck, maybe you want to try this:

1. Try to start your phone by holding Volume Down and then press the power button. Keep pressing the Volume down. You should you see the four-color (red, green, blue, white) bootloader screen

2. Check that it says 2.08.HSPL (if not, you should start by flashing the correct HSPL by connecting phone by USB and using HSLP4.exe (run as Administrator in Windows)

3. If you have the correct HSPL check that you have 2.15.50.14 Radio ROM installed. If not, you cannot proceed. (Tip: check every file you wodnload if has been correcty received)

4. If all the above things are correct you can flash MAGLDR 1.3) Still using Voluime Down and powes and the four-color (red, green, blue, white) bootloader screen

5. Now you can boot the phone by pressing and holiding down power. MAGLDR will boot, choos 5 USB Flash and flash your favourite version of Clockworkmod (250 Mb version recommended)

Now you are ready to use MAGLDR and/or Clockworkmod any way you want.

If you skip/downgrade and of use DAF update after 5, your phone will be confused as hell. In that case do a TASK29 and start again from step 1.

Alternatively get a copy of HD2-Tool and do all above steps with that. Its really good.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] garyr2548:
Anyone having a buzzing sound in their earpiece? Sounds like the little metallic screen is buzzing away when someone is speaking and the louder the volume as they talk the louder the vibrating noise is. Just wondering is anyone else has the issue.

EDIT:

Just checked again with a phone call and by applying pressure to the area of the earpiece speaker makes the buzzing go away. Now the wife is pissed because this is her mother's day present to shut her up from complaining about her OG Evo..... damn the luck, lots of complaining ahead now.... hahahaha.... oh well....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mlin:
Not I. I just had one of the clearest sounding phone calls I've ever had on a cell phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] garyr2548:
I do agree though, when I apply pressure it does have a nice sounding call quality. Makes me want to give up my SE4GT.... what a killer screen!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] inspectorgadget8:
I have made quite a few calls with mine already and they have been clear as can be, I am completely impressed. Is it like that on every call or intermittently? Perhaps if it was just one call, maybe it was the other persons phone and not yours.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] garyr2548:
Unfortunately each call we tested has been this way. She said it happened all day when she tried it as well. :confused: hmmmmm.....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Westfire:
Got my replacement phone today and of course it has a phone speaker that constantly buzzes regardless of volume. Go figure, I can't win with this phone! :)

Going to take it into a Sprint store tomorrow to see if they can repair it otherwise I am going to demand a new phone since I know they will have them in stock with the Saturday launch.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
You can, but with my ROM, you won't need to ;). It's already included.

But one thing to note is that a2sd won't work on any ROM - the boot.img needs to be modified for it to work.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] Jessical:
So, I really like the style of the Lightweight MicroShell Folio Cover by Marware. I bought one when the Kindle original came out. However, I don't like the material as it gets dirty pretty easily. So I decided yesterday, with one of my Moleskine notebooks I wasn't using, to chunk out the pages (and save them for later because I'm a tree hugger) and use it as a cover/case combo for my Kindle. Only leaving the first page with my owner details, a blank page for notes, and the pocket in the back for whatever.

My Bamboo stylus fits nice and snug on the side too. :D

The Kindle inside the notebook which I patched up with tape.

And the side view of the Kindle in the case.

Of course you can't actually use it while it's IN there, but it's good for carrying purposes and people don't assume it's a tablet when they see it laying around.

Oh, and you can prop it up to watch video. But only on some surfaces. :p.

I have just got my Sii which updated via kies to ICS.

I've checked out the articles on rooting but some of the directions are convoluted and most refer to earlier versions of android rather than ICS. My phone is on the T-mobile network.

[Xperia Play General] mulllen666:
I understand that many of you are feeling betrayed as you were looking forward to the ICS update for the PLAY as was I, but if we look at it in the cold light of day it really isn't such a bad thing that we will not be getting it.

We have to get out of the mentality that newer is better it rarely is. If SONY can't vouch for the stability of the device with ICS they will not release it. Simple as that. As an ex ZTE blade owner I always felt priveliged at the amazing work the devs put to turn my device from a heap of crap to a decent phone. My play is still a decent phone and is unique amongst all the millions of android devices available. It has a physical game controller.

Yes SONY broke their promise, yes it sucks but as a community it is our responsibility to continue to support and develop the device, otherwise buy something else.

As far as I'm concerned we need to chill out, stop complaining and get on with it. SONY need to release their sources to attempt to keep customers onboard, and I will continue to enjoy my phone until the next one comes along.

It's only a phone;)
[Xperia Play General] CTU_Loscombe:
I'm gonna post what I posted in an earlier thread about this issue. Hopefully it will make people see sense before any anger ensues:

There is no point, at all, in getting angry about this. They rolled out the beta as a way for the community to test and give feedback on what works and what doesnt. It did what a beta is designed to do. Unfortunately for Sony, the gamepad on the Play came back and kicked them right where it hurts. Id rather have a gaming device that works than one that doesnt.

To put it simply: All PS3/Xbox/PC users. Imagine if Sony or Microsoft rolled out a new OS that looked nice BUT......Controllers/Keyboard and Mouse support didnt work. Sure, you have a nice looking OS but the chief reason for buying the machine is gone.

People in here need to calm the hell down. Its not, I repeat, NOT...Sonys fault
[Xperia Play General] supernoodles2011:
I pretty much refuse to chill out until they give the Dev's here the latest rom they were working on...

i didnt pay £500 for my phone to get stiffed on an update "because of hardware issues"

i refuse to go and buy a new phone just to get ICS seeing as this cost me what it did not less than a month or two ago when the shop said to me SONY are able to give you ICS

also...

[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
I absolutely agree with you. Gingerbread runs perfectly on the Xperia Play. Why switch to ICS ? it's just gonna slow things down !
[Xperia Play General] CTU_Loscombe:
Hate to burst your "I deserve everything Im promised" bubble but hardware issues is an extremely legitimate reason not to get the update. Id rather my Play still worked than having features removed from it. Particularly the gamepad support for games Ive purchased

99% of the people that bought a Play bought it for the gamepad and/or gpu.. If you bought it JUST for the possibility of getting ICS, well....... :cool:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] artemis65:
I don t know if this question has come up before as I'm a new poster.

I have an Nook tablet 8gb that I rooted via the the NT 8 or 16GB root image I found at Tablet Roms.I also have CWM installed from Indirects recovery flasher apk.

I can run the sd version of CM7 with no problems,but when I install the internal version which is the Team-B CM7-Alpha final version through CWM,do a factory wipe/reset and clean the Devlik cache and partition,when I reboot from CWM,I get the Team-B splash screen and no further.It hangs there and the image jumps around a little with some violet artifacts at the top of the screen.

I have reverted to a stock rooted version1.42 with the Gapps loaded with no issues. I have tried to flash this 3 times with the same outcome.Im using the B&N stock version now right now.

Any help would be appreciated.

you may want to check out these two threads before you try flashing anything to your device. The site is getting a little daunting as far as amount of info out there, but try reading all of the stickies on the different forums.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dornstar:
It would simplify things if the devs would simply put 8GB or 16GB or 8/16GB so that people knew which worked for which. It would take literally 2 extra seconds and save a whole lot of trouble.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] miniblue:
A lot of those threads started before the 8 Gibbs NT. Since it is out you Development do tell what works on the 8 gb NT.

Please read do a little reading before jumping in with both feet.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dornstar:
So you're saying rather than simply asking the original poster to update a thread (only 3-4 active ROMs right now), its more prudent to have to have the end users read multiple threads which MIGHT have info about whether a build is compatible or to scour threads 100 pages deep?

I don't get it at all.

The HTC HD2 had a similar problem with ROMs for multiple Windows Phone versions plus Android development. After the confusion between Android and WP ROMs started bricking phones, they simply relabeled the threads and required future ROM threads to clearly state in the OP what could use it. Eventually, they make separate boards for WP6.5, WP7 and Android. It was a good move and development has exploded on the device.

Instead of this...

Mirrors:

Internal version - Nook-Tablet-CM7-Alpha-Final-TEAM-B-signed.zip - 103.3 Mb

Tell devs to label it like this....

Mirrors:

Internal version (16GB only) - Nook-Tablet-CM7-Alpha-Final-TEAM-B-signed.zip - 103.3 Mb

It really is THAT easy and being a little more prudent now is going to save a lot of devices in the future as more development occurs for each device.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
You don't tell devs to do a goddamn thing. You flash theses roms at your own risk. These devs work for free and I'm willing to bet someone such as yourself hasn't donated a dime to any of them, rather you seem to be of the opinion that you are entitled to a certain level of custom service that you are not getting.

So please, stop posting and leave.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] raywaldo:
cool it dude!

I see that you offer a lot of good advice on these forums. You are a valued member here. Be careful that you do not destroy your reputation with flames on other valued members.

Although you are correct about the devs working for free, I believe that you are out of place making assumptions about whether someone has (or has not) made donations. I also believe that you are out of line telling someone to stop posting and leave. I don't see "moderator" in your name panel (on the left). BTW, I don't see one or more "stars" there either - check and you will see one under my name. Do you even know what the star means? :cool:

Everyone of us is "unlearned" until we ask questions. Questions lead to comments. Comments invite discussion. Discussion expands knowledge and improves processes. That is what the other poster was suggesting - to improve a process.

All of us with 8GB Nooks face the same issues of not being able to differentiate between what works on 16GB and what will also work on our device. It would be a very simple thing for EVERYONE - not just devs - to start listing their device inside each post.

Soooo... cool it. Calm down, take a deep breath & smell the roses! :) Just like the government, "We are here to help" :rolleyes:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
I don't need a star under my name to know when someone is showing an entitled attitude that does not belong here and to thus voice my opinion about it.

And there's no need to tell me to calm down. I'm perfectly calm. I just have zero tolerance for people who think xda exists as an arena for people to instruct developers as to what to do. I agree that model specification would be useful now that we have two. But the syntax that was used was "tell the devs to do." Thats simply not welcome here.

Your tone is extremely condescending right here, but you know that already, don't you?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] raywaldo:
That was not my intention. I am sorry that my post came off that way. My post was an attempt to cool the flames - not spread them. Please consider how "condescending" (other terms might also apply) your post must have been to the other poster.

Here is the deal. I was rooted before .621 when .621 hit I let it update me and used it for quite awhile. Now I'm getting the urge to go to a custom ROM. I followed the steps to get back to SBF .604, it's running great and my radio is AOK.

But for the life of me I can't get root back now. I've tried Pete's way on my Linux box and I get errors. I've checked my phone to see what's going on and when I adb I'm getting $ instead of #.

I've even tried z4 just to see if it would work, it can't do it either.

What is doing to be my best way of getting root back? I looked in my bin and sbin and I don't see su in there.

[HTC One S] hah2110:
What do I need to do to have the pattern lock be the only lock screen I have? I removed the sense lock screen but that puts the ics lock screen first and then the pattern unlock which is a complete waste of time.
[HTC One S] adamentity:
Sense lock and pattern

Unfortunately I don't see a way to disable the HTC Sense lock since it it the only thing that protects the phones from input. You will have to unlock Sense before you can use whatever security settings you have applied.

The only thing I could see as a possiblity is removing the HTC Sense software but then what is the point of having the HTC One S? Most likely a custom ROM will be the only way to get the results you are looking for. :confused:
[HTC One S] hah2110:
It is very easy to remove the sense lock screen. As I indicated, I already did that. Now the ics lockscreen comes before the pattern which makes no sense (pun not intended)
[HTC One S] ezcape68:
I know this might sound like a pain, but using the facial recognition will also work, if the recognition doesnt recognize it goes to a pattern unlock.
[HTC One S] kuroneko007:
You still need to unlock using the sense unlock or the ics unlock first.

OP, I'm not really sure how this is supposed to work, and I've never seen this behaviour on any ROM, ICS or Gingerbread. The problem is, how is the phone supposed to know that you want to unlock if there is no lock screen?

Let's say the phone is sleeping and the screen is off. No way to unlock right now. So then I press the power button to wake the phone. That doesn't necessarily mean I want to unlock it. Maybe I want to check the time, or see if I have any notifications. There needs to be a further action to tell the phone I want to unlock, which is the purpose of the lockscreen.

The pattern lock is not designed to BE a lockscreen, it is designed to prevent people unlocking your phone who are not authorised to do so.
[HTC One S] hah2110:
I completely disagree. If you press the power button, you want to use your phone. If you want to check the time, do that in the status bar or the fact that it displays on the pattern screen regardless. There is no point in having an action to tell the phone I want to unlock it.
[HTC One S] Habarug:
+1
[HTC One S] kuroneko007:
You can disagree, but that's not the way that Android works, and it never has been. It's also not the way iPhone works, for that matter.
[HTC One S] Habarug:
The fact that it has been this way "forever", isn't an argument for keeping it this way. What if we had to press the power button 20 times to wake it up? Would you like to keep it that way because it had always been that way? No, you would've said it was useless.

I want to use some sort of security, but I don't because the way it is now it just takes too much time.
[HTC One S] kuroneko007:
If anyone made a lockscreen that way, that UI designer would probably get fired pretty quickly.

The fact is that the trend is going in completely the opposite direction of what you want; the trend as you can see from HTC's lockscreen and also the ICS lockscreen is to display more information on the lockscreen without having to unlock the phone (time, weather, notifications, music etc). That decision is the result of customer feedback and market research.

So the way the phone designers are looking at it is (in the case of using a pattern lock or face lock):

Step 1) Information screen (lock screen)

Step 2) Security screen

I think the closest to get to what you want to do is install something like volume wake + volume unlock, so you can press the key twice in quick succession to wake the phone and skip the first lock screen, and go to your pattern as fast as possible. There is no way that I know of to completely get rid of the lock screen totally.

It takes about 1/2 a second to swipe the ring to get to your pattern lock, so I think "it takes too much time" is a bit of an exaggeration.
[HTC One S] dscel:
That's not true, the lock screen as he described it is exactly how my nexus one worked in Android 2.1-3. It is far simpler and provides all the information needed to either power off the screen or continue to unlock, in one step.
[HTC One S] Navik57:
I have always used a hidden lock screen with gesture unlock. So when I hit my power button, I see some basic information. No indication it is a security or lock screen, until I enter my special gesture to unlock the phone.

I agree with the OP, there needs to be more options. Can't wait for CM 9...
[HTC One S] dipeshb:
Android has NOT always been this way, CM7 definitely had this behaviour. Ie no pattern unlock = ICS lock screen. If you have a pattern lock, the ICS screen does not get used.

So + 1 for the op on this, I really can't stand having to unlock twice to use my phone, but I still want the security of the pattern unlock or the number lock or the face unlock.... Pleeeease!
