[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazzyvishal:
Hello guys, I just want to know is there any way through which I can increase the sensitivity of the power button? My phone is now one year old and I've found that the power button is very annoying. If any new person happens to use my phone, he is to be taught to apply a bit more force to the power button to lock the phone.

Also, long press is difficult! It's very difficult to take screenshots (with CM ROM that has power button screen shot option).

When I long press to take a screenshot, after releasing the button, the phone sleeps and gets locked. It happens several times and to take one screenshot I have to face it almost five times. I think it is because of dust that gets collected below the plastic button, is there any suggestion from you that can make my finger's life easy??? :(:banghead::o

Uhh, and do not suggest opening the phone body and clean it!!! :p:D
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazzyvishal:
And how does a topic come under 'favourites' section of the xda premium app??? Such a stupid question but I am really not finding a way out!!! :mad:
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatnextdoorboy:
Same problem. Isn't much you can do with the power button. It's mechanical so to fix the actual button you would have to open up the phone and fiddle in there. (don't try this if you don't know what you're doing)

I, for one, am using this mod. It works on the rom level, not the phone itself so it needs to be flashed every time you install a new rom (even when it's the same one but different version) and it won't work when the phone is completely shut down, you still have to use the power button.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazzyvishal:
Oh yeah! I knew that mod but forgot! :p

Well then, for now I use a screen locking widget... but still to unlock power button is required... :(

Will have to stay with it only.. :banghead:
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krazzyvishal:
Oh, and yeah, that same widget allows to lock the phone by long pressing search button.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatnextdoorboy:
Can't you just press any other button, like menu or the back key, and slide to unlock?
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borchaniz:

[Legend General] Olafur:
Hi all

I have an Legend AT&T that I bought on Amazon last fall.

The fact that it is AT&T branded means it demands that I have an AT&T data plan in order to use WiFi tethering. This is annoying to say the least since up here in Iceland we have no AT&T. I have contacted HTC and they confirm the phone is open and onlocked. AT&T customer support tried its level best to assist me in "unlocking" the phone with out success.

Can anyone tell me how I can get out of this predicament. I also have an ASUS Transformer that I was hoping to connect to the internet with the ATH Legend.

This restriction also means that I can not get updates for the phone since it wants to connect to AT&T for all that.

Please help.

Olafur.
[Legend General] Asovse1:
WTF are you trolling or something? You're probably also one of the unluckiest people on Earth as AT&T (US) never ever released the HTC Legend. It was rumoured: http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/htc-legend-coming-to-atandt-according-to-fcc/ , but never.

I'm sorry, but can you try telling us what you did to try and resolve this issue? Most importantly, what interactions did you do with any Icelandic carrier to reproduce the problem? Posting any error massages (EDIT: messages*), or more stories about what you tried to do would definitely help.

Nevertheless, I'm going to try and dissect a problem from your post. You want to activate HTC's Wi-Fi Hotspot. You can't get any updates for the phone. Put those two issues together and you end up with Android 2.1 Eclair. I want you to confirm for me that you have that (Home > MENU > Settings > About Phone). Because if you do, and if I remember correctly, back when we had the Legend on 2.1, and were harassing violently HTC for a Froyo update, we never had Wi-Fi Hotspot functionality unless we rooted.

That's all I can gather from the information provided.

Do me a favour, check at your phone's box and tell me what model your Legend is. Is it A6366, A6363, or A6365? If it's A6366, you have an HTC Aria, not a Legend, and it's a phone NEAR-IDENTICAL to the Legend that was sold down south in the United States on AT&T.

I also have another ridiculous AT&T theory. See, Americans down there sometimes refer to AT&T as Ma Bell or whatever. Bell, (Ignoring the "Ma") could stand for Bell Canada, the carrier IN THE COUNTRY BORDERING THE UNITED STATES that actually carried the HTC Legend. Yeah, it's ridiculous, but who knows? Your Amazon dealer, I'm sceptical of his service now.

Lastly, I'd just love for you to know that whether that phone came originally from Bell in Canada, or AT&T in the States, it won't work on Iceland's 3G bands. Even if you manage to resolve this issue, you won't be able to run on 3G networks. Only the newer HTC devices (starting with Sensation, I believe) are able to run all 3G frequencies around the world (except the Canadian + American AWS bands, only the HTC Amaze can do that). So if you ever manage to get Wi-Fi Hotspot running, you may only use it on 2G EDGE or GPRS, which is painfully slow to browse the internet. You could probably ad-hoc with your Transformer or something, but that's beyond my help.

Good luck!

Love, Bryan from Canada
[Legend General] homi3kh:
absolutely trolling
[Legend General] Olafur:
Trolling

I am sorry, what do you mean by "absolutely trolling"?
[Legend General] Olafur:
HTC Inspire

Hi. For some reason my reply seems to have gotten lost. I will repeat.

In the interest of simplicity I called the phone mine, it is my wife's so I do not have it with me. You are absolutely right, this is not HTC Legend, it is HTC Inspire. The OS is version 2.2.2 (I am more or less sure) and because of no AT&T account none of the software that came with it can be updated. The phone does have the WiFi hotspot option but when I select it the phone complains that I must have AT&T data plan and leaves it at that. It does switch the WiFi off even if it can't activate the Hotspot. So, the option is there but she can't use it to connect her Transformer to the net. This is a really strange shortcoming. Why would AT&T care about what plan she has? Without the Data Plan she would just have to pay dearly. That would just be her desicion.

We have done nothing to get the phone to work. It connects to Icelandic carriers without a problem (yes, 3G as well) and without errors of any kind. I did assume the phone was locked when I turned it on for the first time and purchased an unlock code. That code I never used since there was not unlocking required.

I am not sure what you mean by "trolling".

Thanks,

Ólafur

Ok considering your situation you should root it. The process is very simple. It's a one click root.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952352

Here's a video to help: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...m6DWCA&usg=AFQjCNEDETg2nq8rDBQWfKvlh9APF40fiw

It will root, unlock, install clockwork mod recovery, and superuser.

After that flash a rom. I will say I use the Rom called "Android Revolution HD 6.3.1" and can hotspot when ever I want, even without the AT&T account.

Video for that is here: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...4dTCCA&usg=AFQjCNE6rGAT6Z8pN9omO8UshYbzAup5cQ

Hi,

You have formatted your phone.

Therefore you have no system.

So,it won't boot up.

Flash a GB ROM.

ARHD 3.6.13 is HERE

:)
[HTC Sensation] V1k70r:
Or if you want ICS and not Gingerbread:

- Flash the 3.32 firmware > http://d-h.st/afS (Put it in the root of your SD card, boot into the bootloader and press volume up.)

- Flash any ICS ROM you like. I recommend ARHD if you want a enhanced stock experience. > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1098849

gimme that detail then i will give you next steps

[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Now that you are on ICS.. You have 3.32/3.33 firmware already

And also you are htc-Dev unlocked

You can flash roms and root the current stock rom just fine without soff...

If you want custom roms.. Follow asskickars "Flashing roms with SON" present in sensation general section to the letter.. You will come out fine

If you just want root on your current stock rom.. Then use my one click root tool.. From my soff guide (skip the soff part)... Link in my signature

The only thing you can't do is flashing firmwares which is not really required unless you have reception issues
[HTC Sensation] Elforx:
CLICK ME --->>> GUIDE TO SOFF NO HTC DEV (1.2x HBOOTS)--NEW ONE CLICK ROOT this i need only for root?

you say "The only thing you can't do is flashing firmwares which is not really required unless you have reception issues" i dont need to flash firmware,flash firmwares it`s for OC... i don`t need

this is the program i need ? NEW

ONE CLICK ROOT TOOL ??

3.remove the files adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll , AdbWinUsbApi.dll

(if you dont have any adb/fastboot setup don't delete these and skip step 4 )

4.copy the rest of files to the your adb/fastboot folder

-> if you did SOFF using this guide then copy the reset of files to the temproot-sensation-windows folder which you

have downloaded during SOFF procedure

i don`t know if i have or not adb/fastboot setup

i don`t know where is adb/fastboot folder

i make unlocked with htcdev what steps i fallow?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
adb/fastboot folder is the folder which has adb.exe file. as you did HTC-DEV unlock ..you will have it either in c:\Android-SDK\tools or c:\Android-SDK\platform-tools

check it

otherwise ..skip step #3 and step #4 then assume the current extracted folder as adb/fastboot folder and do the rest of steps
[HTC Sensation] Elforx:
i check in Android-SDK\platform-tools and i find adb.exe i don`t find the folder adb. In the folder from your program i find again adb.exe. I delete adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll , AdbWinUsbApi.dll from your folder??? i don`t understand :(
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
sorry if my previous post is confusing

adb folder -> the folder which has adb.exe is called adb folder -> in your case you got that in C:\Android-SDK\platform-tools ..so the platform-riules folder is the adb/fastboot folder

now follow the rest of steps ..ie from step #4
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] linusplus:
Hi Guys,

this is my first post.

I managed to get S2E working with the latest CM9.

The key problem seems to be related with the ext4.

So, let's distinguish two cases:

1) Data wiped. In this case it should be enough to create an ext2 partition. You can refer to one of the many guides to do that. Then in recovery, just mount system and in the folder /system/etc/init.d and remove the file 90userinit. After this you can install S2E from the market or download and install it from the sdcard.

2) Already using S2E and not willing to wipe data.

Assuming you have the clockworkmod, go to recovery.

Backup your system.

Install the latest CM9 (galaxy-ics-latest).

Rename you sd-ext backup file (from sd-ext.ext4.tar to sd-ext.ext2.tar) in the folder just created inside /clockworkmod/backup, i did it mounting the usb in the usb and storage menu.

After this, you also have to open the nandroid.md5 file and do the same as prevoius point in the file. It shouldn't be required to generate a new signature.

Create an ext2 partition:

mkfs.ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Restore the backup in the recovery menus: Advanced restore, restore sd-ext.

If everything went fine, just reboots and S2E should work.

Cheers.

So I have a Xperia X10 mini pro.

I have rooted it, unlocked the bootloader and flashed the nAa kernel.

I am now stuck in a bootloop, can't use the custom CWM-recovery from nAa to mount the sdcard (can't mound /media/sdcard).

I can't enter fastboot, either by the volume up + usb method or from Fastboot Toolbox.

10/047/2012 13:47:23 - ERROR - This action can be done only if the connected phone has fastboot mode

ADB seems to work fine.

It looks like I am missing a lot of files in /system/bin and so on. Any firmware image I can flash or any other ideas?

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thegearhead:
You should try reflashing the kernel
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thegearhead:
If you have problems mounting the sdcard you should format it, don't forget to make a backup of everything in it, i just had a similar problem and this solved it
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] belgianguy:
Try reflashing with SEUS (video, youtube) "watch?v=t6QhJaCsdD4&feature=plcp" by the user Xminicyanogen, titled "Restoring an X10 Mini Pro with SEUS" or you could also use PC Companion, should restore stock rom and kernel.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
Thank you for the answers.

1. I did reflash with different kernels.

2. The SD card looks ok, I got general problems mounting anything in the FS

3. I will check out PC Companion and SEUS, thank you.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
Try to follow the instructions for Xperia X10 Mini Pro (U20, mimmi) and NOT the ones for Xperia Mini Pro ( which is a newer, and altogether different device). Fastboot is NOT supported on the U20, so there's no use in searching for it or trying to make it work. For the X10 Mini Pro we use Flashtool, and not Fastboot toolbox. And if you only flash a kernel to the phone, ofcourse you get stuck in a bootloop, you will need to install a corresponding ROM through CWM in order to make it work properly, and this does not require you to mount the sd-card at all, If you forgot to copy the ROM to it before you flashed the kernel, use mount USB-storage which will connect it to your PC through USB as a flashdrive.

I suggest Repairing using PC Companion, and then start again, by using flashtool and the proper tutorials for your phone-model.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
Yes, mounting USB storage will not work also, I receive the error: "Unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory)"
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] belgianguy:
If it's back to default stock rom and stock kernel, perhaps try MiniCM7Pro v21? That runs on the stock kernel (so no need to reflash your kernel) and has a very clear installation thread. Always threat the requirements as if they were the checklist for a rocket launch, read through them at least three or four times, don't skip anything and if something doesn't match => ABORT. A lot of this information is on your phone, in the "About the phone" section. Learning the codenames for each device might also help (Xperia X10 Mini Pro == U20 == mimmi), filenames containing other codenames should always raise a red flag. If you can't parse what the file is supposed to do, better ask before flashing.

Happy Flashing! ;)

---------- Post added at 02:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

I'd do first things first and reflash through PC Companion/SEUS. And then later see whether or not you can regain access to your sd-card.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
SEUS tells me that "Your phone already has the latest available software installed"

and PC Companion (repair function) tells me that "there is no software available for your phone"

It might be due to the wrong version of the kernel being reported? Or is there a way to trick one of the above to overwrite the current software?

Looks like I had to use a different kernel and SUES did the repair.

Thanks again all for your help!

Edit: And back to square one. Started fresh and stuck at the same problem. Unable to mount sd card or usb.

Edit2: It looks like a problem with the nAa kernel and the recovery it has. Stock CWM works ok.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] belgianguy:
What kernel are you trying to flash? I've flashed my Xperia X10 Mini Pro with the nAa-ICS-04 kernel and I'm using the MiniCM9 3.0.3 ROM.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
Redownload the kernel, and make sure you have the right one for your phone, it usually comes with a better/newer CWM-version than the one you can install on stock.

Since you are talking about fastboot in your opening post, i think you're following instructions for the Mini Pro (2011) instead of the X10 Mini Pro (2010), Find the kernel for your phone in the X10MiniPro Development section in this part of the forum.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
I am following instructions for the U20, which is correct. I am using the [KERNEL] nAa-13 [1/7/12] Custom Gingerbread kernel + CWM Recovery by nobodyAtall

What I did now:

1. Return to stock

2. Install CWM

3. Install one of the MiniCM7 (don't remember which one) rom

4. Flash nAa kernel

5. Go to recovery, wipe.

Phone boots, CM7 is working. I can't use recovery to mount usb/flash still (which would be useful for backup and/or gapps install). "Clean" CWM works fine. I agree it might be an issue with an old CWM (which is v5.0.2.8)

I will proceed to check the nAa ICS kernel + ICS ROM.

On a side not - gosh, the phone works nicely on GB. My Defy feels slower than this (probably due to the higher res). The one drawback is that I feel like a giant...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
You don't have to mount your sd-card to install gapps or do a backup, they will use the sd-card, no problem other action needed for that. Did you redownload the kernel, it may be corrupted somehow.

And yes, nAa-kernel and MiniCM is a bit of a speed-demon, I used to run it on 480Mhz maximum and it was still faster than stock rom. Don't expect that kind of performance on MiniCM9/ICS though, it's still got some problems to sort out.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
Sorry, I don't understand you.

From what level should I do it? If I try to access anything SDcard related in recovery I get kicked out with the mount error (including backup).

I guess I need to change to a different recovery while still running nAa kernel.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
CWM Recovery is built into the nAa-kernel itself, you can't change it for a different one as far as I'm aware.

You could download the kernel again, to rule out possible corruption, and if that doesn't help, find a way to do a re-format of your sd-card and see if that fixes the problems.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thegearhead:
I think i have to insist, try formating your sdcard, even if it looks ok, backup everything in your sdcard, then format it, you have nothing to lose, just try it ;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
Hi, reformatting the card did not help. Please note that the same card mounts with a different version of CWM.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] belgianguy:
Then it becomes more likely that the CWM on the newer kernel isn't able to read from the SD-card. I'd suggest the nAa-ICS-04, in combination with MiniCM9. Like SmG67 said, the ICS versions of MiniCM (MiniCM9) are still error-prone and might crash. But you could try it just to see if the ICS-kernel (and embedded CWM) does play nice with the SD-card, then perhaps we'd be able to apply Occam's Razor. ;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] irontomrackham:
I would apply this to a general incompatibility of nAa CWM and my U20.

I tried nAa-ICS-04 and had the same lack of results.

Once I get a few minutes, I will try other kernels.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gagan1991:
for fastboot mode in naa kernel first press volume up key,then press power button,then press home key.Notification lights blink with blue colour for once,then connect to pc with usb cable.And then your software show your device connected in fastboot mode.If not work in first then try it again.hope it works
