1. My phone(HTC inspire 4G) reboot very often. so I deside to flash RUU to have a test.I used the follow RUU down from htc.com/us

It's very strange, I suppose it should be "S-ON" but it's still be "ship s-off"

2. then I tried to use aahk to unlock it but failed.

I used a lower version RUU,but this one is not download from htc offical site directly. then I can unlock my phone using aahk.

3. On this version I can use aahk to unlock it.

4.after that I flashed some roms.

I'm not sure the vibration begin from the unlocking or flashing.

I tried to using the RUU and Roms which haven't the vibration issue to flash my phone again. but can not solve the vibration problem.

I guess this issue caused by some softeware version not match. Is there some way I can clear my phone completly?

How can I check the exactly version of my hardware and to find the right version of hboot,radio and so on?

Thanks a lot!
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
ok, I guess the RUU you flashed is the froyo one. Was your Inspire shipped with Gingerbread? And why on earth are you willing to run the Hack Kit if you are already S-OFF??
[Desire HD General] frank_test:
When I got my inspre 4g, it's already been unlocked and install Gingerbread. but reboot frenquently.

I use hack kit because it was locked after flashed some rom by myself. so I have to unlock it again.

Do you mean hack kit is for modify S-ON to S-OFF?

I supposed RUU can overwrite every thing on my phone. I could unlock and flash rom from very begining. but after I installed the RUU, my phone is still ship s-off.
[Desire HD General] frank_test:
Could you please suggest which program is running when I start recovery?

My phone don't vibrate when it's in fastboot model but in recovery. Is this helpful to locate the root cause of this issue? Thanks a lot!
[Desire HD General] frank_test:
vibrate issue is solved by

1. fastboot oem lock.

2. flash the RUU again.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jtmireles:
So i flashed this rom on one of my friends phones and it was great. I played with it for a few minutes and shut it down. The very next day i gave it back to my friend. When he plugged it in to charge it, he kept getting a battery low/needs to be charged msg. We chocked it up to being a faulty charging chord but we changed it and it still hasnt been able to charge. The phone is dead now and wont charge or turn on. Anyone experienced this? Ive searched the development thread and nothing came up. Any help would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sylikc:
port problem?

jtmireles, I'm also running the JMT v7 build and I haven't seen anything of that behavior. I've read all around of people flashing and have never seen that.

I'd say if you've already swapped out your cable and still having issues, check your port.

* Did you plug the phone using the USB port into a computer?

* If you did, did the computer recognize it?

* Can you mount USB storage to your computer?

* If you can do all of the above... is it charging?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jtmireles:
Thanks for the quick reply. Im getting the phone back from him tmrw and will check it out. Everything was working fine, thats what bothers me. Im wondering if its just a faulty battery. Either way, im going to trouble shoot it tmrw. Just wanted to research if this was a common problem.

Dies anyone know what the "Optimum Brightness" setting in the browser means? Go to browser press menu button, press brightness and check box that reads "Optimum brightness"

Made possible by my sexy LG Optimus 4X HD (P880)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Insomniac535:
Old post, but I'd been wondering about this too.

This is the behaviour on my 4x HD with V10h firmware:

System brightness set to 40%, with auto brightness on. In the settings bar, brightness shows 'A' for 'Auto'.

Open browser. Brightness now shows '40', and can only be toggled between min, medium, max and '40' by pressing the button in the notification bar. Auto-Brightness does not work.

Go settings and brightness, and click 'Optimum'. The browser dims, but still shows '40' in the notification bar and does NOT auto-adjust.

This feature is stupid!
[Droid 2 General] cjkurow:
Hello,

I want to know if anybody knows a way to install custom roms on a rooted Droid 2 (2.3.4) with the latest bootloader. I've been trying, but I'm facing an annoying little problem. In order to root my Droid 2 with the latest bootloader, I needed to used the patched 2.3.4 firmware. Whenever I try to install a custom rom through CWM, I get an error telling me that the installation has failed. It says right before the error that I need to make sure I have the OTA update and not the leaked version. I can't get the OTA though because I'll be unable to root that one.

So, does anyone know a work around for installing a custom rom on a non OTA firmware? Any tips, suggestion, apps, links....just anything would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

CJKurow

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
Ever since my vacation, my battery life has been going up and down. When I am on a GB ROM, my screen takes up about 32-36% of the battery with the brightness on low. Every time I flash an ICS or JB ROM, the screen usage jumps to 45-52% even after the battery has settled. Is this normal? Can everyone post their normal screen drainage when they are on ICS or JB? Thank you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
i would guess that since you're on ICS and JB you're just using it more because it is prettier and slicker hence the more screen usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
When I think about it, that seems to explain the I situation. I had screenshots of battery life from GB and out of 1 day and 12 hours, I had 3 hours of screen time with 37% while I had 4 hours of screen time 50% with JB but 17 hours of life.

Taking a picture while recording works fine if I let the camera save to my internal memory. However, if I choose the external card, it will act like it's taking the pic while recording, but it doesn't save the pic. It saves the pic, but not the video. Again, it all works fine if I save to internal memory. Is this problem my SD card or the phone? I've noticed this problem on stock and two other custom roms. Thanks for any help.

[Android General] sinisin:
Am I the only person that is terribly unsatisfied with ICS and JB? I was so excited for them for so long only to be severely disappointed. They aren't as smooth, or as functional as GB. My mother owns a Nexus S and was thrilled with it when she first got it running 2.3.7 out of the box. Since then it's updated and all she does is complain about how terrible it is running 4.0.1. I thank god everyday Im not stuck with it like she is. I almost have her talked into letting me root and flash it back to 2.3.7. My distaste for these OSs is so bad I refuse to buy anything I cannot get GB on. I surely cant be the only one who cant stand the taste of either. Shame on you Google! Shame!

What are your thoughts? Love them? Hate them? On the fence?

[Android General] zealred:
i dont like 4.x,2.3.7 is better
[Android General] rmkilc:
ICS and JB are so much better than Gingerbread. The difference is like going from Windows 98 to Windows 7. Everything is so much smoother and more polished. And it doesn't look old.
[Android General] MikeyMike01:
3.x and earlier is unusably bad. At least 4.x is tolerable.

Jelly Bean and it's false promises of a smooth UI were pretty disappointing though.
[Android General] sashank:
My HTC Desire HD runs smooth as hell on both ICS and JB, and the ROMs are not even complete yet.

Do a factory reset on the Nexus S and set it up from scratch. A fresh start makes a huge difference.

[Android General] KidCarter93:
I haven't tried out JB yet, even though I could easily flash CM10 onto my S2. I haven't had a single problem or complaint against ICS though.

I think that's mainly because when I first got my Xperia S, it was originally on GB and I had nothing but problems with it. This tainted my view on GB, which before that happened I used to love it.

Just waiting to officially get JB on both of my devices though.

Velcro. What a rip off!

[Android General] rmkilc:
I'm starting to think the OP is just joking around with us.
[Android General] djluis48:
Im amazed at how can people think that GB is better than ICS/JB. My phone on ICS, runs like two to three times smoother than when on GB. On JB, it runs/feels around 4 to 6 times faster and smother. Everything is so dam great on JB. And we don't even have official ICS/JB libs and kernel. Seriously. Android 4.1 is the best version of Android so far. Period.
[Android General] sinisin:
Im not joking. I ran ICS for a week and JB for 5 days. I was ecstatic to return to GB. It's like ICS/JB say heres your phone, but how we want it. I really dont like much at all about the newest OSs. If I wanted a phone to be like every other phone Id get an iPharce. And what I really dont get the most are some of the staple features from GB not being included in the new OSs. GB is easy to use and is packed with usable features. ICS/JB is dopey, UGLY, and not nearly as user friendly. This of course is just my opinion. As unsatisfied as I am with them, I am still an Android guy and always will be. It'll be a cold day in hell before I get an iAnything.
[Android General] jRi0T68:
What phone, which ROMs?

AOKP ICS is amazing for me on my T989. Much better than any GB ROM I've used on any phone.
[Android General] RoadHazard:
What "staple features" of GB are missing from JB? I honestly can't think of a single one. And ICS/JB being uglier and less user friendly than GB? I can't believe anyone could seriously think that's true. ICS and JB (especially the latter) look far more modern, polished and cohesive, and run so much smoother. ICS was the first Android version with a really good design in my eyes, and JB made it even better.

So, no, I honestly have no idea what you're talking about.
[Android General] sashank:
Just to know, missing features like what? And how is ICS/JB less customizable than GB?
[Android General] rmkilc:
I get the feeling you haven't really used a stable build of ICS or JB. It makes no sense how you could draw those conclusions. What features are missing in ICS that were in GB? There are many many more APIs in ICS and JB, and it is much more capable. How does GB not look like it's from the stone ages in comparison to you?
[Android General] Gorjess:
Because overall it's lighter than ICS/JB..

Gingerbread is more like Windows XP, not the best looking, but it's everywhere.. i still see alot of computers running XP because it uses less resources.. same goes to gingerbread..

Not everybody needs the latest.. if it's good for them then why change it?
[Android General] RoadHazard:
Well, is XP actually better than 7 just because it can run on older hardware? No, and the same goes for Android. As smartphones get more and more powerful, Android should and will evolve to take advantage of that. At some point older devices just aren't gonna be able to run the latest version smoothly anymore, and that's something we should all be happy about if we want to see Android keep getting better and better. Right now JB is very smooth on a Galaxy Nexus, but the day will come when it can't keep up anymore either.
[Android General] LittleDoggy:
Are you the only one who hates ICS/JB? Probably.

I found GB on my phone slow, clunky and ugly in comparison to CM9/ICS which is smoother, fast and beautiful even with the bugs I love it so much much more than GB and I don't even miss GB at all and i'm happy I have ICS for my phone. No one is forcing anyone to update their phone to the latest firmware cause its their choice in the first place but the choice is there and it is a good idea to update just because its usually better.

On my LWW when i upgraded from 2.3 to 4.0.4 i didn't noticed a performance upgrade, on the contrary i have the feeling that my cache was filling faster and after a few days of use my phone was getting slower and slower and also i had random annoying phone restarts during a phone call or during idling that i had never experienced before with GB. I tried a few cache cleaning and app killing programs so i can speed up my phone but didn't helped. I haven't experienced JB since my phone has no official upgrade for it so i have no opinion.

But in general my problems solved when i rooted and flashed my phone with custom ISC rom and custom kernel.
[Android General] Charleslunn:
hmm.

I like all three, I also like eclair (not froyo, the launcher's better in eclair).

the thing that bugs me with GB is the grey borders at the top of an app e.g settings, and the orange clicking highlights. i do like green on black though. so i use JB
[Android General] Andrex1:
I too don't see a reason why people always want the latest version of android.

Ok,i admit,ICS/JB has more features and is faster but the icons looks so ugly.
[Android General] chaki-:
I can't see how GB is/was etc faster. On my SXL with GB i had 100 Ram free. On ICS i have at least 190-200 Ram free. I don't even wanna start on smoothness.

If you don't like the icons you can flash another Rom or whatever makes you happy. Even if you don't wanna bother flashing there is a app called Desktop Vizualizer. With such apps you can make it look like anything you want.

I start to think that some of you here are just trollinnnnnnn with us :D
[Android General] Andrex1:
Yea but Desktop Visualizer only replaces homescreen icons,so these ugly icons will remain in the app drawer xD
[Android General] LittleDoggy:
Because its better and faster etc normally the newer version of anything is much better than the older one.
[Android General] chaki-:
Then you got to root and flash Roms till you like one.

At the end that is the idea of Android ( highly customizable OS ).

It is true that Os upgrades are an improvemente of the old ones. but not necessarily will be an improvemente on the phone. I have an xperia active, i'm running a custom ics miui rom, and as far as iu love it the stress on the hw is far higher than GB based ones. Like someone posted earlier, it's like passing from windows 97 to windows 7...Ok i'm fine with that, but how will windows 7 run on a pentiumII233hz processor with 512mb of ddr2 ram compared to 2.3 quadcore with 4gb od ddr5 memory?

People keep seeking voraciously for upates without caring how it will affect their phones speifically, as always going higher will always be best. Well, tbh, i bought a netbook 2 months ago which was running win7 home and didn't think twice about downgrading to Xp, and it all works much nicer....I know it's not android related, but i believe you get the jist,..
