Radio?

You mean if I update my ROM my radio will be automatically updated? If yes, then i only have to put an android rom in sd card and then install it? I hope there is no risk of bricking my phone. Is the latest ROM (WM) available on HTC website(INDIA) suitable for this? Please reply guys! If its really that simple, my phone will shine like a diamond. Please answer while keeping my ROM in mind! Your help will be appreciated.

If it's to be done manually(Radio), then how to do it and what are the risks?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
correct, stock roms include spl and radio.

get hspl4

use it to set 3.03.hspl (NOT 3.03.0000, thats stock)

run the 3.14 rom you wanna flash over usb

radio will now be 2.15.50 and rom will be 3.14

go ahead and put sd android on sd
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] themegastar1:
spl?

Okay, so let's make it clear. First, I've to download a ROM from htc India's website, then I've to install it by connecting it through USB, after that I've to download any one ROM from xda developers' website(of android). Then what? What was that 'spl' thing you were saying? How to change that spl, etc... Can you please elaborate. Your help would be appreciated.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
no

1/ bootloader

2/ hspl4.exe --> 3.03.hspl (this is a hacked spl, , spl = secondary program loader, , ,it starts the phone, teh hacked one allows the wrong rom to be flashed without failing, , you do NOT currently have hspl because you chose 3.03.0000 which is the factory spl)

3/ bootloader

4/ install the indian rom over usb

done.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Why elaborate when everything's already there for you? There's a forum search tool at the top of your page, as I stated earlier - USE IT.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] themegastar1:
What?

I am currently having SPL- 1.42.0000, I've already listed my ROM and radio. So first I need to get a new rom from HTC with SPL 3.03.0000 and a better radio. Then I've to install HSPL 3.03 via HSPL4, after that I've to put Android ROM in SD CARD formatted in FAT32, then run the CTRLPD(or whatever) and haret.exe, then I am done! Aren't I right?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
no

put the androidrom.zip you wanna flash on the sd card

then

bootloader

run hspl4

choose 2.08.hspl

bootloader

flash radio 2.15.50 (see the 'various radios roms and tools' link in my sig)

bootloader

flash magldr

magldr menu - usb flasher

nand toolkit - select target partition size on left, click repartition bottom left

magldr menu - 8 - ad recovery

cwm starts

choose 'instal zip from sd - choose zip - and point it to teh zip file you wanna instal

thats it

I read your comments and researched on many websites and found one with easy guides- Addictivetips or something like that. Now I know the whole procedure. Thanks to you and that website.

[Android Apps and Games] cormie:
I've a lot of contacts so need a good app to manage them and Go Contacts offers everything I need. There are two annoying things (bugs?) with it though:

1) When you go to save a contact (and I save on average 2 new contacts daily), some numbers are automatically separated by Hypens every few digits. If you go to delete the hyphen, it will also delete the number before it?

2) If you miss a call and open the notification bar and click the missed call, it goes away, but then if you miss 1 other call, later in the day, it will say "2 missed calls", if one person tries ringing you 4 times and you miss them all, it will then show as 6 missed calls. If you check them and the notification area is clear etc and you get 1 more missed call, it will say 7 missed calls... and so on... I solved this by opening the missed call action with stock contacts, but would prefer not to have to use the two programs and just do everything with GO.

These are about the only gripes I have with it. I've heard suspicions about GO in general, offering so many ad free brilliant apps for free with no clear way for them to earn revenue from anything, but I guess I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now because the apps are good for my needs.

HI all

I was wondeing if you can help.

Today, all of a sudden my SD card has stopped working. It has been in use I had music and photos on it. But this morning after being charged last night it seems to have stopped working all togherther.

I have the SD card logo on my notifications bar.

It says 'Bland Card'. I have tried to mount the card in options but it isn't working. NOTHING has changed on my phone at all that i'm aware of.

The phone sometimes said that it was 'preparing the SD card' on the notifications bar but usually works after that but now not so much.

I dont know anything about routed or anything its just out of the box for me lol.

any help to get this working again is much appreciated.

***EDIT***

Also, my phone picks up my songs on the SD card in the music player but it isn't showing photos in the gallery or even regestering that there is an SD card in the phone???

I would personally suggest you trickdroid 1.0 with Sense 4 lite and full. It is ICS obviously and combines a mixture of full sense 4 and sense 4 lite in order to enjoy full sense as well as speed. I'm downloading this right now as well.

I would say you either try this rom due to it being Sense 4 rom or Ice Cold sandwich because sense 3.6 is pretty much same as sense 3.5 and sense 3.0

It'll be back up soon, the mod's are giving it a quick run through (there was some Q&A thread about it, search for it, probably on the first page)

But that said, pretty much every ROM with sense has it, or has the capability to get it. Since the latest update to blackout, all working 3.6 ROMs have it. And all sense 4a ROMs should have it, if it doesn't, there's a tweak for it.

I'm thinking about having my phone naked....... well, sort of. What I mean is, I was thinking of adding the SGP Glas for the front. So now the front will be protected. Then I would have a bumper protecting the sides of the phone. For the back I would have an invisible shield, Even if I do happen to drop it I can easily buy the back panel since its cheap. Do you think this would be a smart way of having my phone feel naked and having great having protection?

I just love the naked slim body of the phone. I do have a diztronic case even though the case has very little bulk, its still does not the feel the same.

Looking for some advise

What I would buy to do this is...

[Galaxy S III Accessories] aydc:
You don't need to protect the screen at all, gorilla glass is much stronger than your flimsy plastic sheets you put on it. If something can scratch gorilla glass, that "screen protector" will not stop it at all. A weaker object can't protect a stronger object.

What you need to protect is the phone's back. I use my phones naked always. I've never had much problem. However with SGS3, my phone's back is covered with scratches. I don't remeber having any other phone with a backplate this vulnerable.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rayoubi:
Nah Gorilla glass can be scratched.

I'm sure if I did this to gorilla glass without a screen protector.... it would be destroyed.

I'm also using SGP glas on my S3, but I use with Samsung's slim case. This thing add literally no thickness at all! And it protects back and the camera. I thought about using SGP ultra bumper case but I'm worried about camera lens since it doesn't provide any kind of protection around.

exactly. the point of a screen protector is for it to get scratched up rather then your screen. Hence their name, screen protectors..... Replacing screen protectors are far cheaper and easier then a replacing scratched and scuffed up screen.. Contrary to common belief, Gorilla Glass is not impervious to scratches.

Have the people who say that screen protectors mess up the clarity of the screen ever tried one of the high-quality ones? I have and I'd never go without one.

And, who says gorilla glass doesn't scratch up? Corning?

If other people have managed to scratch their screens, it can happen to you too.

Despite what Corning and some lucky people say, I wouldn't take a chance on an accident with such an expensive and essential piece of gear, and, therefore I'd never advise anyone else to do as I don't.

My opinion...

Yes Gorilla glass may be great against breaks, but its vulnerable to scratches I.e. sand in your pocket

I picked up a 7 dollar rubbery thin outer skin for the phone because the thing was TOO DAMN SLIPPERY. I dropped it and scratched the side one day.

Definitely go with the screen protector, but get a case of sorts too.

+1 on the Ghost Armor and also +1 on the Zagg. I had a Zagg/Invisibleshield on my S2 and made my screen look like a non amoled/led/lcd screen and more like a old tube television. They only offer their "HD" screens for Apple products.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] setzer715:
I had a ghost armor installed a while back. It protect the back well but that is all it's good for. WAY overpriced for that. The screen washed out and had strange lines on it. The sides and top were a joke at best for protection (useless). For the screen I recommend BSE (Best Skins Ever, bestskinsever.com). Yes I have a little orange peal affect but it DOES NOT wash out or hamper the high def display AL ALL! And for the price, $9, for the whole body you CANNOT go wrong.

On a side note, I ordered the whole device because it was only $2 more. I plan to put the back on and try out a bumper. Pictures of screen protector below, sorry for the quality, I suck with a camera!

Also, gorilla glass helps but is not impervious, why do you think there are so many replacement digitizers/lcd's out there? Screen protector is imperative IMHO. Its the first thing I buy.
