[HTC Sensation] MattTheGeek:
I rooted my HTC Sensation a few months ago and I could not get custom ROMS to go past there boot logo screens so I re-installed on carrier/factory ROM from a back up on the phones SD card. I originally wanted to do this to get JellyBean on my phone has HTC'S is a little ugly Problem is I want to install the latest system up date but when I tell it to install it reboots the phone an I get the "ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.0.9" and it sits at that menu and dose nothing what so ever. I want to install the system update. but I cant WHY?

----------------

*** UNLOCKED ***

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.27.0000

eMMC-boot

---------------

Hope somebody can help
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
you must have pure stock rom to update by OTA

no mods,no custom kernel,no recovery

in this way you can use an ruu.exe to return the device into completely stock situation

but still you can flash a jelly bean rom if you have already the latest fw version

the problem is when your device was not booting after installing a rom because you didn't enable smartflash from recovery(that feature is only for S-ON devices as yours)

and to do that you have to install 4ext recovery

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamzawi:
Hi all,

i'm an android developer and i want to know if using the phone for debigging/testing apps may broke the phone? i use it all the day to run and execute my apps,also,i'm developing an application that uses proximity sensors,so i made a lot of tests with my phone's sensors,is there any risk?

thanks in advance and sorry for my english
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 360porcento:
Why would it break your phone?

Is normal that your phones lifetime would be shorter than if you would just let it a drawer and not use it...

but you will not be using the same phone in 10 years...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamzawi:
using proximity sensors to lock/unlock the phone 10 times per minute will not kill my sensors or any other hardware component ? hope that because i don't want lose my phone,it costs ~300eur
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamzawi:
up please!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Sensors are pretty much always "on" and receiving/transmitting dara(if I'm not mistaken). Then it's up to the app to do something with that data.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 360porcento:
Lesicnik1 is right: it was to keep turned on and searching for information all time, even if there is nothing in front of it (for the proximity one)

I doesnt turn on when you put wave in front of it, it does a action.

just like your nervous system, when you get your hand (senso) burned, and the the information get to you brain (phone internals/chip) and it sends the action to take the hands from the fire (turn screen on)....

even when you are not feeling anything on your hand the body keeps the communication with your brain so that it knows when something hapens...

long story short, it will not affect the battery or device life for using it...

hope it helps:good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamzawi:
many thanks to all your answers :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KarymovDN:
The most risky part is probably a battery, since it is not very good for a phone to be constantly on a charger. But we have not killed any phone in 2-3 years, and most people change their phone in 3 years anyway.
[HTC Rezound] putney1477:
Is it ok to activate my new replacement rezound before I flash my broken one back to stock? I didn't know if it would screw something up. Does the old one need to be activated to relock and run the ruu?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
No, it does not need to be activated or have a SIM installed to relock and install an RUU. Make sure to enable USB Debugging before you do though, although I think you can still get to that with no SIM card installed, better safe than sorry

Hello,

I have an Android phone called Ninetology Stealth i7520 which I bought in Malaysia. It has android 4.0 but I dont like it much. I would like to install wp7 if possible. I see some threads and videos on other android phones people are installing wp7. is it possible with any Android phone? if yes, can you advice me a nice tutorial?

thank you very much
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faustolg:
Forget it

The easy solution is to sell that android phone and buy a windows phone, windows phone needs drivers specifically for the hardware on the phone model, so there will be no WP on that phone.

You can buy a really nice and cheap WP7:

- LG Quantum

- Nokia Lumia 610

- ZTE Tania V965W

- HTC RADAR

- HTC HD7

[HTC Sensation] Skippengs:
Hello everybody!

My HTC Sensation is acting kind of weird the last few weeks.

It all began when i flashed CM 9 on it. It worked great, but pressing both the volume button would cause it to crash, so i flashed CM10 (kang) to it.

Now what happened at CM9 already was that it would just turn itself off at some points. During browsing, or taking a picture, Or just sitting in my pocket.

I had a almost full battery at that time(about 70%+) and it just went dead, reboot would give me 1% left. In CM10 the same problem happens. This time i took screenshots of the battery management screen, i included them in the attachments.

I wiped battery stats even tough it is a myth but could always try it. Did not fixed this.

Now the funny thing is when i reboot the device and it says it has only 25% left of charge. It reboots and BAM i have 75%, Reboot it once more and i lost 10%, rebooted again and it kind of stabilized. Now i have it on the charger and i am watching it, the LED on top stays on orange for about 2 seconds, then turns to screen for 1 second and then it turns of. then it just cycles trough the same again.

I hope i am making myself a bit clear about this and i will answer all questions i might have left out that are important.

Please help me because i cannot trust this phone anymore, it dies without warning and i have to boot it to find myself stranded with 1% left (which ironically can last for hours if the phone doesn't die).

PS. I included 3 screenshots. The first 2 are from when it died 2 times, as you can see the dips.

The last one is when i rebooted it and it gained allot of percentage.

Thanks in advanced

Skippy
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Have you checked to see it if you have any wake locks? You can check with better battery stats apk. Also might be time for a new battery. You can get a good extended battery like anker for under 20 dollars,. My stock battery life was so bad, changed it to extended battery now it's really made a difference!
[HTC Sensation] Simone:
Hi,

I recommend you to see if you have any wakeclocks (Check via BetterBatteryStats)

You might have a bad flash. Check MD5 of ROM/Kernel

Check your running applications.

Let your newly installed ROM settle down for a few battery cycles.

But in your case, maybe a new battery?
[HTC Sensation] Mastegl:
I moved before few days from stock ROM to Bruces CM10 from 14.11. and have battery problems too. It drains to fast :( ROM is pretty stable, but with this battery life, I can hardly use it... Now I am on battery only for 10h 26min, display was ON for only 1h 55min and I am on 17% with battery... Something is bad :(
[HTC Sensation] Super2020:
I have same probleme. I move from stock Rom to 11.11Bruce CM10 then upgraded to 14.11 but my battery life now very bad. I could reach up to 30h battery without charging with stock. In addition to that, I realized that the battery level could be significantly different from one boot to another : Phone show 41%, I reboot then it show 57%...

Need help but can't report on bruce thread.

It´s the same for me too... Battery skips on different values after reboot... For example when I am charging and battery is on about 90%, I do reboot and after that phone is on 100% battery... Weird...

You have to be rooted and have a app from chainfire call root stickmount.

Internal micro SD hardware hack?

I posted this question in another thread, but posting as reply here too. Since the J Butterfly has a micro SD slot, I'm guessing the DNA has the internal connections for a slot. Can anyone verify this? Might someone be able to develop a hardware hack to add in an internal micro SD card?
[HTC Droid DNA] WorldOfJohnboy:
Someone posted pics of the DNA taken apart, and there is no spot for a SD Card.

---------- Post added at 01:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 AM ----------

On another note... anyone have the DNA unlocked/rooted and an OTG cable? If so, can you plug a USB Thumb Drive into the phone, boot to recovery and see if recovery recognizes the drive? I only ask as it could serve as a SD Card to flash ROMs/Zip Mods and store Nand backups if it does... and if it doesn't, we should ask the TWRP guys to see if it is possible.
[HTC Droid DNA] havoc479:
Good news and bad news...

So on the plus side, I can confirm that USB hosting works!!! I made a horrible makeshift OTG cable and it works!!

Its really nice, I tried a 4 port hub with keyboard mouse and flash drive. I love it. Now all I gotta do is put linux on here :D

However, space is so limited on this thing, didn't think I was gonna regret not having an sd card slot!! Bummer...

But WorldOfJohnyboy gave me hope. His idea is great. Unfortunately I was disappointed when I found that neither CWM nor TWRP picked up the drive.

I was hopeful that it was gonna work since it works perfectly on android with out any thrid party apps, but I didn't even see flashing from the drive while booting recovery.

Oh well, hopefully its something that can be worked on.
[HTC Droid DNA] rfarrah:

If you had a ton of extra storage that you wanted to access, you could get one of those hard drives that creates its own wireless network. They have mini flash-drive sized ones, but they're pretty expensive and arguably unnecessary.

Havoc, I have a feeling the reason why the recoveries didn't recognize it is due to the programming end, I.e. its not setup for it. I'm sure someone could get them to work with it though, someone smarter than me haha.

Bummer...I guess this means they won't be buying Sprint after all. Although I guess the whole SoftBank thing kind of put that to bed, didn't it? I so badly wanted that to happen!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
I honestly think Sprint will be involved. They're building out their network but there's no way they can get a nation covered by 2013. They will likely partner with Sprint with their lte network for its coverage until they get a hold of things. Reason being, they want to compete against Verizon and At&t, and T-Mobile has the speeds they need, but not exactly the coverage. When sprint finishes their network vision, it'll be on par with Verizon in terms of speeds and coverage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cnstarz:
im predicting $30-50/month for unlimited everything with no throttling.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
Agree with you on that one. I actually think it might be better as Sprint is upgrading every tower in their network with a few exceptions. I'm also excited Sprint just bought some people and spectrum from US Cellular in the Chicago market. In two years, Sprint will have THE best network in Chicago, and I'm happy about that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Shoulon:
Lol very funny.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
They will probably be very tempting when it comes to their entry level pricing. Google likes to recruit a lot of customers by promotions that they lose money on, then make the money from elsewhere. (Ie: Google Play Market. If they sell only Android phones, more android apps will be bought from the market.)
