If I'm in a call and I pull the phone away from my face to hang up the screen kind of flickers on and off. I can't get it to stay on long enough to hang up the call and I end up staying on the the call until I reboot.

It doesn't matter what ROM I'm using and yes I'm properly wiping everything before I flash.

Any suggestion?

hi guys,

i would like to try this old glory phone and i have the occasion to buy it for a low price. The seller tells me that his Htc Hd2 (T-mobile version) has a really low mic volume during conversation since a friend upgraded it to Cyanogenmod10 from wm 6.5. I don't have much more info because the guy didn't the job.

Have you ever encountered this problem in this forum? If so, do you know a solution to fix it?

Because if I were sure that the problem is hardware i wouldn't buy it.

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mengfei:
I'm guessing most likely it is software/ Rom problem

there are apps out there that can boos the mic/ speaker output

or once you've tried out different ROM the problem "might" be solved
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shanman-2:
+1 on that.

Fixing permissions might even do it!

But of course there is always a chance it could be hardware. . :banghead:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 5tefano:
Thanks for your help.

I think to buy the phone, can you tell me the operations that i could try to do with the installed rom (CM10) before installing a new one?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mengfei:
Call = in/ out

Keys

Volume

Camera + Flash

Wi-fi

GPS

DATA

SD Card

Speakers

Battery contacts

Headphone Jack

USB charging - well if you can

If it has MAGLDR, you can download a few SD ROM & place it in SD card that's formatted to FAT32 & from MAGLDR you can run another ROM to confirm the low vol. problem.

Hi,

I read this post a while ago and dismissed it thinking that its obvious that the simlock program checks the code and write something into the device to unlock it....

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=3932&highlight=simlock

But... after simlock validates the first time, does the device check the simlock area, or just accept the return code from simlock?

That post demonsrates that you can rename some file to simlock.exe and make it run. Could it be possible for this program to 'pretend' to exit like simlock, and so validate the first time round.

Has anyone dismantled simlock to see exactly what it does, or in fact if we could reverse engineer its code validation algorithm (which should be a one way hash if they are sensible!)

Toxic
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] JohnSmith:
Hi,

check is done in GSM ROM...

Simlock.exe is only UI component to enter value.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] toxic:
hi,

Ok so the check is done in rom, if failed call simlock.exe

Hey guys, i ve got a problem with my battery on slim bean 4.2.2 build 2.5. Android OS seams to use a lot of battery, like 60%. This wasn't the case on my previous stock ROM. Is there anything I can do without reflashing slim bean?

[Verizon Droid Charge] ScoobyXT94:
I've searched and searched, but come up with nothing.

So today I decided I'd root my phone. After that was all said and done, I started up the phone and got a message, "unable to charge non supported battery see user manual." I never had any problems with this new battery, an Acesoft 1800 mAh that I've had for about a 1.5 months. I bought this battery because my old Samsung battery got fried. (I took it out and dropped it into water...)

I just purchased a Samsung battery off of amazon for $10, hoping that it'll come and fix all this.

I wanted better battery life, a faster phone, etc... None of that is useful if I can't charge my battery.

I used this root guide:

theunlockr (dot) com/2012/12/29/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-proclaim/

(I'm new, I can't post links yet. I'm sure you know what to do to go to the webpage)

So, my question: How do I fix this "non supported battery" mishap? Is there a different root or kernal I have to use? Will the Samsung battery I ordered fix this?

Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Wrong forum kid. Anyway I've had this message once or twice. Power down and take the battery out. Hold down the power button for about ten seconds, then put the battery back in and boot up. Hopefully that works.

Hi guys...

I'm on T-Mobile UK, and I'm having problems with GPRS. I did have this working on ppc 2002 (XDA Dev 1.2)... After upgrading to ppc2003 I just can't seem to get GPRS working (Get a "Cannot connect" error).

Can anyone recommend a good/working radio stack for T-Mobile UK, and possibly provide some linkage... Thanks :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Confirming you also upgraded the radio stack? If so what was the radio stack version before you upgraded it?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Ross:
Hey Qman... It was version 4.01, and after upgrading to 4.21 from O2 it killed off GPRS. I _think_ the reason maybe because 4.21 uses class 8 GPRS, which T-Mobile may not support.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Ross:
hehe... Well I was doing a radio upgrade, and the phone restarted (as normal.. you know where you get the white screen and the percentage bar)... But I left the SD card in, and it came up with "Do you want to format...", but this seemed to crash it, and the device locked totally... I soft-reset... and then it just came up with the O2 bubbles, but rather than saying R <version number> at the bottom in red.. it just showed an R..

After about 4 minutes of hanging at the o2 bubbles, the device looks like it tries to carry on with the radio upgrade, the screen goes white, and a blue bar appears at the top of the screen. You can also see the little keyboard icon in the bottom right corner. But thats all.. Theres no writting, or detail anywhere on the screen. If I keep pressing the volume button, the today screen will appear, although where the start menu is, its obstructed by a blue bar.

Any ideas? :cry: lol

4) Downloaded Rom manager and booted in backup mode, took back up.

5) Removed Sim card Installed JB 4.2.2 , found No Network , not sure what happened ,So thought will go back to my initial version (2.3.3)

6) Started in recovery mode and tried to get back to old version , selected the version and tried , then phone restarted.

7) Now comes the problem , Phone was on startup screen , with "S" . So removed battery and tried to go to the recovery mode again and tried to see the contents in SD card , but its showing as Can't mount /sdcard,

All the time its going directly to CWM recovery...where I cannot load Files from SD card (as its not mounted) or if I reboot again its coming to the same screen...

8) Tried all the ways , formatted SSD card , flashed 2.3.3 again , but nothing working.

Now I need to get my phone up and running , as soon as possible . I am looking for jobs and without the phone and my contact details , I will be really struck , Please help me ..

No its not possible and you should wipe data/factory reset cause if you dont you will get into bootloop

Not necessarily.

@OP: it's always the best to wipe phone before installing new rom, however.. if it's update of same rom, then it's mostly not needed to do full wipe..

if you install rom same type (like 2 stock based roms or 2 CM based roms) sometime you can go without wiping.

I've spent the last 2 days trying to install CM10.1 on my One X+ but eventhough I meticulously follow the Installation guides: I always end up with AOKP ( Yes you read it right) boot loop with the unicorn and swagger initiation.

I've successfully installed the AOKP before and ever since then, the unicorn boot is stuck on my phone no matter what I do, I've tried a complete wipe of my phone, I've reinstalled the original RUU like 5 times but whenever I try to install the CM10,1 I get stuck on the AOKP boot.

I follow this order of tasks for the CM10.1 Installation:

1.Relock bootloader

2. Install original RUU

3. Let my phone boot in the original ruu and copy the CM10.1 zip + the correct gapps

3.Reunlock bootloader, flash recovery TWRP and let it root my phone with the SuperSU

4. Boot up my phone and let SuperSu complete the rooting through TWRP

5. Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Data reset in TWRP

6. Install CM10.1 rom in TWRP

7. Install gapps

8. Restart in bootloader and flash the kernel with the boot.img obtained from the CM10.1 zip file

9. Restart my phone, after the HTC logo, the AOKP unicorn boot animation pops up and stays there forever.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] Peter Poelman:
'Admin Policy' is a little-known feature of Microsoft PocketPC that was built mainly for security-aware corporate customers. It allows one to lock a PocketPC device in a mode that no longer display a 'run' dialog, disallows the addition of external programs via ActiveSync or through Internet Explorer, disallows renaming of files to .exe and disallows remote changes to the registry through 'RapiRegMod'.

To be able to play with 'Admin Policy', on most PPCs one has to rename the registry value 'Redirect' in the registry at '\HKLM\Controlpanel\AdminPassword' to something else. Then go to 'Settings' / 'System' and look for the 'Policy' applet.

To enter the 'Secure Mode' the user has to enter a password, and the same password needs to be entered if the user is to leave again. The unicode representation of this password (0x0000 appended) is hashed using MD5 and placed in the binary value 'AdminInfo' in '\HKLM\Security\Policies\Shell' (on WM2003) or '\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Shell' (on PPC2002).

However, they forgot to move the DWORD value 'NoExternalExes' (set to one when the Admin Policy is on) from the old to the new spot in the registry, and so the whole system just doesn't work on WM2003: you can still move binaries to the device and run them.

It still claims it works: it says:

But that's Not True (tm) until you manually add the 'NoExternalExes' value.
