Alright, there are a good 3-4 forums going about various JGUI products. There are a lot of bad notes about the bugginess and quality of his software.

So, just to drive home our disappointment (and so he can see), I'm running a poll...

1. who has paid and been screwed?

2. who has had to do a hard reset as a result of his software?

3. who has sent an email and never received a response?

I'll start.

Totally immature topic for this forum. I think enough has been said on the subject. People are aware of the situation and we don't need to talk about it forever.

This site used to be a place I looked forward to coming to. To help people or to be helped. That's hasn't really changed but it seems to me that recently there is a lot of *****ing going on.

The two of you, and other people, have already stated their opinion in this matter. You don't need to keep *****ing on about it.

Try to balance the "freedom of speach" and "Liable, Slander, Defamation"

This is freedom of speech!

And, no, it's not inappropriate as JGUI continues to use this board to SELL his software that is riddled with bugs, etc.

The purpose is to warn others of potentially damaging software that could force them to hard-reset their PDA's and lose information.

This is an information exchange and this is an attempt to consolodate complaints about multiple JGUI applications.

JGUI creates new threads when he's tired of seeing everyone's complaints. This way he can evade bad publicity with bad software--just create a new thread! (see below)

I tend to agree that if JGUI keeps trying to use this Forum to sell his software that he should expect others (who feel that they have a legitimate complaint) to make comments.

I've also had problem with his 'freeware' software, but didn't choose to air my opinions about it.

and as for ....

.... If people have a genuine complaint (and from the amount of 'abuse' that JGUI gets on this forum I would suggest that they do) then it isn't "Liable, Slander, Defamation" is it!!!!

Personally I find the threads denouncing JGUIs work quite amusing

No, This is a witch hunt

How old are you? 13. Grow up. He's entitled to try sell whatever he wants, within the realms of the law. As he stated, people don't HAVE to buy. There are time limited demos to try. I'm not sticking up for his actions, and I don't agree with releasing software unless it is properly tested. But it's best practise to back up any computer on a regular basis. This includes Pocket PC's. And yes, software that is installed on any computer could have detrimental results but that's the risk you take from an unknown supplier without doing your research.

People have been warned already in different threads. From what I can see, you are not warning people, you are just bad mouthing him. I see this thread as a witch hunt, nothing more.

That's his prerogative.

I dunno. Maybe I will partcipate. Someone has to keep a level head. Sure, consider me in the discussion and I'll cast my vote.

come on now

If you clicked on the title of this post, you can't really be complaining how it's childish. The title is a very good description of what you'll find, and it's nothing that you shouldn't be expecting.

For the uptight morons that really take this guy's software and some mishap seriously it's a good place to vent, and to me it's FUNNY.

Especially since really early on in the whole debacle the guy had lectured me about his success in software development

:lol:
[General Topics] skenliv:
In sweden this is very common tactics in forums, it´s called "spy galla".

Like, "puking bile" in english :)

And it´s really sickening and childish behavior indeed.

But, complaining about the persons behaving likethis, is doing the exact same thing as they are doing. So, without a proper dialog, a thread is as good as closed. And if it not close, the level of the thread will go slo low that the substance is just rediculous! And that lowers the standard of the whole forum!

So i´d vote for this thread closed, as it is already clear that JGUI makes bad programs with alot of bugs, and don´t care about fixing them.

Altough, i REALLY SINCERELY don´t like that he is trying to SELL his softer in here! There is already TO many sites trying to sell people software, and this is not the place. Imagine every developer doing the same thing. It would RUIN this forum completely! :cry:

i am also "automatic hard reset victim" of my|phone 1.4 and i fully agree to all the claiming about jguis software. anyway i think it is a fact that the level of this forums discussion gets lowered by threads like this. so i would suggest the following to webmaster(s):

1. please close duplicate claiming threads (on the same subject)

2. bann any kind of advertising into a special section of this forum. this should be the only place where commercial messages are allowed.

issue 2. should prevent that people spreading commercials all over the forum and annoying users which would result in making the leave the forum -> that means end of the forum. wouldn't be the first time happening and it really would be a shame.

so long

havent really used anything from him apart from that free cellphone thingy which at times reported a signal str of 105% :P

so i cant comment too much but i do feel that there are issues within

wm2003 itself which people at times get and if they dont know better they blame the last software they put on

thinking "i installed X program and now i'm missing Y on my today screen"

this is a wm2003 thing not a 3th party software thing

and freezing devices they dont have to be 3th party software related

wm2003 is perfectly cable of freezing itself :P
[General Topics] farnold:
Hm, hm, hm... before we make that a discussion about childish behavior I like to re-focus on what would need to be the content.

JGUI develops commercial software for PocketPC.

In several cases people buying his products ended up with significant problems - me being one of them about 2 years ago. (long enough to calm my temptation, bur present enough to understand what people are complaining about :D )

Attempts of JGUI to deliver corrected versions failed or even lead to additional problems.

There is two ways to look at this:

Firstly users need to understand that it is better for them to use a demo version before purchasing a product. Gee, nobody buys a car without testdriving it... is the small price of a PocketPC program justification to miss out on a demo version? If so, the only thing you complain about is your own carelessness :shock:

Especially inexperienced and new PocketPC expect the same level of quality from a software product that they get when buying Office for their desktop computer. There is education required to reset expectations - in writing like in a thret like this and / or in wasted payments.

And I like to add a thing: I'm surprised that some here brand the complaints as childish but not the way how the forum is being misused by JGUI. I would think it's just fair to stop JGUI advertising here in the first place...

Web fora piss me off

I’m *so* sorry, but apparently I need to make 8 nōnsense postings here before I am allowed to REPLY TO A THREAD I HAVE ALREADY POSTED TO in a development forum to answer a user’s question about my software (WTF?!). Two – oh the joy, can’t even _do_ that, why oh why can’t you guys just use a mailing list… I hate web fora.

I have zero interest in _using_ xda myself (except maybe on a device at work…), but I develop for Android occasionally (the system leven, below Java™), so I do not know AT ALL what to do in the non-developer part. And I don’t want to ask a question even, but provide an authoritative answer… believe me I’m qualified enough.

You don't have to bring the phone back to stock. In Settings, change the voice input to Google Voice/ Speech (don't remember what exactly it's called).

I had this problem, too, after deleting one too many apps. I fixed it by installing one of the ROMs in the development section, then used Titanium Backup to FREEZE the bloat, rather than delete it. That way, if it caused unexpected problems, I could defrost it and return to normal.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Ratamacue:
I was working an issue on my Bionic with dock modes not working, so I did an FDR on the stock ROM and now it won't boot and neither will a SS restore of the stock ROM in the stock ROM slot. I have two separate backups of the stock ROM, and neither one will boot in the stock ROM slot; they both hang right after the Droid boot sound effect. If I leave it alone for a few minutes the hardware keys give a haptic feedback, but the screen stays blank.

On a whim, I tried restoring my most recent stock backup to ROM slot 2, and it works just fine. Question is, what happened and how much should I worry about the stock ROM slot proper not working correctly? I'd rather not go through the entire exercise of RSD/Fastboot/Root/SafeStrap/rebuild etc. if I don't have to, but something is clearly amiss.

TIA for any advice...

I've brought back my rooted (S-off) HTC Desire Bravo with a custom recovery

(4EXT)

and a custom Rom (RunnymedeAIO)

back to stock Software-number 3.14.405.1 by only using my SDcard.

I've used the Aplharev downgrader and the HTC RUU 2.3.3. Europe GSM.

I found all information I needed in Bortak's Troubleshooting Guide. Thanks :good:

#1

Check your battery or hook up your adapter! It all takes about 15 minutes.:D

I downgraded my HBoot by copying the dowgrader in the root of my SDcard and renamed it PB99IMG,

I installed it directly in the bootloader [volume-down + power button] and select 'Yes' in HBoot-menu when asked to start update?

And 'Yes' again to confirm reboot the device.

#2

Then I copied the extracted RUU (= a extracted rom.zip from HTC's RUU) so it could be used directly in the root of my SDcard by renaming it to PB99IMG

(remove or rename the previous PB99IMG) and I installed it again in the bootloader [volume-down + power button] and select 'Yes' in HBoot-menu when asked to start update?

(During the process the device will reboot once and will continue the update, just wait and follow the status onscreen)

Then select 'Yes' again to confirm reboot the device. Watch the magic work. :fingers-crossed:

All my data was erased and my phone was (S-on) like it came fresh from the store!!:fingers-crossed:

HBoot -1.02.0001

RADIO 5.17.05.23

SWnr.3.14.405.1

If you need more information or need more options just check Bortak's Troubleshooting Guide. Thanks :good:

Please send me your comments or ideas to help me and other Desire users, thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
If you want to make a real guide, you should give a bit more details.

Although this is a method the majority know, many won't know how to install a PB99IMG.zip file, nor how to extract the rom.zip from a RUU. Explain the whole process for both.

If you're gonna do something, do it properly.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul_torry:
Thanks OP

I agree the OP could have provided more information (or links to the guide).

I however found this post extremely useful if only beacuse it was the first place I found where I could actually get the file I needed on my rubbish internet connection.

Hi abaaaabbbb63,

I tried to keep this as simple as possible because I am just an enthusiast who wants to help others HTC Bravo users (with no experience at all or less),

A CLARIFICATION before error!

Hi guys,

At the risk of appearing pretty stupid (fine by me!! :)) rather than making a fatal error, would you mind guiding me through the following:

My HTC Desire BRAVO is currently S-OFF and has a CUSTOM ROM installed (Oxygen). Runs beautifully. The original 0.93 HBOOT was replaced using AlphaRev to current 6.93 in order to install OXYGEN ROM.

I need to hand this phone on to a friend and so would like to return it to stock: either to HTC factory stock or to its original TELSTRA Australia stock. REASON? simply to make it a clean stock standard unit ready for his use. There is no matter of returning it to stock for warranty purposes.

Question: Do I need to DOWNGRADE the bootloader first to theoriginal v.HBOOT 0.93 before running the stock RUU? or

BECAUSE it is already S-OFF, can I simply copy the Telstra RUU or HTC RUU (.exe file) to the external ext4 SD card and then access and run it through BOOT menu.(Clockwork - Revolutionary etc.)

What would you advise on this - plus any additional thoughts you may have!

Heaps of thanks in anticipation!

Hello, i have a serious problem with a friend's o4x. He tried to update by Lg PC Suit but he couldn't. After using it for a time (hard gaming), the phone started to overheat. He kept gaming and he finally got an error message "High temperature detected, powering off for your safety" and phone reboot.

I took the phone and tried to update via kdz but it doesn't get into SW update mode, so i tried wipe data and cache via stock Recovery and nothing, the message is still there. I can't even use the phone due to the rebooting. We didn't modify either software, root permissions, NOTHING, so i think we didn't avoid warranty, did we?

He bought the o4x via amazon US, and we are from Venezuela, can we claim the warranty here? or we can do something before?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
If its still getting this message after cooling then the CPU temp sensor must be damaged, this should be covered by warranty. I've run my phone for 2 hours gaming before and it got hot but didn't shut down

yes, phone is cold and the error remains. I hope LG could cover the warranty. But I'm not sure if they cover the warranty for an o4x from US while we are here in Venezuela (I don't want to send the phone, I would have to pay so much money :/). thanks for reply and sorry for my English.

Hi,

I'm pretty tired of my constant high CPU temps so thought I'd flash trinity kernel and under volt. Currently using ziddeys OTG and despite under clocking by 125mv temp is at 52°c as i type.

Now i have read that i should re flash rom when changing from franko to a difderent rom and here lies my dilemma.

I keep ROM backups on a thumb drive that I access using ziddey otg.

All of the ROM backups I have also have the franko ziddey kernel.

I really don't want to have to flash from a ROM zip as I'd have to spend ages getting all my settings etc back to how they were. Is there a way around this??

Cheers
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinesh690:
Personally, I would just flash the kernel without reflashing the ROM. If things do start acting up you can always make a CWM backup and restore it and everything will be as it was before
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forcedairinduction:
Cheers.

I just wondered if the resulting hybrid made by the two kernels would be detrimental to temp/ performance.

Franko does its own thing to the ram disk, although I'll hold my hands up as I have no idea what that means or if this is detrimental : )

---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

id look at what your phone is running in the background, and the ambient temp around you. 52C falls into the normsl range when using your phone, 52C shows that your cpu is active. badly behaving apps maybe? also, without wiping anything, reflash the rom and kernel, franco kernel still puts its tweaks into its ramdisk, thats just how francisco does things.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franciscofranco:
Of course I use a modified ramdisk, never said anything in the contrary...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forcedairinduction:
I'm constantly clearing cache & killing running apps all the time. I'm in the UK so its not particularly hot here re ambient temp.

So by not wiping anything do you mean leave cache and dalvic etc, just flash rom & kernel. Doesn't that mean I'd still end up having to reconfigure all settings of my current rom ? : ( also can I relash kernel from franko app as I have all my kernels stored there. Or should i start from a fresh zip?

Thanks in advance Simms
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
just dirty flash your rom, and the kernel. dont wipe a single thing. you wont have to reconfigure anything. its best to just do it in recovery, flash the rom, then kernel, then reboot. you only have to reconfigure if you wipe data(factory reset), so dont do it.

Ok simms bare with me here, im still learning. So ill flash my rom from a zip ( got one on memory stick) rather than my backup on phone (which has franko otg already as kernel) then trinity kernel from franko app (both dirty styley flashes ; )

Thanks bud
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajanu:
When you flash a ROM, it will never touch your settings, it overwrites only the files it needs. That is why you need to wipe before installing a different ROM, but not an update to the same ROM. CM to PA would require a wipe and lose settings, CM M2 to CM M3 would not require a wipe. All ROMs come with their own kernel, so a reflash takes everything to where it should be, then you can flash whatever kernel you want over that.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajanu:
Don't worry about how much RAM you are using, this isn't windows, Android clears RAM as needed. Last time I checked I was using 0.88GB of ram on my phone so yours sounds normal. If you have noticed, apps load quickly when you have used then recently, but slower when they have been idle for a while. This is because after a time Android will clear them from RAM and they need to re-load. You want them to load fast for use, and because it uses less power, so let the OS worry about killing apps and managing RAM.
