Hey Fadi you should try using the

tags in your posts so we can save room on the thread, It also makes it easier to view the pictures because you can just click the button and you can see them. :good:

It's like this

If I wanted to hide that image I could use the [hide"] and [/hide"] tags. (Without the " " ).

So with these tags the image would be like this :)

all you have to do is put the tags around the image and it will get a spoiler button. You should try it when pictures are huge. :cool:

If you don't understand just quote my post and you can see the tags and what I put to make it work. :good:

No contacts and other conundrums

Well, I have a few questions. I PMd Afnan about problems with connectivity. I'm not sure if I'm having hardware problems but my mobile internet has become completely buggy. Will work on some sites and not on others Then takes forever to download apps. called T mobile and they aren't having any network issues. My wife's sensation is in the shop so I can't compare but I'm pretty frustrated right now. Also, noticed I don't have any of my google contacts. Am I misssing something?
[HTC Amaze 4G] putergod:
WiFi calling isn't working for me on this ROM. I've installed the zip for it like 5 times to no avail.

Any ideas?

I was eagerly awaiting your sense based version...
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Hey Steve sorry if you are having problems with mobile data. I haven't had any problems with data and others haven't reported problems yet so I honestly doubt it's a problem with my ROM.

You can try to wipe all then re flash but I haven't seen a problem like this before, probably never. :confused:

Are you sure you didn't run out of data or did you get throttled? Or is it simply bad coverage?

As for the contacts did you sync them? You have to go into settings to do it.

If you insist that it's a rom problem you should probably flash another and see if data works on another sense rom.

Hang on buddy my Sense version is ready but I'm not at home right now so just hold on. Sorry for keeping you guys waiting. I decided not to release just yet since I had a bit of lag during the setup wizard. I'll release it today at night, finished or not because you guys can't wait.

This is probably why Devs don't like ETA's. They are inaccurate and there is no guarantee either. :cool:
[HTC Amaze 4G] putergod:
Wasn't trying to rush ya or anything.

Oh, and about 30 mins after I posted this, wifi calling started working.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Lol i knew the zip works! :p

But the sense one is working flawlessly so far with wifi calling. It's a bulkier rom though.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
Contacts

any known issues with the contacts? For some reason my contacts are not linking up at all. I literally show no contacts. Is there a workaround or should I perhaps wipe and reinstall? Also, I'd appreciate any input on 4 ext. Do you wipe all partitions other than the sd. ?
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
There's no issue with contacts for me. You should always choose "Format all partitions except sd" so everything gets wiped. It's basically a superwipe inside 4ext.

Did you dirty flash? I blocked that option but removed the inability for people to dirty flash since it would be inconvenient. Dirty flashing usually causes problems like these.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
no dirty flash.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Progress Update

Guys I have been working on my Sense Rom and I can't upload it tonight. :crying: There is a giant Wi-Fi problem. :mad: Wi-Fi refuses to connect. UGH!

I will have to rebase it tomorrow and hopefully I'll figure out what's causing this problem. It might be one single .9patch file that got broken. No wonder they're infamous.

I'll continue development tomorrow. Hope I don't encounter stupid problems like these tomorrow. :fingers-crossed:

And if a JB Sense ROM is created, then I'll probably make my own custom JB Sense ROM too. :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Not sure

I don't think it's illegal, but it's unnecessary..

Anyhow, I do hope JB comes soon!
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
That might be how his account got disabled, or he was just too... You know... :p:o

If they found out he had two accounts the mods would have deleted them both.

At least that's what they did on other forum sites.

People usually make 2 accounts to cause mischief or have another ego. But this time it was unnecessary.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
so formatted all partitions and it's good as gravy. I do have one issue that's been intermittent since I was stock. My accelerometer is not working again. the funny thing is that when I was having all the issues on my original flash with contacts and internet the autorotate function was working, now that I have a clean install and contacts internet working consistently I've got the accelerometer issue again. On an aside and this is no joke. I seem to have a weird issue with electronics, like some crazy electrical issue so much so in fact that when I purchased my last car my mechanic said "All joking aside, you need to purchase a car with as few power options as possible, there's something wrong with you" lol anyway if I could harness these electrical powers for good all would be right with the world. Does anyone have any ideas on the accelerometer issues?
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
This is exactly why we recommend full wipes. :)

And did you calibrate the accelerometer? Is auto rotate set to on in quick settings?
[HTC Amaze 4G] sgtfoo:
In your mostly AOSP ROM, there are some buttons in applications where the text is the same colour as the button and so it's barely visible. Can those buttons be shaded darker?
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
I am aware of that issue. I will try and fix it soon but it's hard since I can't find the right Png file in framework-res.apk or Systemui.apk. :o
[HTC Amaze 4G] jsteve01:
Yes and yes. It may be a hardware issue but it was odd because auto rotate was the only thing working right last night

I'm in the Note (XDA) forums and I don't remember seeing him there. :confused:

The Note's ROMs are sweet. I'm on a Stock based JB ROM and am getting TMobile LTE speeds that I've never come close to.

Back to your ROM: I put a nice red BW clock and it looks sweet. I use my Amaze as my backup phone and sometimes when I need the camera
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Cool

Yay

Well I saw that he created a bunch of threads in the Q&A section so I got worried I might have to deal with him again.

Do you think I should get an AT&T S3 or AT%T Note after my amaze?

I can get a Note for around 200~$

I can get an AT&T S3 for around 270-300$ on ebay.

Both have great development from what I can see. A great dev named ptmr made some JB roms for the Note.

And of course the S3 will have great roms too. :D If T-mobile and AT&T S3 Roms are interchangeable then that would be freaking sweet.

I'm on the fence on whether to get either one of those 2 phones. I don't really want another HTC phone for now, they've been kind of bad in dev support. And after all this time with dealing with S-OFF, SuperCid, unlocking bootloaders, and whatnot Samsung has a magical thing called Odin and Kies. Wow HTC... You guys really made it easy lol.

I didn't want to get a One or S4 because I don't want to pay 500$ for a phone lol. My parents probably won't like the idea if they heard about that lol.

I'm testing my new Sense rom right now as I'm writing this. It's booting :laugh:.
[HTC Amaze 4G] putergod:
I would go with a T-Mobile model over an AT&T model because:

1. The AT&T phones do not support all of the T-Mobile frequencies, i.e. in places where T-Mobile is still using the 1700MHz band for 3g/4g, AT&T phones that are on T-Mobile will only get Edge.

2. The AT&T phones do not support WiFi Calling.

3. The T-Mobile phones do support AT&T's frequencies, so T-Mobile phones on AT&T should work fine.

At least, this is the understanding I got while researching phones to use for T-Mobile

The reasons to use T-Mobile instead of AT&T as a provider:

1. AT&T is

FAR

more expensive (even if you opt for the completely unlimited data package on T-Mobile)

2. T-Mobile has WiFi calling incase you're in the boonies, but have Wifi available

3. T-Mobile has 6 years to go on a 7 year deal where they can freely roam on AT&T's towers

4. T-Mobile's HSDPA network (with supporting phone) is up to twice as fast as AT&T's, depending on the area.

5. T-Mobile has "a-la-carte" style plans, to save you even more money on features you don't need that are customizable PER LINE (if you have more than one).

Just my $.02 worth.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
My special argument

You definitely have your facts straight, but I forgot to mention some crucial facts.

1. I would have both phones unlocked (you can unlock them pretty easily without a code), and they would be on the 30$ T-mobile web exclusive 100 minutes, 5GB Data (until throttle), unlimited messaging plan.

2. I'm pretty sure I'm already in a refarmed area. Jacksonville FL shows up in the airportal.de map on multiple mapped locations. I checked months ago, and my amaze picks up UMTS (1900?) and HSDPA (1700?) :D.

3. I forgot to mention I would be on T-mobile (d'oh!).

4. I don't need Wi-Fi calling, but some people do, that's why I'm making a Sense style Rom now. Jacksonville has no boonies :p

The reasons why I want an AT&T S3 and not a T-mobile one

1. AT&T S3's have LTE. T-mobile one doesn't for some mysterious reason. They probably had some FCC problems with the bands so they decided to deploy it with only HSPA+ (still fast, but I wanted to get LTE too).

2. AT&T S3's have a 1700 band, so if my area isn't fully refarmed, I can do the 1700 enabling mod that the AT&T GS3 people made.

3. The AT&T GS3 is cheaper for some strange reason...

Reasons why I want an AT&T Note (Note PROS)

1. It has LTE (yipee)

2. It is pretty cheap right now

3. A nice huge screen would seem cool

4. Great development

Reasons why the Note is discouraging (CONS)

1. 5inch screen might be huge, and with a case, forget Jean pockets lol.

2. Development better not die out

AT&T S3 PROS

1. Screen is big enough, not small, not too huge.

2. Great development

3. LTE

4. I can use LTE, HSPA+, AWS 1700, and the refarmed bands!

Reasons why I don't want HTC as my next brand

1. Poor development support from HTC (Not the great devs we have. :) )

2. Sick of Sense

3. They made us (the amaze) the bastard child of HTC. THEY STILL SUPPORT SENSATION BUT NOT US WTF

4. We didn't get JB, while Samsung still gave JB to the Note 1 ! (That shows Sam cares at least).
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheCoCo3133:
You can have WiFi calling on AT&T s3 by flashing a tmobile rom
[HTC Amaze 4G] putergod:
didn't know that... I was under the impression that only a T-Mobile branded device would work with wifi calling.

You don't travel?

What I've notice with my Motorola Photon (Sprint CDMA phone with GSM capability) is that it would swap a lot between 4G (refarmed towers) and Edge (lacks the 1700MHz band).

That's why I finally bought T-Mobile branded phones (the amazes) so I could consistently get HSDPA+

Are you sure the ATT phones have the 1700MHz band? Again, only from my understanding, which could easily be flawed as I am new to the GSM side of things, only T-Mobile branded phones have that band. This is why T-Mobile reps will tell you "unlocked phones can only get edge". What they mean to say is "Non-tmobile phones, except for pentaband phones, can only get edge".

Also, T-Mobile's S3 and Note II both have LTE, according to their website.

And I don't fault you at all about leaving HTC. The only reason I have HTC phones right now is because the Amaze was the absolute best, cheaply available on ebay, tmobile branded phone.

I bought them as "stop gaps" till what I really want is available (and even I am not sure what that is at the moment... but it's between the S4 >16gb, Xperia Z, Xperia i1, and possibly the upcoming Note 3).

Oh... and I may hold out even longer for a USA Made Motorola.

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------

Oh, forgot to mention, I used to live in the Jax area when I was stationed at Kings Bay. Being that the "city" of Jacksonville is almost the entire county of Duval, it's got boonies... lol.

After you cross the city limits... you still got 30 or so miles before you hit civilization!
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Whoops. I hope I didn't confuse you or anyone.

But only this AT&T version of the GS3 had a 1700 band according to xda people on the AT&T GS3 forum. They are mad scientists I swear, they are making that 1700 band work on the AT&T GS3, but it's still a WIP! GSMarena also says it has a 1700 band (for LTE though).

The T-mobile people who said the S3 had LTE are WRONG. In fact people reported getting better HSPA+ (which they think it 4g, I call it 3g because it's still 3g, even though it's blazing fast). Their S3's had an update or whatever and got better HSPA+ speed. This probably gave them the idea that they got LTE, after all HSPA+ and HSPA shows up as "4G" on the status bar. Service reps these days.

There's rumors that there is real LTE (not the HSPA+), but it's on a secret band or something and it's illegal for T-mobile to use it. Because their LTE is on a different LTE band compared to AT&T's LTE (which is on the LTE band most carriers use). Sigh T-mobile.

I do travel, but not a whole lot since I go to the hardest high school (ever) in Jacksonville. :p Guess the name.

Yeah HTC is nice but it's time for a change. I think it's time to give Samsung a shot.

And ironically Jacksonville's ghettos have great service compared to normal places. :cool:

I guess you can say there's boonies but even still T-mobile did a good job so far at coverage (WAY BETTER THAN SPRINT) in my city. There may be a couple dead zones here and there, but Sprint had way more.
[HTC Amaze 4G] putergod:
Not trying to argue or anything, so don't take this offensively, but:

Samsung Galaxy S® III LTE - Marble White - 16GB

http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Phones...ne=Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-LTE-Marble-White-16GB

Band (frequency):

UMTS: Band I (2100);UMTS: Band IV (AWS);UMTS: Band V (850);Band II (1900);Quad Band GSM;LTE

They claim this phone is LTE, and T-Mo uses AWS Band 4 for LTE (which is why HSPA+ is being refarmed to the 1900MHz band, to open up the 1700 and 2100 AWS Band 4 spectrum to LTE)

However, if your other statements are indeed accurate, and you can use ATTs S3 on T-Mo's HSPA+ and LTE bands (including the 1700), AND it's cheaper, then it's a no brainer.

Ohh, and Tmo's HSPA+ is faster than everyone else's LTE in real world performance (I've compared it to Verizon and AT&T specifically). I agree that calling it 4g is bogus, as it is still the 3rd generation GSM technology, so still 3G (fast as hell 3G, but 3G nonetheless).
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
I think that was the new Tmo GS3. There is no point in getting that one directly from them if there is an S4 sitting around.

And the AT&T one is cheaper, so it is a no brainer. :D

But with a GNOTE with JB upgraded to the S3's level, we're going to have to do some decision making.
[HTC Amaze 4G] tube517:
I would go S3. I just couldn't afford an S3 right now, even with the S4 out. But, the Note has some great devs and I'm running ptmr's stock based ROM. I'll probably get an S3 eventually for my wife. Rooting the Note is a breeze w/Odin.

And I don't really go to the Q&A threads because I'm a flashaholic browsing the Android Dev section :laugh:

I can vouch for all of these. LTE just started hitting my area and it works perfectly on my stock based JB ROM for my AT&T Note. The screen is huge at first but I'm used to it and it fits in my jeans and shorts. The devs are as cool as they are here. They keep chugging along.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rikishef:
So i just got a sms from tmobile saying that tjey have LTE coverage in my area. Idk how much of this is true but i hope it is. I live in North Jersey so hopefully you guys have it too down in fl

Tomorrow I'm hoping to update Kaioken and release my Sense Rom. Sorry guys its been hectic lately.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Everyone go check out FireROM :) in the dev section now and tell me what you think.
[HTC Amaze 4G] sam@xda29:
So now you r going to realise a HTC sense Rom ??

Right ??
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
It's already out...

Check the development section for Fire Rom
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
V 2.0 is out! People come check it out. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:

[HTC Amaze 4G] crazykas:
Your Rom is really cool but i had to switched back to energy because of RED theme.Specially on messing app.Could you make a theme or change it to stock theme in your next release.?

Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] lalit387:
Sorry for asking but it would be great if you release a sense version without any cosmetic changes:fingers-crossed:
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
I can make a stock sense rom without it being themed. With all my tweaks and features but stock looking with HTC apps. :D

I didn't know that many people like vanilla HTC Roms.

Also can everyone tell me if they like blue a different color? I want to know the best color to make. I need to know what you guys want so feedback is highly appreciated. :)

Pressing thanks on the first page and rating 5 stars is also highly appreciated.
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazykas:
My Sugesstions-

HTC defult theme is good enough for me.But please DO NOT THEME massing app!

Request-

There is a htc messaging app with secure box.I extract it from fastamaze rom & put it on energy rom.It works but unfortunately after that screen on when new message received (this is on energy tweaks) isn't working anymore..Could you please app messaign app with secure box & fix that screen on sms received issue..?If you can,i'll send u messing app extract from fastamaze rom.

Feedback-

It is really snappy sense rom i ever used..Great job..!Keep it up..!
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
OK don't worry I won't theme the messaging app. Or anything. I'll leave it as stock sense.

You don't have to send me the app I'll just download and cherry pick the msg app. Hopefully secure box does work and nothing breaks. :) Thanks for feedback and suggestions.
[HTC Amaze 4G] incapable86:
can't wait!

Blue is my favorite color :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
New link in the 2nd post! We have beats, dolby, srs, and real sound mods now! :) Enjoy! I'm putting the same mods in FireRom, then I'm going to make a bone stock looking rom with all my tweaks. After that I'll make a blue one. :)

It won't be long :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazykas:
Thankz alooott
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
made it

I made the Stock themed Rom with all my tweaks like you asked :)

Now it's time to release it in a few hours.

So I have managed to semi-brick my phone by flashing a ROM I made with MTK Firmware Adapter Tool.

It gets to bootscreen and hangs.

Preloader works and I still have access to recovery and fastboot.

I cannot flash the stock ROM using SP Flash Tool as I get a BROM error: (BROM cannot pass bootrom start command).

I've tried holing volume up during connecting the USB cable and volume down but no good.

I still have CWM recovery. Can I convert my stock SP Flash Tool .tar to a CWM .zip to flash using CWM?

I should be able to push the ROM to my phone using adb.

I've tried flashing the working boot.img from the stock ROM using fastboot but that didn't fix it.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerstavros:
An off-topic question. Before you flash the phone wrong, what opinion did u have for the phone? quality, battery life, camera, loudspeaker sound, screen, etc?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MayhemVC:
Ha! The phone is good.

Screen is great, 720p. Build quality is generally very good.

Camera is good in full light but suffers in low light and there is an issue with the flash. It is either very weak or is firing at the wrong time. The vibration effect feels strange and out of the box the GPS isn't great. You can fix the GPS once you get root access.

Battery life is good too, certainly much better than I was expecting. Sound is good with a decent pair of headphones and the external speaker is OK, just don't expect HTC One quality as it only has one speaker.

Currently the main issue is lack of custom ROMs which is why I was trying to flash my own.

Having said all of that I'd have to say it's a very good phone for the price. The screen alone is worth the $200.
