[G1 General] Bedeadu:
Awesome. Thanks so much for your post riddimmaster. At first I was disgusted when I saw this price drop. But, familiar enough with calling Rogers to try and get the best deals I can.

Anyways, I called Rogers right after reading your comment. At first the CSR said he would give me $25 back. I told him I appreciate the gesture, but I would appreciate something a little more significant then this. Explained how it is odd for a company to have such a price drop after only a month of the product being on the shelves (obviously due to Iphone 3gS coming out). He explained the 15-day policy, I commented that's fine for a store where you are buying a product, not a service. But I bought this with a 3-yr commitment + data plan.

So he said the best he could do is $25, I requested at that point he speak to his manager. He was insistent that his manager wouldn't have anything better to offer, but I requested politely that he try anyway. He came back and offered me $100 credit, obviously that pleased me.

I realize you probably were only interested in the actual $ amount I was credit. I rambled a bit there, just in case you need some guidance as to what points to bring up if you are having a hard time.

Again, thanks to riddimmaster and the androidinCanada website for posting this information.
[G1 General] riddimmaster:
$100 :eek: congrats, I have to admit I'm a little jealous ;)

I also heard the Android launch in Canada didn't go as well as expected, so that could be another reason for the price drop.

People complain about the inconsistency of Rogers and other providers, but this is a prime example of how you can use it to your advantage.

There is also the "Hardware Upgrade Rebate" you can try to get here. I know I'm not eligible because I signed a new contract but I'm keeping my fingers crossed, it's worth a shot for the price of postage.
[G1 General] ClintonH:
I saw the price drop the day it happened, got $100 back on two phones (magic)though.:D ($100 total) But I also got them to lower my monthly bill by $14 a line so I'm really happy now. Just have to be persistant and talk to the right guy.

Does this work if I buy the handset without any contract?
[G1 General] kevwo:
i spoke to a customer service manager, apparently it has to had been bought 15 days before the price went into effect
[G1 General] riddimmaster:
Not sure worth a try IMO.

They told me the same thing, I just kept calling till someone gave it to me.

I would give this a shot too.
[G1 Accessories] All~G1:
I figured this would be the best place to ask since this is the accessories forum....

Has anyone experienced the headset making the audiable "max volume" notification repeatedly without it being invoked?

I would think its more with the hardware rather the being contributed from CY's 3.6.5 ROM that I am running because when use the volume control on the phone I dont get audiable tones, but when I adjust volume with the headset I can hear the "max volume" notification. this usually happens when Im running or cycling and out of no where the notification will start and stop on its own. Is this because Im a sweaty bastard, a connection issure, or could it be something with CY's ROM.

thanks for any replies!!!
[G1 Accessories] kockroach:
I have not had that happen. My problem is that the audio drops out while I am running or cycling. Seems to be a problem if I turn my head such that if I look toward my G1 (the back of the headphones is away), that the sound drops out. And the G1 is only a couple of feet from the S9! I don't get it! I don't have this problem if walking.
[G1 Accessories] UnkzDomain:
Yup, happens to me while cutting my grass... don't know what's wrong either...
[G1 Accessories] All~G1:
Its funny cause I dont really experience that when im on the treadmill or bike.... when I lay down to do crunches I get it, but im thinking thats cause they headset is pointing straight into the ground at that point.

Thanks guys
[G1 Accessories] the3dman:
For some reason when you are too close to the phone with the s9's this can cause interference thus causing them to cut out. Try a little greater distance from the phone obviously not to far though or the wont work either. I know this may be hard to do when on a bike, or cutting the grass.

I recently upgraded my kaiser with a cooked ROM (shifu 10) radio 3.34 i guess. It worked good. After some days it started giving problem with touch. The right soft key was working continuously without even pressing it. When this happens the power button also stops responding , so i have to pull out the battery to turn of the phone. Then i loaded it with original HTC ROM WM 6.1 radio 3.28/3.29. it worked fine for some hours then the problem re appeared. then after some hours the lcd stopped responding to touch , it responds sometimes.. The keyboard worked fine. Then i went to HTC customer care center. They said LCD needs to be replaced. After getting the LCD replaced the problem persisted. what could be the problem???? Please help...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] chrishuns:
Have you tried...

Have you tried realigning the screen found in setting/ screen/ align screen?

I had an issue similiar at one time, my stylus really wasnt working well at all i was having to push hard with my fat fingers for touch to work. realigning solved my problem. Worth a try. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mithu911:
When i re installed ROM, i couldn't align the screen properly as it was not responding to touch. I'm sure it's not screen alignment problem. Why didn't touch work properly even after LCD REPLACEMENT?

I have T-mobile and just today i ordered a Rogers HTC Magic from Ebay, However after doing some more research i read i wont be able to use 3g With tmobile but rather on edge.... Im really mad at the moment and guess i will have to resell the phone....

but can anyone comfirm this??? and also is there any HTC Magic that runs on Tmobile 3g frequencies that has the 288MB Ram as well.....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallm2533:
I'm in the opposite scenario. I have an ADP1 that's only on T-Mobile's 3G frequencies, but I'm on Rogers. I don't think the ADP1 has 288MB of RAM though, so it's as fast as a standard Dream. Although it has a kickass battery cover.

Maybe we should trade, haha. Edge hurts.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cursordroid:
I know this thread is old, but there's no answer to this yet...

I went to look at my upgrade options today on the tmobile site and the white MyTouch 3g has aHome as its home screen in the pictures....

[G1 General] lbcoder:
If I am correct, the image you are referring to is under the "personalize" category... (I haven't looked at ahome since it doesn't interest me). Having it under personalize doesn't mean that it ships installed, but CAN be installed, and it can, since its in the market available for anyone who is interested.

Hi

Has anyone succeded in making a ROM running on a Scandinavian HTC Branded Magic (or Rogers) that has netfilter (iptables) support in the kernel.

All the wireless tether applications (for instance Android Wifi Tether http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/) apparently depend on this.

I would be very interested in hearing if anyone has seen or tried such a ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Azilink is the only one that works now.

PdaNet also works, but still only on cable

Thanks, Hotweiss

Yes, I also made PdaNet (http://www.junefabrics.com/android/index.php) work, but that also requires the USB cable :-(

Do you know of any progress in finding a way of making iptables support / netfilter work in the Scandinavian HTC Branded Magic kernels?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirectMatrix:
Hey Everyone,

I was trying to start from scratch with my spare G1 and go through the rooting process again.

I upload the original SPL zip file and the DREAIMG.nbh to the root of the SD card

renamed the SPL to update.zip

flashed it through Cyanogen's recovery image

rebooted the phone

tried to gain access to the bootloader through the camera+power combo so that I could reflash DREAIMG.nbh but all I got to was Cyanogen's recovery screen seemingly in some sort of loop. See the screen shot for the recovery screen. I have left it in this state for an hour or so but nothing happens.

Everything seemed to be going fine over the last few weeks as I was flashing different ROMS and themes to my hearts content. Then I upgraded to Cyanogen's recovery image from JF's and things started to go south so then I figured I would go back to stock to start again.

I'm not sure where to go from here, but I know I'm not bricked and it may be questionable whether I am even soft bricked because I have had success twice flashing both thedudes cupcake and JF latest build but it seems I can't do anything else.

Any suggestions to get back to stock so I can start over? My ultimate goal is to upgrade from the engSPL to the hrdSPL, the radio has been updated to the latest since I first rooted and I haven't touched that since. I had success upgraded the original SPL to the engSPL and have flashed may ROMS since.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueheeler:
Unless I'm mistaken, I think I know what you're trying to do.

I think you mistakenly held down HOME and POWER when it should have been CAMERA and POWER (as you noted).

For the benefit of others...

1. Make sure that DREAIMG.nbh is in the root of your sdcard.

2. DREAIMG.nbh is case sensitive. Make sure DREAIMG is capital, and nbh is lowercase.

3. Turn your phone off (remove battery if necessary).

4. Hold down the CAMERA button while pressing the POWER ON button.

5. You'll need to press the HOME button to restore DREAIMG.nbh. Do that when asked.

6. Wait

7. Give it the three finger salute when all done to reboot your phone (hold down the MENU button and press the green button and the red button at the same time).

That should get you back to RC29.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinjason:
Just for good mesure..

For good measure also backup your sd card, format it and only use the files you need on it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirectMatrix:
No I pressed the right combination of buttons but pretty much anything I was doing was bringing me to the recovery screen. I pulled the battery, loaded it in again, pressed end+camera and I got to the bootloader from there so I was able to flash DREAIMG.nbh so I'm good now. Hopefully this thread will help others.

I use Mortplayer to listen music from X1. I just launch player, plugg in headset, push "Play" button on screen, then I push "Power" button on device, screen turns off, but music continues to play, so I can put X1 to the pocket and listen music.

I did listen music this way before, about a month ago.

But today something has changed with device, because when I push "Power" after plugging headset and starting playback, the screen doesn't turn off, but only dims out instead, staying at low brightness.

Does anybody know, how to make "Power" button to turn screen completely off during playback with plugged headset again?

Failed to set data for 'htcrt_backup'

"There is no device found to meet your project configuration. Try to update your devices file with new one."

"Access Violation - read at 000000"

Do I need to setup some config file somewhere - do we have a README for the process?

3. I dont quite understand the point "replace your files, and build ROM."

I have changes done to coredll and ws2.dll which were compiled using the 'emulator' flag in platform builder

a. What compile flags should the I use before I copy/paste my dlls into the kitchen

b. In the current kitchen - coredll is a directory containing 5 files S00 to S04 and also contains imageinfo files. Do I put in my coredll.dll file? or is there a step in between?

I guess you're using Vista, right? It did me too. There are two (three?) solutions:

1. Disable UAC

2. Ignore it and via htc rom tool build .nbh by yourself (click right -> run as administrator on TOOLS\htcrt.exe) - OS.nb is in TMP directory

3. (not confirmed) Run the build script via cmdline manually, AFAIK TPC has got it written somewhere there.
