I'll give that a try and report back.

EDIT: Couldn't find it in the Market but downloaded Dead Pixel Detect which I assume does the same thing.

EDIT: OK seems like I have 3 dead pixels but very very hard to see - only really noticeable if you've got the brightness boosted up to full and actually searching for them. In normal use, they are not visible to me at all. Only if/when the screen gets more and start to bug me will I enquire about warranty. But for the time being, I'm quite happy with it.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
If it is a grey import, chances are that HTC don't have to offer honour any warranty whatsoever, or at best will honour the warranty, but only in the original country that they sold the device into.

I do know that in the UK, a vendor would not be able to sell brand new goods and then abrogate their responsibilities if it goes wrong, so it may well be your vendor may be acting illegally by not offering a warranty if the store you are buying from is based in Canada (which I guess it isn't!). However, that would depend on your local consumer protection laws I suppose of which I have no experience.

Dave

on the way to number 3

I have literally just gotten back from the store with my second handset. This has dead pixels also.

Other than the shoddy lcd and seal around it, the phone is great. HTC shouldn't have dropped the ball on this one. It being their new eyeball phone and all.

I'm a bit disappointed.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Lean:
I ordered mine from Orange 2 weeks ago Friday, It arrived on the Tuesday (as the new carriers DPD do not deliver phones over the weekend :(

It arrived I set it up and noticed 3 centrally located dead pixels - called and was told to return via post?.. anyway after a right hassle (waiting for 'teh system' to log my return back in.. they sent out a new one which arrived last Tuesday 25th. No dead pixels but the trackball was broken (unable to scroll right). Then kicked off big style and they couried me a new one for Thursday and fingers crossed it's all looking good now.. certainly I'm loving it!

If there is anything wrong with your phone you should get a new one even if you have to wait a small while - remember you are paying for it contract or not!

I just got my 6th Hero. It's perfect, no screen gap, not a single imperfection in the screen. The good ones are definitely out there....
[Hero, G2 Touch General] spacecat:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Switchbitch:
Haha good point. Seems like the ones with the LED faults also have issues with overheating. This one is never warm so fingers crossed. The last one i sent back got really hot with normal usage.

This one's getting mollycoddled for sure, I don't want to have to go through another 6 to get a good one again if it breaks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] :
Hello

I've had a similar problem. On startup, I get several white spots. Upon downloading the dead pixel detector from the market, I realised these spots only show up on the black colour background which leads me to believe that they are caused by dust and are not in fact dead pixels, as they work normally for all other colours.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] GinUwiNLady:
dude it's not just u

I am on third G2 and this has dead pixels as well and the second one had a gap on the left side of the screen this is suprisingly disappointing comming from HTC I'm sure there are more out there ppl just aren't noticing them. at any rate I will keep returning this expensive azz phone till they get it right!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] otte89:
I have 1 dead pixel too but you can barely see it, so it doesnt really matter to me.

Sucks though when you got something new with dead pixels. :(

2 friends of mine with hero dont have dead pixels.

*waves* I am moving over to the Dream forums now, seems the wing is finally dead. It was a good phone, (Slow, but good) that finally took that big trip to the washing machine. T-Mo sent me a G1 back, so it's off to the dream forums I go now to continue doing what ever I can to void my warranty and piss off tech support. ;)

Recently the MusicID app has stopped working and is asking users to update, if you try to update, it fails saying this is a UK only app at this time...

is there a known fix or is this an issue relating to Shazaam's recent lawsuit against several carriers regarding the use of their name?

I use this app a lot and hope a fix is in the works.

Thanks in advance to all who tackle this problem.

Hi, when launching my device (Topaz), the PIN request is missing or just in background - I would like to have the focus on it when starting.

SK Tools show me these applications in Autostart (followed by number of order):

coldinit.exe 0

connmgr.exe 0

device.exe 0

gwes.exe 0

services.exe 0

shell32.exe 0

tskschedule.exe 0

GAlarm Reload.lnk 3

PKG.lnk 4

SIPChange.lnk 5

CommManagerStartup.lnk 6

HTCStartup.lnk 7

BirdieWather.lnk 8

ShowcaseXLauncher.lnk 9

Which one is the one I need for entering the PIN? What's the best position?

Thx in advance.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OndraSter:
I'd bet that it does cprog.exe - if you delete it from SYS, instead of opening PIN input it says "cannot open cprog.exe". Try adding it to startup and you'll see.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Tatsch:
Thanks for yout reply.

Though "cprog.exe" is not present in the list above which SK Tools gave me, it is running - but in background, so there is no chance to enter the PIN.

Tried to add with SK Tools "cprog.exe" to the items of autostart as you suggested, but there is no "cprog.exe" after that in Autostart. And no change of behavior, when the device starts.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eljuego:
why have the v1.2 no compcache?

eljuego
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
As a note remember that JACxHero Roms dont have Compcache enabled by default.

The first post in the Dream Forum JacxHero thread tells you how to enable it - you need to edit the user.conf file, which i think is in /system/bin, can't remember right now.

It tells you which settings to change to get each combination of linux-swap and compcache :)

(BTW I know as it's working for me...)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gdskp:
Is it for 32A or 32B?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xa3001:
The rom for 32a or 32b ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Good spot, I should have pointed this out.

32B - sorry, have now edited the thread title.

No idea mate. I suspect it was because of the issues with WiFi that they removed it until they could fix it.

One oddity I've noticed - the weather widget doesn't work. i select London as a city, it has a bit of a churn saying "loading weather", and no weather ever turns up. Clicking into the weather app workable fine.

Snap judgement - it's not as fast as Qtek's Rom. Just feels a bit "off". Maybe it's just me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setenza01:
Loccy, the widget are buggy you sure you have ported the version 1.2 not the version 1.1 ? In version 1.2 the widget are fixed

edit : The widget have no border, but the rom is really fast probably the fastest rom i have tested !!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Am pretty sure I called 1.2 the right filename but I was drowning in roms by the end so it is possible I got them mixed up. Can't check until I get home now though.

Either way I'm not too impressed - more bugs than Qtek and it is eating battery (although I have been hammerring the phone more or less constantly over the few hours I've been out). I think when I get home I'm going to build the final JacHeroski Rom and see how that goes, I believe that has Compcache running.

Dazcox, how are you finding this Rom? You've been running it longer than me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
Actually I've been using QTek today... but about to install this one will let you know
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Really? It's not a patch on Qtek for me. How fast's your SD card?

Am just downloading the final release of JacHeroSki - v2.7.4r2 - and will give that a try. I wonder if some of these new releases are a little too bleeding edge to be useful. If a worthwhile update.zip for the 32B emerges I'll post it here.

I thought you'd done your own boot.img hacking and were running this already..?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setenza01:
I have a 8Gb class 6 sdcard and it's really fast more than the qtek rom

The 2.7.4r2 good idea, you make the port today ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
now I am, tried all the other builds myself
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Ah. I have the stock 2Gb Vodafone pile of ****e (plus an "8Gb class 6" that I bought from ebay that causes a reboot loop on my Magic :(). That'd probably be the problem for me.

Right chaps, here's another one for you. This is JacHeroSki version 2.7.4 r2. Someone else here has done JacHeroSki previously*, but I don't think they ever updated to the final release. It's a little behind the curve in that JAC seems to have gone on to work with Dizzy, and in a different direction, and it won't see any more development. It has working Compcache, but lacks the fancy config scripts of later builds. If you want to play with your Compcache settings, you need to edit the a2sd script in /system/bin. No conventional swap or facility for one. I'd say this is pretty much where Qtek was trying to go with his Compcache ROM though:

http://www.4shared.com/file/123729537/191c816a/jacxhero10-pn-magic.html

Am not sure I'm going to stick with this, however. I've just seen in the thread on the Dream forum that you can get Compcache working in JacXHero 1.2 by nabbing the boot.img from 1.0, so I'll give that a go too. What I'd really like is a working ROM with Compcache and swap as a backup.

edit: * speak of the devil, it's just turned up on the front page of the threads, they did do the final release, but it was for 32A not 32B. Oh, and am very disappointed to find no multitouch in the browser.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
Does texting work fine on this ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Honest answer? I don't know. I got a couple of text earlier when running JACxHERO 1.2, and I was hammering the browser at the time (if icanhascheezburger.com isn't going to run you out of available memory, I don't know what is). But I think a definitive answer will have to come from people who text more than I. Unfortunately texts seem to be an issue on all Hero ROMs on the G1 and the Magic 32B, because of memory - hence why my goal is to get a build with as much "memory" as possible, even if most of it is swap and compcache sleight of hand.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
Am getting a boot loop after clean flashing this rom, any ideas why? :o
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Which one? I found I had to completely clean off my ext2 partition before it'd run (coming from the Qtek ROM). Well, actually what I did was go into the recovery console and shift everything the Qtek had left in ext2 into another directory so that this ROM didn't get confused by it :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] r1tman:
If you were coming from Qtek's Rom, like I did, It does boot loop unless you clean your ext partition first, then wipe and reinstall the rom. It runs like a champ.

to erase the ext: boot into recovery

then from adb shell : run

mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd

rm -rf /system/sd/*

then do whats stated above and no boot loop anymore. :)

PS: Loccy thx for the port.

PPS: to get this working with compcache instructions are in the first post of the dream rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
Am abit new with the terminologies here :(. Is there a guide I can follow to do the clean wipe. If i reformat my SD card to the necesarry partitions, it should work?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Should do, if you use the partitioning option on the recovery image, that'll wipe everything.

De nada. All I did was just change a few files.

I'm done for the night now people. I did try to get 1.2 running with 1.0's boot.img, but ended up with a ROM that had no working wifi and no apparent Compcache. I figured that wasn't any better than 1.0 proper (which I'm going to give another crack and see if I can tidy up the Compcache settings to my satisfaction - I can live without wifi for now).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
cheers pal
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
Link not working :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
D'oh. Front page now edited.

Oh, if anyone else is perverse enough to try 1.0, Exchange doesn't work. You need to edit build.prop and take out the spaces in ro.product.model=T-Mobile G2 Touch. Make it ro.product.model=Hero or something. You might need to do ro.product.name as well. Exchange will then work.

edit: have updated front page with modified 1.0 ROM with working Exchange.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Right, I am now definitely calling it a night, but just in case anyone else wants to try version 1.0 of the ROM (which is rapidly becoming my favourite), here's my user.conf to get Compcache with backing swap:

# General parameters
general{
apps2sd=0	# this is useless here, require a modified a2sd script
media2sd=1	# moves the medias to sd if /system/sd/media exists
}

#compcache related parameters

cc_disksize=0	# Ram swap disksize - any number between 1 to 95 should work

cc_backingswap_en=1 # enable or disable backing swap
cc_backingswap=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 # pointing to the backingswap partition device
cc_swappiness=80 # default 60
}

# 528000
scaling_min_freq=128000	# default 128000

sampling_rate=2000000	#default 200000 depending on kernel version
powersave_bias=200	# default 0
}

Also, the issue with the weather widget on these ROMs can be solved by going into the weather application, changing the units from Celsius to Fahrenheit and back again.

Finally, the 1.2 ROM has a bit of a transparent theming thing going on so that widgets have no borders. If you don't like it (neither do I) go and moan on the original Dream thread and tell JAC and Drizzy they're ruining a great ROM!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setenza01:
Is there a way to have wifi works on JACxHERO 1.0 ? This rom is very fast and usefull
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
Afraid that's not within my abilities - we'll have to wait until Jac and Drizzy come up with a new release.

To be honest, I've decided I'm going to go back to a Cupcake based build for now. I had 1.0 all day running today, and while my Compcache/backing swap made it usable, it was still sluggish, and it literally ATE battery (down to 65% in a few hours, with about half an hour of cumulative 3g browser use). I loved the browser, and the multitouch implementation was great, along with the visual bookmarks. I also loved the mail and messaging widgets. However, all this visual candy ultimately wasn't worth the sacrifice of usability in terms of speed and battery.

I'm trying the latest JACxROM - someone else has already done a Magic version of this but they haven't kept it up to date with the latest release. I'll post my one over in that thread if anyone else is interested. I'll come back to Hero and give it another try (and post a new ROM) when Jac/Dizzy release their next release .
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
My take on the JacxHero 1.2 - runs great, abit sluggish, been using it for a whole day and have had no HTC rosie load screen (prob would have had one or two by now on other Hero Roms) . Slight delays on the ringtones sounding when i get incoming calls or texts but am not fussed as the trackball led lights up instantly and vibrates instantly.

Shocking thing for me - texting seems to work fine! Theres two friends of mine who i have asked to miss call be back if they text me and I dont reply back to them within 5 minutes, have had no miss calls from them plus theres no breaks in the chat conversations lol. This is both with phone in standby (where other hero roms seem to kill the messaging app sometimes) and in the texting mode where the sms app is active and running as am text chatting. But still texing and trying it to see how well it works.
