i have the red, green and blue screen going on and no matter what i try to do its not doing anything, i tried to reinstall the OS and my pc wont detect any phone that is connected. is there anyway i can get this phone back to normal?
[HTC Excalibur] crazyasslatino:
damn.. anyone please?
[HTC Excalibur] hawksball55:
Hey crazy first thing i would try is to make sure you have active sync installed and the connection manager set to connect via usb. if you have it setup right active sync should recognize the phone whether the comp does or not as long as active sync sees the folders you can flash. secoundly use the search option for the forum to find related articles for the loader screen and flashing.
[HTC Excalibur] tuannghia1985:
tri-color screen, that is Boot loader mode, where you can flash/ reflash your EXCA to a new rom. Make sure you install "Activesync", make sure you plug the USB cable to your EXCA.

When you plug the usb cable, the tri-color screen will change the "Serial" to "USB".

That mean, your computer has recognized your phone.

The rest of thing, you could spend little time to know: "HOW TO FLASH A NEW ROM SUCCESSFULLY?"

Good luck.

Hello,

I'm looking for something like this case

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=290335512830

It has 2 parts ... one is kind of "cradle" and has clip and other is like a protective shell which you can "slip" into that cradle. I really like that design and the fact that you can "slip" your "shell" into "cradle" in 2 ways - screen facing outside (for better view) and screen facing inside (for more protection).

"Cradle" also has rotating belt-clip.

Unfortunately, when I ordered that case it had quality problem ... belt-clip is attached to "cradle" by PLASTIC connector, which breaks easily. So I'm in process of returning it.

But ... I REALLY like the design. Can somebody recommend me something like that but better quality ?
[Touch HD Accessories] malaha:
Hi bogdatov

I have the same case by Kroo. I like it alot...but do wish I could find something that works the same but more stylish like the cases on more-things.com. I'm going back and forth on rather I want to carry the phone on my belt or in pocket. Had mine for about 3 months now. No problem with belt clip but the leather on the corners of the snap-on case that rubs against the holster are fraying on all sides. Also inside "suede" covering in holster is peeling off. Use to have the ORBIT FLEX by Krussel. Pros and cons to each. Good luck!
[Touch HD Accessories] bogdatov:
How is slipping "shell" into "cradle" ? Mine seems to be pain to remove and insert - too tight
[Touch HD Accessories] malaha:
Slipping shell into the cradle with the screen facing in or protected works fine for me now. When I first got it, it took a while for it to "loosen up". I only have difficulty slipping the shell into the cradle if I try to slip it in with the screen facing out or unprotected. I also notice that the shell is not as "tactile" or "sticky" as it used to be. I find myself being more careful I don't drop it now-a-days.

New Rom

No one can tell you what will work best for you, cause you know exactly what you want out of your phone. The best piece of advice that I or anyone else will give you is to flash a new ROM try for a view days if you like, great if not, then flash another. That is where the fun comes in.

Happy Flashing!

...and the question is ... ?

As you started your thread (and it was your 1st or 2nd post in your xda-life), you must take a good mortgage of it. Is your thread about a doubt on the way you must flash again ? About the differences between HyperDragon and Ultimate-x2 ? About differences between WM6.1 and WM6.5 ? About the best radio and SPL for this new flash ? This thread can give us a lot of juice, if you press it like a lemon. Please go back and post your Radio, SPL, and all your doubts which you think that can be important to be answered to share with other people. That's the way your thread will be useful.

I was missing when bought a Kaiser with PDA-Corner Ultimate and tried to flash another ROM. Lots of doubts assaulted me. I was afraid about bricking my device. Did not know if the radio was the good one, etc. Work about those doubts for you here and this thread will be interesting as many people will post links to "how-to" or "compatibilities"
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] imy300:
firstly sorry if this is the wrong place to as this.

The problem i'm having is that my SD card keeps disappearing from file explorer. sometimes taking it out and putting it back in finds it again, sometimes i have to soft reset. I've tried different roms but still no joy, tried different versions of Miri's and dutthroys.

Is this a problem with my card or something else. I cant narrow it down to anything that might be causing it.

Anyone have any ideas ?

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Some people have had similar issues. They seemed to solve it by formatting the card on a pc.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simcarloc:
I have read that taskkiller is not necessary on Android as the OS will kill off running apps when it needs memory - what are people's thoughts on this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil_UK:
Hmmm...I read somewhere (maybe on here) heard if the App is coded properly that when not in use it will be background so not take up memory.

Not too knowledgable, but in that case would imagine they are acting like a windows service so will be taking up memory somewhere....so perhaps what I read was nonsense :eek:
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simcarloc:
Well, I have stopped killing tasks and guess what - I notice no difference at all! Hero is just as speedy (or slow depending on how you wanna look at it!).

Interesting!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phel21:
Killing truly idle applications wont have significant effect. There are however many applications which appear idle, but still drains resources. An example is Peep, the twitter client, which starts automatically even if there's no twitter account configured. It has some frequent checks that put load on the CPU and thus helps drain power. Killing it adds many hours of standby time.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suisen:
i'm not using any task manager/killer, did try them for a couple of days, can't really tell the difference, except i was wasting time constantly killing apps :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemax:
Ditto... surely there is no need as the OS will kill a unused app if it needs the memory ??? I don't have any problem running any apps one after the other... they just load.

The only lag I get is while the handset starts a widget update, once they are started everything runs slickly.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdyat:
I found it a little slicker without taskiller. Especially in the use of big apps like copilot or documents2go. It seems to be managing itself pretty well.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simcarloc:
Yep. I can report that the phone is working very well without Taskkiller. I have uninstalled it now.

If you are reading this, give it a try for a few days and tell us what you think. You may be pleasantly surprised...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiz:
Ditto - I've removed taskiller so I don't get tempted. Surprise surprise, no problems, no lag, etc. Now mostly this is due to removing the clock and people widget, but memory management seems fine after playing many different games and browsing the internet.

I think a benefit to doing this is that you aren't going to get and bizarre problems caused by killing system processes by accident - ie you won't miss alarms or stop receiving email alerts.
[G1 Accessories] techjosh:
Hey everyone.

I bought a used, broken G1 off ebay and now that I've gotten it rooted & booted I've found that I am missing the longer (80mm) internal antenna cable that connects the motherboard to the UMTS antenna pcb. Without this cable there is no cell service to the phone so right now its pretty much a PDA and I'm carying around my old phone and my G1.

Since I know there are probably a bunch of users on this forum with broken G1's being kept for parts I thought I'd ask if there is anyone willing to part with one of those cables?

I'm in the US (San Diego, CA) and I'll gladly pay any reasonable shipping and "handling" costs...

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I want to ask if HERO can connect to any other device at all. I know that bluetooth is very limited in HERO, but all I can do is pair it with other devices, but not connect. I successfully detect and pair it with my PC and my other PDA, but when I try to search for services , nothing is found, which is strange.

I am aming at internet via bluetooth and I even read in one site that it has PAN profile. But not discovering ANY service I think is strange.

Is there any way for me of having PAN without rooting the device

as in this solution:

or should I wait for android 2.0?

Sorry, but this is not a feature that the new Android OS supports just yet. We are still waiting on an update from Google that adds this function to the Android devices. We have no date on the update just yet, but we really hope it will not be very long.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nokiadashi:
for changing softkeys under the screen,i use keyswop,it works,you may try it.

as for the rest of the screen(suppose you use touchflo 3d skin), calls history,calendar,the clock etc,cannot be tweaked because it's embedded in ROM.

so i dont think you can put anything else(include what you said quick menu icon) in the screen.

So presumably, in a little time, a Galaxy backup will appear. Then i can install it on my Hero and effectively have a new phone all over again, then switch between the OS's as I please, with Nandroid and a rooted phone? :D

Or is it not that easy? :eek:

Thanks

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minogue:
yes its that easy, once you have aported galaxy rom for the HTC Hero you can just install it and if you dont like it you can change back to hero... But nandroid is not meant to be used to switch between Roms just like that... I man yoour saying it in a way that you can change it as many times in a day as you want....

You will loose setting from other os and messages and list goes on...

[General Questions and Answers] terzer:
Hello, recently my micro sd 16gb sandisk memory card got corrupted. i rescued some files, but i can't format it. it says windows was unable to format. my phone don't even recognizes the card and it can't format it. i tried some other software, but no success. maybe it has bad sectors or something. i don't know.

Please help me!

Thank You!
[General Questions and Answers] geok:
Terzer,

Sadly, you'll probably have to get a new one. If you try to get it to work, you'll most likely lose even more data! The same thing happened to me only three weeks ago. My card was at most six months old.

Basically, microSD cards are very delicate. As if by fate, I had just read an article about that right before my card went belly up! My new card even has a notice recommending that the card be inserted and removed as few times as possible, for this very reason.

Given this, and given that, for the most part, when they're in good condition they're very reliable, when you start having problems with a card like this, it's FAR more likely that the card has gone bad in some way.

When mine went bad I tried everything I could think of to get it working again. And I succeeded! Trying all different block sizes, I got it to format in the flash drive on my desktop system.

It died again within 48 hours!

I know these things are expensive. Unfortunately, this one is probably a loss. Sorry! :(

-geo
[General Questions and Answers] terzer:
:( so the damage is physical?

Thank You!
[General Questions and Answers] geok:
There's no way to tell what the problem is. Basically, though, all problems with flash cards are physical in one sense or another. It's extremely unlikely that it's a driver or card reader error if it was working before. It could be a filesystem error, but if you've already tried to re-format it and failed, well, that doesn't really leave much else.

I don't have your original post in front of me. Did you try formatting it in a computer? If not, then you should definitely try that. (You'll need a microSD to full SD adapter or a microSD to USB.) Also, try doing a full format. (In Windows that means not doing a Quick Format.) A Quick Format just tries to create a new File Table. A full format will try to make a new filesystem. I don't know if there's a way to do an actual hardware format. (Actually, I don't believe that has any meaning on a solid state device.)

Anyway, even if you do get it to format successfully, be very careful what you put on it. That's exactly what happened to me. As I said, after finally getting it to format, it died again in less than two days.

This is about all I can tell you to try. (BTW, I'm a system administrator. :)) Basically, and I am really sorry, it's probably dead. I'm guessing they're pretty d@!n expensive in Bulgaria? I know they are here. I almost cried when my first one died!

Although, looking at it in a positive light ;), when I got my first one they only had Class 2 devices. My new Adata card is Class 6. The difference is amazing. Whatever you wind up doing, my suggestion would be to limit how many times you take it in and out of your phone.
[G4] jphuffs:
I have a Cingular Wizard G4 that won't SIM unlock. The motherboard IMEI no. (*#06#) doesn't match the IMEI no. on the housing back. I used Lokiwiz03 to determine the unlock code. I installed a T-Mobile SIM card and nothiing. I then installed a AT&T card, nothing. I installed a very old AT&T card and it connected to the network and I could make a phone call. I then installed a newer AT&T card and nothing. I lastly installed a Cingular card and nothing. WST says that the phone is SIM locked. Why doesn't the unlock window pop-up when I put a different SIM card in and turn it on? How can I force the unlock window to pop-up?
[G4] h34d_hunt3r:
Are you sure it's locked?

About the IMEI mismatch... you can change it using Wizard Service Tool. Try putting the original IMEI and upgrade/downgrade the radio.
[G4] jphuffs:
WST says it is CID locked. When I put in a T-Mobile SIM, it does not try to connect to the network. It does nothing.

The reason for the IMEI mismatch is I put the MB in a new housing.
[G4] jphuffs:
You are absolutely correct in questioning me about the lock situation. Although WST says it is CID locked, I wondered, so I installed a Telnor SIM and it immediately connected to the network. That is why the unlock window would not pop up. WST is not always right. Thanks for forcing me to think.

Why is that for 23 songs they appear as unknown artist/album on my g1 but using itunes or another media player it stats the real info?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mi|enko:
Music files have multiple layers of the ID tags. Chances are, iTunes reads all the layers (pretty sure there's 3 ID3 tags) so if 1 has the data while the others don't , it's still able to read it. The G1 music player might not be able to read the different tags. Personally, I use TagRunner to update all of my musics tags.
