[HD2 General] ftr2k8:
I am going to have to admit that, when I opened the box and powered on the device, I was bouncing up and down with glee. And I still was for days. I stopped bouncing when a) it started hurting and b) some minor niggles reared their heads.

1. When I adjust the volume on the music tab, with music playing, it stutters and does not show the slider. If I lock the device or use a different tab, it's fine.

2. Today, after about a week of use, the much-touted SMS not sending issue struck me. This may be to do with me not trimming my message box - but apparently HTC are working on it and in the meantime I can disable the HTC messaging app and use the basic WinMo one which is still highly functional, and everything works.

These have reduced my enjoyment level a little - I paid £475 for this device and to be fair I expect it to have, at most, very very minor issues, but I still enjoy it, I think it is a marvellous bit of kit and look forward to HTC's fixes addressing everything.
[HD2 General] ftr2k8:
I just saw your comment about praying not to get the SMS issue. Apparently, keeping your message box counts low will help prevent it - but I cannot guarantee it. if it DOES strike, there are solutions in numerous threads - the one I suggest most as it worked for me is disabling HTCs messaging app and using WinMo's own.
[HD2 General] chris_ah1:
Yep, of course not all solutions work because I personally believe that Vodafone SMS is *shiste* service.

Interesting thing is that there are two SMS issues - slow browsing and display - which you can avoid by bringing up menu and closing it.

And messages staying in the outbox is something Ive had with my E65...I merely have to tell the phone to resend them and it goes.

Just to recap solutions I've seen, but not all work for SMS sending:

a) disable htc messaging

b) change to classic view, not conversation

c) set messages to GSM only not GPRS

d) disable 3G/2G switching and stay on GSM.

e) reboot phone and take out battery.

f) get a new vodafone Sim card.

g) get the phone to re-register itself on a new tower.

h) install HTC hotfix and/or later ROMs.

For SMS delayed view:

a) switch to classic view,

b) disable htc messaging

c) get menu up on random message and cancel menu.

d) purge your SMS box.

I must note that My E65 does this automatically - it only keeps a low number of messages in memory and automatically purges old ones. It also soft-resets itself automatically every 24hours. So S60 is not so special either - all mobiles have these issues. at least my E65 SMS not sending is sporadic.

MY HD2

I got my HD2 three weeks ago & loved it when it first booted up. I have had no serious problems with it since except when I tried to update the ROM, it keeps coming up: "not suitable for this pocket pc". :(

Either I have done something wrong or the phone will not update I do not know. So, it ain't broke, so don't fix it is the way to go!
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
You're either:

- Running the ROM update on the device - you can't, you need to run it from a PC with the phone plugged in and in bootloader mode.

- Running the ROM update on a PC but the phone isn't in bootloader mode.

- Running the ROM update on a PC but the update isn't for your serial number. (Try looking at all the ROM updates on the HTC website for your area, i.e. htc.com/uk)

- Running the ROM update for a custom ROM without running HSPL first. (Check the HD2 ROM forum - http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534)
[G1 General] Abolfazl:
So i bought a broken G1 on ebay. The person said they could not downgrade to RC29 so I figured it would be an easy fix.

I turn on the phone and it loads up perfectly. I get to the screen that says "No SIM Card" and then I need his email and password to get passed this which I don't have. I hold HOME + POWER and it goes to the multi-color bootloader. I then try CAMERA + POWER and it loads the bootloader. I put the DREAIMG.nbh file on my FAT32 SD Card (MD5 is correct) then I get this screen/error.

Now whenever I try to power on the phone it goes straight to the bootloader but now I have the RUUNBH flag. Here is what I see

DREA100 PVT 32B RUUNBH
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.26i

SEP 2 2008
[G1 General] evilkorn:
I think you need to reflash the spl (RUUNBH). Then flash the rest, look up the fastboot commands to make it a little eaiser.

But because it fails at the recovery, grab a new recovery image and flash that with fastboot.
[G1 General] Abolfazl:
I cannot get into fastboot. I see the Serial0 screen but nothing happens when I push 'back'

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] httpftp123:
Moving the bug I'm having from another thread to this new one, here it is:

Can somebody confirm if this is just my problem or a ROM bug?

Steps to reproduce:

1) While listening to music using bluetooth

2) Answer an incoming call

3) use the bluetooth headset to pickup phone call

4) Cannot hear any audio nor can the caller hear you talk

I loaded back an android 2.0 rom (jd02 with x3rom 32A patch) and can confirm this is NOT a problem.

I also tried loading back 4.2.5 cyanogen and its a problem there as well.

Anybody can verify with there ROM or have a clue whats going on?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I cant confirm, I dont have the proper bluetooth stuff. have you checked the cyanogen bugtracker?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ma678:
I have a few issues after updating from 4.2.5 without wiping.

1. GPS kept losing signal during navigation.

2. Lost three 888 xxxxxxx call receptions today.

3. My wife complained she heard horrible static noises each time when I changed locations. For example, when I moved from outside to inside my building or I stepped out of my truck.

4. I couldn't listen to my voicemail through GV. FC every time.

The rest work great. The rebooting time is super fast.

Thank you so much, guys.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gleonard3:
I believe I suffer from this issue as well, or at least something related. This was also happening on 4.2.5, but was perfect on my previous ROM, MyHero.

In my case I use a mini USB Y-Splitter adapter in the car: one end goes to the mini-USB cigarette lighter charger, the other to a 3.5mm jack for the AUX-IN in my car stereo. This way I can listen to Pandora or whatever over the stereo. If I answer a call in this setup the other party cannot hear me. Similarly I cannot speak any Google searches, or use Shazam, or anything that requires my microphone to work. I was hoping this release would fix it. Evidently not.

As stated, worked great with MyHero. *sigh*

No one else could confirm this as an issue before, so I thought I was alone... maybe still am...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sleepymatt:

I listen to music in my car audio which is connected to my phone via BT (music from my phone). When someone calls i just pick up call and talk through built in car system. After the call, music just continues playing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nmesisca:
they 'adapt' to the roms for which they are written, allowing 32a owners to flash 32b roms on their devices.

you dont really have a choice on which port file to install. there is only one (generally) for each version of a rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Pick the one that corresponds to the version of CM you are running. Assuming you want to use the newest cm (version 4.2.6), use the 4.2.6 port file
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Preeat:
I tried installing this ROM last night on my Rogers HTC Magic (32A) and everything went fine. I got into the set up where it asks me to log in to my Google account but when I did that it said there was no connection available. I saw that the 3G symbol at the top right was missing so I thought maybe I needed to enable 3G in some sort of settings. So I skipped the log in procedure but couldn't find anything to turn 3G on. I guess with this ROM, it simply wasn't detecting the 3G network for some reason.

So I reverted back to the Rogers default ROM and it detected the 3G network right away and I was browsing marketplace/internet with no problems.

Anybody know why I could have ran into such a problem when trying to use this ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Sounds like an APN issue. For whatever reason the APN list never seems to work for me either. You need to manually enter the information in Settings>Wireless Controls>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names

Instructions that worked for me are here:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
You need to completely remove the installed maps application and then install the one from the market.

It worked for me when I did these commands:

adb remount
adb shell rm /system/sd/app/*Maps*
adb shell rm /system/sd/app/*maps*
adb shell rm /system/sd/dalvik-cache/*Maps*
adb shell rm /system/sd/dalvik-cache/*maps*

adb uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps

For sure. Hacked navigation for all!

Edit: Now that I think about it, I can include it in /system/app but I dont think that will work if people have all of the old maps crap on there phones. Its really finicky and requires that every trace of maps be deleted before the new version will work. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.

Hi,

I'm currently running the Rom MyHero with all the HTC development like the HTC sense and also HTC sync. I would like to upgrade towards Android 1.6 and i'm tempted by this version.

My simple question: I assume that HTC sync is not in the Cyanogenmod so how do synchronise contacts from outlook to your Saphire ?

Thanks

Ced
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rickytenzer:
The easiest way to do it would probably be to export your contacts to CSV (comma separated values) and use Google contacts to sync. Google contacts (http://www.google.com/contacts) allows you to import contacts from CSV. Once they're imported, simply make sure your Google account is being synchronized on your phone and have it sync your contacts. To make your life easier, you can add the new contacts to the "Starred in Android" group and only have that group show up in your contacts list on the phone.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daniel@rimspace.net:
Using BFS? The upstream kernel developers don't think a great deal of it; the performance isn't nearly as stable as the stock scheduler on any load.

So, while it might be better at some things, other tasks will drive it to perform worse — and I don't know about you, but I don't feel like I know enough about the fine details of process scheduling and Android to know if it is going to trigger those bad spots or not.

(I do know that BFS has triggered them before, though, when compcache was in use. Just sayin')

Quick question before I try this rom out.

Ive been running eugenes Eclair-rom now for some time on my Magic (32a). One of the wonderful features of 2.x-rom:s are the ability to run multiple gmail accounts.

What version of code is CM based on? 1.5, 1.6 or 2.x? Ie, is the multiple accounts supported in CM?

Thnx.

It has some eclair effect icons etc. but it is 1.6 based...so no multiple google accounts yet.

Hi! I used to have the option "send with bluetooth" on the astro file manager when i has got Cyanogen 4.2.7.1. (Very good rom and fast).

Slow for me, BUT it should stay at the ANDROID (or Enoch) screen, NOT the carrier's screen. Did you also flash bcrook's 4.2.8 port file AFTER the 4.2.8.1 update?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] n0-0ne:
Ya I did exactly the following (I was running an really old version of cyanogenmod).

NEW INSTALL (ie. never installed CM 4.1.99 or greater before):

Download HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83

(http://www.androidspin.com/downloads...ooted_base.zip)

Download CyanogenMod 4.2.8

(http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/upda...2.8-signed.zip)

Download the Kernel Port file (see below)

Copy all three .zip files to your SD and reboot in recovery mode (press Home+Power at the same time or fastboot into your recovery)

Do a "Wipe data/factory reset"

Do a "Wipe SD: ext partition" ** (see below)

(it is recommended to wipe your Apps2SD partition for this release)

Apply Zip: HTC_ADP_1.6_DRC83_rooted_base.zip

Apply Zip: update-cm-4.2.8-signed.zip

Apply Kernel Port Zip: bc-4.2.8-ebi1-signed.zip

Reboot

I tried running adb lolcat but it just sits there saying - waiting for device -

I'm not sure where else to go with this cause I can't mount the sd card to put a different update.zip on it.

EDIT: Fixed, thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
The CM/Enoch/whatever screen will take forever. Cyanogen added zipalign to the boot process and it takes a while. If you are ever stuck at the carrier logo, something is wrong with the kernel. It should only be there for seconds, ie. if its been a minute something is wrong.

The best thing to do is to reboot back into recovery and reflash the CM ROM and the port file. If that doesnt work, push the files again using 'adb' and make sure to confirm md5sums. This is another reason to use the cm-updater method - it confirms md5sums.

ALWAYS NANDROID.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I tried, sorry. I couldnt get it to work. I have no idea why. I am very bitter towards BFS and will no longer even attempt to make a BFS kernel, well maybe, but probably not. We'll see...I apologize.
