[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] djwinn:
I have searched this forum, found some Sync issues but nothing that relates directly to my issue. If I just didn't see it, point me in the right direction please!

I have a TILT2, stock ROM, I have made some reg mods for text msg notification, Data speeds & auto rotate via G-Sensor. My phone was syncing perfectly fine for a few weeks and I have the USB to PC "Enable Faster data sync" unchecked.

I lost sync a few days ago, I rebooted phone & computer figuring that would fix it as it has in the past only to find I only get charge light, no data connection. I don't hear the bum-bum audio indication that it is connected, and the device does not show under Device Manager nor mobile device manager and my connection methods include USB & Bluetooth.

Here is the caveat, I can sync to the computer through my bluetooth on my PC and I do hear the audio tone connection. I figure a reg change affected this, but I reviewed my changes, nothing dealing with USB, and I even reverted back to a Reg backup from prior to the problem occuring - no luck. I have swapped USB cords, nothing has helped.

Does anyone know of registry setting that would disable my USB sync? Do I have a defunct device?

Assistance appreciated - Dan

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] djwinn:
Thanks for the link - I had found this before, and it really deals with no connection at all. I ran through most of the post, nothing helped. Considering I have sync via Bluetooth, it is not firewall.

Looking at restoring my computer to sometime last week, see if an update that came through caused this.

I'll post more when I done the restore.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] djwinn:
OK - Update. I restored my PC to prior to issue, no luck. I disabled my security suite, no luck. I have tested the phone on another PC, it acts the same. communicates via bluetooth, but only charges via USB.

I am starting to work my way through the phone registry, is there any specific setting I should be looking for?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
I'm just going to throw in a suggestion here: have you tried using a different cable? Often times the cable is the bad piece of the connection, but people don't even think to switch it out with another one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] iridium21:
And as well as the cable, have you tried a hard reset on your phone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Ferdi_H:
same problem!

i have the same problem. went to htc and they told me sorry you have a 3rd party rom so we are not going to help you.

yes i have treid 4 other pc's and 3 difrent cables and no luck.

please help!!!!!

I had the USB port go out on my TP2. I used the SD card to flash the sock hard SPL and then used the SD card to flash the stock T-Mobile ROM. Then I sent it in for warranty exchange. I suggest that you do this and then seek help from HTC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Ferdi_H:
cool can you perhaps help wit how to do it? please?

same problem here and the problem that the battery was draining even when the phone was off. call htc and the next morning the ups was at mine house to get the phone. 7 days later the phone was back with new motherboard. a had started a tread in general of this problem
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] iridium21:
Yep, mine too. I had to send it back to HTC UK for repair after the USB socket stopped working - came back with a new mainboard.

It looks as if it's prone to failure as I'm careful with connecting and disconnecting cables and it looks as if this one is already starting to go again! :mad:

Can't fail HTC UK Repair for it's great service though...

Hello

after several posts with Customer Support of HTC and with full and yes full explaining exactly this problem with auto scan, I get this answer

=============================

Thank you for contacting HTC ,

Dear Mr. *****,

Regarding the issue you're facing with the handset, kindly follow the instructions below:

Kindly confirm that you have followed the instructions below to save the channels:

To save FM stations as presets

1. Tune in to the desired FM frequency, and then tap Presets.

2. On the Presets list, tap that appears on the desired preset number where you want to save the FM station.

Tip Tap to remove a favorite FM station from the list.

3. When done, tap OK.

To listen to a preset FM station

On the FM Radio screen, tap the station preset button. If the station preset button is not on the screen, tap Presets, scroll through the list of preset stations, and then tap the station you want to listen to.

If you've followed the steps above and still the issue persists, please perform the troubleshooting below:

1) Kindly Check if the device has enough Free Memory to run (at least 5MB)

Please go to : Start> Settings> Menu> All settings>System> Memory,

If there is less than 5 MB free in each category, you need to free up some memory by removing files from the device or by shutting down programs that are not actively in use.

To Free up the program memory

Please go to : Start> Settings> Menu> All settings>System > Task manager> Stop All.

Free up the Storage memory

Please go to : Start> Setting> Menu> All settings>System tab> Managed Programs. Remove programs.

Once memory has been freed up, kindly re-test.

2) Please check if this issue has occurred after using any 3rd party applications. If yes, please remove the 3rd party software and retest the device.

3) Kindly perform a Soft reset to the handset by removing the back cover and pressing the reset button.

Incase any of the troubleshooting above doesn’t solve the issues you’re facing with your device kindly perform the following:

Please backup all data on the device by synchronizing to a computer, My phone application, or using a data backup program using a memory card, afterwards, perform the Cold-boot (Hard-Reset) and retest the device.

To perform a Hard Reset:

3. Start>Settings>Security>Factory data reset

4. Press 1234 and press yes

Caution: this process will erase all the information from the phone memory

=========================

and that is the solution, don't use auto scan because there is no auto scan with some devices

any suggestion

FM radio...

In Switzerland, everything's fine.

But I'm searching for another FM radio tuner (free of course) to replace the poor native that comes with HD2. Before I was using Power Radio on Blackstone but with Leo it doesn't work.

Does anyone know a good FM Radio (not Internet) for my little (I mean giant !) Leo ?

Hello all,

I've been trying to figure out where my problem is, and it seems I have hit a wall. I have the most recent version of the android SDK for linux, have added the tools folder path to bash, and have added a udev rule for android.

Whenever I try to run any commands from /tools, I get this message :"bash: /home/aaron/android/android-sdk-linux/tools/adb: Permission denied"(replace "adb" with any other command in /tools)

I have tried su, sudo, and actually logging on as root, none of these make a difference.

Any help is appreciated.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxchargerxxx:
Hi,

I'm running Rogers/Dream rooted, CM4.2.3.1/CMRecovery 1.4 with 2GB SD

I guess I have two questions and apologize if they're answered elsewhere...I've pored through the forums but haven't found any definitive answer...

I just bought a nice 8GB class6 SD and want to replace my current 2GB.

I need to partition the new card for apps2sd:

Can I partition it from my regular linux box (ie. plug it into my linux PC and use cfdisk/fsprogs to create the required partitions) or do i need to do it within the phone OS (ie adb)?

I need to move all of my stuff from the current SD to the new one:

Can I plug the current SD into my linux box and copy the contents of the FAT/ext parttitions to the new SD?

OK....three questions...

I would like to upgrade to the latest CM:

What happens to all of my apps and other stuff when I flash the new CM?

Any guidance is sincerely appreciated!

Thanx

M
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxchargerxxx:
Yes and yes

Partitioned the new SD while plugged in to my linux box.

Mounted FAT and ext4 from my old SD.

Tarred the contents from the two old partitions.

Untarred to the new (freshly partitioned/formatted) SD.

Worked fine.

I still haven't been able to find out what exactly happens to my settings and applications, contacts....etc. when I flash from CM4.2.3.1 to the latest. Do I have to re-install all my apps? Are all my settings gone? If so, what is the best backup method to allow restore of apps and settings?

Thanks

M
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sockpuppet4:
As long as your ext partition was copied to the new card with no corruption, your new rom will pick them up and start running them. Your contacts will be updated with sync. And the settings may possibly need to be redone if you have to wipe when installing the new rom (which is probably a good idea anyhow.)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxchargerxxx:
cool...thanx

The HTC Pure has a built-in accelerometer that automatically changes the screen orientation from portrait to landscape when you rotate the phone. It works great for websites, email, photos, and video, but not for 3rd party apps like Google Maps and Facebook.

Is there any way to lock the screen orientation, so it stays on landscape?

[General Questions and Answers] WiredAnim:
you may want to look at "google bookmarks assister2" its a free app that will sync you google bookmarks. Now it doesn't sync them with a browser app it will show the bookmarks in that application and you can launch them from there and it does give folders so it isn't to bad. I had some trouble getting it to sync correctly but after I did it worked pretty nice. Hope this helped good luck.
[General Questions and Answers] thefunkygibbon:

It would be really nice to sync the bookmarks from Chrome with the Android browser. Will look in the market..
[General Questions and Answers] jakelauer:
Have you tried Xmarks? It's not free (you have to pay a $1/m subscription fee to get the Android app to let you login. see: http://buy.xmarks.com/premium.php), but it will automatically sync your bookmarks to Android, as well as between computers and browsers, and it stores them all online.

I'd love to try chromemarks, but I fear giving that many permissions to an app, that should be a stock feature. :/

I'm sure in time I'll just do it.

questions:

does it sync folders as well?

and does it just show up in the browser bookmarks, or do you have to click the app icon or whatever?
[General Questions and Answers] sohanlon07:

Hey community,

I am currently not under contract with any provider…at the very least I want to give each provider a solid look before signing a new contract. Since I value the input of this community so much I am interested to see your thoughts. I don’t need help choosing a phone…also I am in the USA so for the purpose of this thread I am not interested in how the services would be rated worldwide.

Please add a vote to the poll…please don’t just pick the provider you are currently with but rather who you would choose if you had the chance…if anyone has relevant info please post it. My needs are simple…data and voice…coverage and customer service are very important. Let’s not turn this into a forum to bash providers…that is not my interest…if you have a chip on your shoulder please express it elsewhere…

I have added the top national carriers to the poll.

Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] Phuckinup:
metro now owned by T-mobile

I went out today during my day off and seen what was out there to offer. Shopping for a family plan with at least 3 lines, I have a buddy and his wife where I stay maybe 1 week a month who haven't had phones and need them (have kids etc). I couldn't find even close to a better deal than what Metro T-mobile offered me in the store. First I'd like to say that going into a cell store is most generally pointless, because you will get a better deal 90% of the time going online to shop phone plans. However this was certainly an exception.

I was coming from Boost, and wanting to port my number over. Porting over from another company will usually get you a slightly better deal. They have a current (4 for 100) promotion at the metro/t-mobile dealer. That seemed to be a decent price for a family plan. We all have fairly new, decent phones already that can be carrier unlocked fairly easily. So I asked if I would need to purchase SIM cards which seems to be the norm, I was figuring 100 for the plan, then probably 25 a piece for activation/sim cards etc... Then i was kinda shocked.

She then said since I'm porting over from another carrier that I'll get a new phone (up to 240.00usd) for myself, AND each additional line. There will be a 15 dollar activation fee for each line.

So I'll be at around 180.00 out the door. That includes: unlimited talk, text, and unlimited data with no throttling. And the phones I have to choose from don't suck. I'm still deciding between.

LG Stylo 4 (we already have 3 in the house, they are decent midrange phones)

LG Stylo 5 (another gig of ram, slightly better glass, and android 9)

Samsung a10e

Samsung a20

Moto g7 power

Granted, all of metro's phones seem to have a ton of bloatware on em... but i can't pass this deal up because the best part is: NO CONTRACT

I'm probably going to be selling 3 stylo 4's on swappa
