Hi

Im new to this forum.

I flashed my Hd2 and instatlled OzRom for some reason wi-fi wasnt working so i turned it off and now i cant get passed the start HTC in green with white background what to do?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Richy99:
have you hard reset it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bobsbbq:
What Radio do you have? You must have a TMOUS Radio with these newer builds. 2.08.50.08.02 etc.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] roger7:
dude, simply dont panic ! i faced some thing similar but now i feel like a pro when it comes to flashing new ROMs. This forum is Great !

Well..ok let me come to the point, that is make sure u have HSPL.(Read the thread in Rom Development forum). Now simply connet ur device to ur comp/laptop and use active sync. make sure ur device is set on active sync. Now simply have ur New ROm ready to flash/install on ur device by doubble clicking the RRU_signed.exe(something of this sort, cooks keep it any name they wish to but its an .exe file for sure be it any name.) and follow the on screen instructions that u get. and there u go ! have ur device back again with ROM of choice.

Important Info:

1] u can download any ROm of ur choice from the rom development forum here on xda.

2] make sure u hard reset ur device after flashing the new rom.

3] Dont forget to backup ur data (for noobs.)

4] Go through the Rom Development forum for some great tutorials and guidance.

Hope this helps. n Congo for ur new device !

Good luck !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bobsbbq:
Well you got most of that right. But it is very important that new users understand that if you flash from a factory ship ROM such as 1.48 or 1.66 and you try to flash one of the newer cooked ROM's based on 2.07 or above Base it will freeze at the HTC screen if you don't upgrade the Radio first. 2.07 and above need the TMOUS radio 2.07.50 or 2.08.50.08.02 etc or it will not work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] donalgodon:
Just a suggestion, and this is not directed at anyone here....

I wish there were some way to make it a "rule" that posters not assign their issue directly to any particular ROM, since 99.999% of the time, it is not the fault of the ROM, but the user him/herself.

Postings may give users a bad impression of a particular ROM, or the flashing process in general, when in reality, it is an easy process once it is understood.

I'm running OzROM, for example, and I never had any issues with it, because I understood these things by reading extensively beforehand....and trying.

I never assumed that any of my previous difficulties were the fault of any particular ROM, but rather something that I was not doing correctly. I have found that this is invariably the case, and I just do not want any Chef to get a bad rap because of user error, or for someone to think that flashing a cooked ROM will destroy their phone, or something like that.

Just my 2 cents. Hope we can address this as a community somehow.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bobsbbq:
I agree that comments should be kept in the ROM thread. But considering this was the guys first post, well you know. This happens all the time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jerrymc2:
been using mightyrom impact for a while. the os is wm 6.5.3.

i find that mp3 or wma ringtones for incoming calls work just fine until you launch wmplayer. once the wmplayer is launched, any mp3 or wma ringtones for incoming calls fail to work.

If you go to phone-menu-option-sounds, you'll find that when a wma file is selected, it shows "the file is either interrupted or unavailable"; when an mp3 file is select, it plays no sound...

the only way to make them work again is to do a soft reset.

those problem will not happen if you choose a wav file.

what's more, the htcvolumecontrol.dll is updated to 2.1.1922, the former version built in the previous taskbar.cab fail to work. when you press the volume keys, all you get is the original ugly control interface.

bugs also take place when using G-Alarm. it makes no sound when wmplayer is launched.

Hello! new to N1 forum, could any1 tell me if its even possible to connect via wifi to an ad hoc network. Im using CyanogenMod-5 rom which finds network but fails to connect. any help wld be great. sorry if this is the wrong place for my question.

regards bevan
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soloxp:
Yes, you'll have to edit the (tiwlan.ini0) and (wpa_supplicant.conf). When I get to night...i'll try to post what you need to edit.

I just got my N1 today and will playing with it :D...so it might be around 10-11 CST to night when I post back with the info.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soloxp:
Here a quick type up

going to system/etc/wifi and edit tiwlan.ini...do a seach for WiFiAdhoc and it should take to

WiFiAdhoc = 0 and change the 0 to 1...right ather WiFiAdhoc put

dot11DesiredSSID = CARPC what ever you want...as you can see I use (carpc) so I can connect to my carpc.

dot11DesiredBSSType = 0 this will stay 0 so it all should look like this

WiFiAdhoc = 1

dot11DesiredSSID = CARPC

dot11DesiredBSSType = 0

Now for wpa_supplicant.conf add this to very bottom

ssid="CARPC"

key_mgmt=NONE

mode=1

}

If you still need help just post back in here....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bevan1971:
thanks

soloxp hope ur enjoying the new phone & yes it seem I need a little more help with this. now as Im new to android I've never actually edited setting before. I found setting/etc/wifi but could u please point me a tutorial on how I edit this file. thankyou for ur time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soloxp:
I just check CM N1 Roms and it look like the N1 wifi is setting are different then the G1. I want be rooting my N1 for about 2weeks...that way I know it's working good before I root it. Sorry I can't help you on this right now.

Hi, I changed my settings in wifi with yours using win rar (maybe that's not how to do it?) but didn't work sadly. when trying to flash told me file was bad. should I mod this file using some other programe? not sure. am a noob but willing to learn how this is done thanks again!

I did learn something today so not a total loss. if any1 has any other ideas would be glad to here.

In order to obtain an IP address automatically. You need to be running a DHCP server which I doubt you are.

have kind of given up on the ad hoc thing for now but thanks for advice guys. Im on 3g mobile broadband and recently got a 3g router which fixed my problem. when I leave the house and require internet I just use 3g sim card works fine so no need for ad hoc at the moment.

AdHoc - unsuccesfully

Hello all.

I have the same problem with adhocing my N1 and wireless adapter D-Link DWA-150.

I used to check all the "solutions" of this problem (wpa_supplicant. conf, rooting, new SSID...) but it seems not usefull for me.((

To soloxp - there is not any tiwlan.ini in N1. At least in CyanogenMod 5.0.6.N1.

What can I do more to connect my wireless adapters?..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrandMstrBud:
Has anyone figured this out? I am running CyanogenMod 5.0.7.1 and I do have the wpa_supplicant.conf file but I'm not sure what to put in it as far as editing it.

http://www.geek.com/articles/mobile/10-minutes-of-flash-player-10-1-on-a-nexus-one-20100222/

Absolutely kills the battery within 4 minutes the Battery was Depleted from Half to red line......I just knew everytime I saw flash 10.1 running on droid or nexus that the battery Icon was always empty, I wasnt too hard on the Reviewers, since I simply thought that they was using the phone all day and forget to charge it, (Benefit of the doubt) , Now this categorically proves my deep suspicions, Even though the gpu is utilised to do the hardware acceleration its still a power hog, Steve Jobs was bang on!!!, and I never owned an Iphone and was planning to get the nexus one!!!! flash 10.1 has huge power envelope problem..PERIOD, thats why they will not release it till later on 3rd quarter it needs alot of work
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
Half way

Even though it displays what looks like half charge, its in fact lower. Your conclusion is wrong, as the point the indicator turns red is set to just below that half full indicator.

A true test will be to read actual battery levels while playing a video or heavy animation.

I look forward to seeing real power consumption tests, like viewing a youtube video via flash vs a stand alone video player or web browser via Ogg Theora.

Power consumption will vary with the app and video quality as well, so theres a lot more to it than stating Flash his a power hog.

PS: If you believe what you wrote, by an iPhone instead of a Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] Blimblim:
There are also cuts in the video, so the recording session itself could have been quite a bit more than 4 minutes.
[Nexus One General] krohnjw:
Hey now, let's not let the facts get in the way of a good rant.

As any N1 user knows the battery graphic doesn't display battery consumption like you're used to with Windows Mobile where looking at the graphic gave you a quick and accurate representation of how much battery is left.

Although I would be interested is seeing how one would actually drain half of the battery in 4 minutes - that would be quite a feat. (For reference when I tried to kill the battery some time ago it took over 2 hours to drain 60% steaming a 3Gb download on wifi, on an endless call on speakerphone while steaming music and playing full volume via slacker radio).
[Nexus One General] ikeabuchi:
I love the nexus one and wouldnt buy the iphone, Why show a a battery indicator that doesn't show true usage quantitatively, no logic, I am looking at the concurrent time by the clock, not the cut in the scene, unless they have a a wormhole nearby, If your assumption is correct then my suspicion are put to rest but every single time i see flash 10.1 running hardware accelerated flash, the battery is nearly DEAD!, please convince me otherwise,(please) maybe I am overly paranoid about battery life, They do need to try a Test with full battery power, I agree on that logic.

Also would bad coding of java sites eat code, memory management for example, i am not here to disprove any of you but, I want my phone to last more than ten minutes on a flash site........if you think i am being unfair check every flash 10.1 demo on Youtube or otherwise and look at the battery meter!
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I have a feeling we are all in for a big treat when Flash arrives.

Lets talk embedded video. For that, flash is just a container stream for the video payload. The codec on your phone/computer does all the work. If the N1 can play 2hrs of AVI's or Mpegs, then so it will be for YouTube as well. I look forward to being able to watch embedded videos.

Even if it sucks the battery dry, I rather have it when needed than not at all.

I want to make the choice and not let some crack pot CEO make it for me.
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I understand your point, but I wouldn't loose sleep until we are all flubbing around with dead batteries :)
[Nexus One General] krohnjw:
The battery icon is really poor IMO at showing actual usage. Perhaps they designed it that way on purpose, but having used WM for the last 3 years it doesn't appear to give me a useful representation of the battery life remaining or used. A shortcut to battery info is needed to be sure for me.

The clock in the scenes runs from 3:59 until well after it ticks to 4:05 (when the battery turns orange). The vid then runs to 4:07 another 2+ minutes until the video ends where the clock doesn't appear again. So we're looking at around 10 minutes of flash usage and around 6 from when it's the last tick of green it appears until it hits orange. Unfortunately there's no real quantitative values to show how much battery was used.

Poor coding of flash site themselves shouldn't be huge unless they are registering a boat load of events and doing a lot of processing on those - not to the extent that it mauls battery life at least. The N1 has enough memory free - with a highmem kernel - that i can't see these sites really causing a lot of pages to have to be swapped or memory freed as a result of loading the page, although it's possible. But this isn't something that's going to kill a battery in 10 minutes.

I'd say reserve judgement until there's a real 10.1 out there we can test and get some quantitative results. I don't think Adobe would be pushing a product to market that essentially would kill the phone within a 10-20 minute time frame, that would just make them look bad and piss people off.

My guess is Apple's big beef with flash is that they would lose control of content on the phones themselves (games and apps) as a flash portal would then allow anyone to circumvent their approval process and app control rather than power consumption.

Unless Adobe is doing things in a highly inefficient manner then they aren't going to be doing more GPU operations than any other graphically intensive game - there will be some CPU overhead associated with flash and the on the fly translations it has to do, but as long as this is optimized for a mobile device you shouldn't see a massive drain compared to other "heavy" games.
[Nexus One General] renboy2:
Oh wow....

Flash 10.1 looks SO much better then I thought it would... simply amazing...

Craving for the update...

(oh, and about the TC's silly battery comment - the battery only went down a single 'step' in the video, for all we know, it could have gone down from 31% to 30% during all that time).
[Nexus One General] polo79:
first, i would rather have the opportunity to use flash than NOT have it. even if it drained my battery. and second, we are talking about a product that is not coming for quite some time so maybe we should withold our opinions till then. that nexus three really sux by the way.....
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Even if OP wasnt clueless and this was true.

I dont think people are getting the point. Once flash is widely available on Android it ownt be about viewing current content. Itll be about how great Flash will be when optimized for mobile platform. Just like many websites immediately started having PSP/Ipod freindly videos so will sites start offering mobile freindly Flash.

The games and videos will be much more fluid on it than anything you can pluck now.
[Nexus One General] TitoXx:

[Nexus One General] lightforce:

[Nexus One General] dahui9:
I'm sorry but there is no possible way without making your phone a frying pan to drain the nexus battery in 4 minutes even from half drain...

I mean anyone with basic electrical knowledge knows the by product of power comsumption is heat no matter what we do. If Flash was to drain a battery in 4 minutes, you wouldn't barely be able to touch the phone from the amount of heat produced.

That being said I still think flash is a power hog, but that's why they keep refining it for mobile devices.

-Charlie
[Nexus One General] crazy talk:
agreed, you would have to be sucking down 10,800MAH's to drain half of the N1's battery in 4 minutes.

and at that kind of discharge rate would just about instantly destroy the battery.
[Nexus One General] rori~:
wow, that´s a nice vid...very promising!..just this and FM radio and my Nex1 is perfect :cool:
[Nexus One General] aniteshj:
I hope people realize, that the Flash is just a container for the .mp4 or whatever file that happens to be uploaded, into the Flash container...

So the battery life you get out of watching videos on a nexus one, or iphone, or etc. is the same battery life you would get out of watching videos. However it just so happens that to watch a youtube video you would also be chewing through 3G data and that would kill battery a bit quicker.

But not in 4 minutes.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Wow, very smooth video! :cool: Hope the update shows up soon...
[Nexus One General] kwanying:

[Nexus One General] reid-o:
I'm coming for a Nokia N900, and I can tell you that having Flash is pretty cool on a mobile device, and it's not a small deal.

It really gives the desktop experience, or at least it completes it. Although I couldn't stand the UI on the N900, I did think the browsing experiencing was the best ever, minus a capacitive display.

I'd say that Flash is a big deal, and I hope it's just a matter of time before we get it.

I don't really see how the battery can be affected that much by its integration. The n900 has a slower processor, and I found the battery life to be on par with my old iphone.
[Nexus One General] lightforce:
I thought the flash on the n900 was software accelerated and not hardware?
[Nexus One General] SilentMobius:
If you want to know what battery life will be like while using flash perform this simple test:

Download any opengles game from the android market and play it.

It is simply not possible for software to drive the cpu any harder than 100% and most opengles games will do just that.

Flash is not magic, it cannot drain your battery unless you are using it. Geez
[Nexus One General] ikeabuchi:
It seems like the way Adobe are managing Flash 10.1 release, I look for it to be released around October or November 2010, So i wouldnt want anyone to get their hopes up.

The Video you saw in relation to the response of the battery life issue, was not Flash 10.1 but more like Flashlite.

The video wasn't smooth at all, But was stuttering and dropped more frames than a Drunk in an Opticians. I have a feeling that this is going to be a big fail, But you got to give it to Adobe at least they tried, But the goal post was set way too high,There too much fragmentation in Android to meet there,

(Theoretical) Goal. When released be sure to carry an extra Battery or Two:)
