[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legend221:
Someone mentioned a while ago it was possible a server outage in your area at the time of d/l.

Rooting is definitely the way to go. Stock is soo blah and dull, lol.

To each their own though. The point is rocking the android...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] elijahblake:
I'm an AT&T subscriber and i've been waiting on the Nexus one or compatible device.

I really don't know which is better between the nexus and the desire, but I know I do like the Physical buttons and the optical trackpad on the desire. I'm just not sure I want the Sense UI over Android.

Does the Sense UI still allow animated backgrounds and have all the features that vanilla Android has?

My main concern is the fact that it seems to take manufacturers with UI over Android a while to upgrade to the latest Version of Android.

So what do you guys think the best choice will be? And how hard will it be to remove Sense off the Desire and make it Vanilla Anroid? Will it then get the OTA updates just like the NExus One?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bunu:
Yes someone can make a stock android 2.1 rom for the desire. HTC SENSE UI has everything that stock android has except (correct me if I'm wrong) the new launcher.

In every htc sense device you can just turn off sense and just use stock android so no problem there.

The device won't get major updates from google (like OS upgrades) but it might get minor updates (like 3G fixes, bug fixes, newer flash)

Just so that you know Sense UI is android except with a skin, like sense on the hd2.

I would get the Desire (you get both stock and sense ui, the desire has more RAM then the nexus one, the desire looks much better and sleeker.)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trevorwhopkins:
Agreed. Couple points:

1. I own a Nexus. It's very good. I'm a WinMo guy and it was good enough to convert me to a phone with no keyboard.

2. I'ld get the desire. Its almost like a 2nd gen N1. Takes away most common faults: bad network coverage, problems with capacitive buttons, vanilla interface.

3. Furthermore, Sense is great. Coming from an HTC WinMo phone I reeeaeaally missed Sense. Android clocks look cheesy while sense looks classy. There is now a dedicated phone button on the screen. My number one complaint was I hate the way iphones find contacts to call them. It's like 4 clicks and a ton of scrolling. Android is like that. But with Sense on, Sense dialer is a smart dialer. Just start typing their name on dialpad (dad = 323) and it quickly finds the number.

4. Although sense can be turned off, its not "just" a launcher. Its also a dialer, a contact app, an entire new homescreen with 7 screens and specialized htc widgets preprogrammed into them, with saveable custom homescreens called "scenes." New weather app, new app drawer with no 3d effects. Also, Sense ("Rosie") is said by Rom chiefs to be built deep into the "framework" of Android, which is why they sadly havent just ported the apps to stock yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] elijahblake:
thanks guys, Looks like the Desire is the best choice then... Now I just hope that it really comes to AT&T. And SOON!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] elijahblake:
i wonder if at&t will screw up the desire like they did with the backflop?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] grainysand:
Brickflop, you mean. ;) But I wouldn't be surprised if the Desire gets the same treatment.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] tmo_mdawiza:
Hi There,

I have a T-Mobile MDA (US version), I believe it's called a Vario.

I've been researching on how to unlock it to use with other carriers. I think I have a problem since the start screen shows the following:

IPL: 2.26

SPL: 2.26

GSM: 02.25.11

OS: 2.26.10.2

I've attached an image of the start screen.

How do I unlock? What version of Lokiwiz etc do I use?

Do I have to down grade first to lower versions of IPL/SPL etc?

Could someone please help me.

Thank You very much.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ultraprimeomega:
Read the Software upgrading thread, and there should be stickys there.

The best thing to do is read, no one is going to do it for you, your are the one that is going to unlock your phone

Oh and boost mobile is IDEN and CDMA only so you wont have any luck on that the wizard is GSM only
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] tmo_mdawiza:
Hey ultraprimeomega ,

Thank you for your reply.

I did read through all the threads.. it was very confusing.

From what I know, if I use the version of Lokiwiz that everyone uses my MDA will brick.

Thus I'm trying to find what version I can use with my IPL: 2.26 / SPL: 2.26 phone.

I believe MetroPCS will be able to give me a SIM for my GSM MDA.

I'm handing the MDA to a friend who wants to move from a contract to a month to month service due to her financial situation.

In any case, I want to be able to unlock the phone before I give it up.

I am reading up, but if you happen to know which, please do let me know it'll cut down my search time and ambiguity a lot.

Thank You.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ultraprimeomega:
First thing is that you do have a G3 device(best version i think no draw backs or limitations)

Go here and read all of it, i just read it and seems overkill, but just read

when i did it, it was easy to read posts because most were just noobs not retarded

so after a few years this place has more post that are pointless and the good post are in archive maybe

Faria, Loki, Dr. Putt, molski...and before M$ told us to remove the roms off the FTP good old days........lol

You seem like a noob so tell you what just pim me if you have a question and i will reply asap

because the post is confusing even for me
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rtunner:
I have the same device, when I unlocked it the IPL didn't changed (2.17) but the SPL gone to 3.08, there's no way for me to change that IPL...
[General Topics] jacobgong:
So I have a SAMSUNG Omnia II, if you didn't know it's an awesome phone with the worst drivers possible, therefore making it the most laggy phone on the planet dispute its mid-high end 800Mhz ARM11 CPU with "dedicated graphics".

So I just heard that there is this special version of NaviComputer for this model which would support it's built-in compass, but you can't download it unless you use the Samsung PC or phone software which I do not have. You can download the PC software but it is only available from the UK, and it's a GPU accelerated 150MB all-in one app with iTunes like capability and video editor.

So I downloaded this huge software and tried to get the app, but it says the device I have is not supported, well I guess it's because I have the Bell Canada version of the phone. which means I won't be able to install any Apps.

I didn't wanna give up so I downloaded this app, and I managed to find the directory it's saved in, it's an .app file. But then I found it's actually almost the same thing as the microsoft .cab so I managed to extract the files from this .app file. Then I spend like an hour to find a cab compressor which was made back in 2001, what an antique. I compressed it back into a standard microsoft .cab amd placed it into my phone.

god I was so happy that it actually installed perfectly but when I tried to open it it says you don't have the freakin licence! I am so close! I can see the software interface with a warning message infront of it! COME ON!

This is just plain stupid, first of all this is a freeware, why would you check for license on a freeware? plus the compass functions won't actually work on another phone like the HD2 anyway right?

and I mean come on, look at your situation here, you're not Apple with 140,000 or something apps available and holding 80% of market share. Samsung you have exactly 34 apps available, and 0.01% market share for the Omnia II, and it's such a laggy device that I will think not twice but 10 times before I but another Samsung phone next time.

Thanks! I just wasted 3 hours of my lifetime, and shortened my lifespan by 0.0872%
[HD2 General] sjgillett:
Hi All,

I have had my HD2 for a couple of weeks now and am loving it but I am having trouble with the Sense music player. The problem has happened to me twice now and the only way I can resolve it is a hard reset which is a pain to be honest.

The problem I have is without any warning when I select the Music Player from the slide bar on the home menu the Music Player has stopped working and just shows the"Launching HTC Sense" screen and returns to the home page. The first time it happend it was after I copied across a load of MP3 files. I tried a soft reset which had no affect so I went for a hard reset and that fixed it. I copied over a smaller number of MP3 files a few days ago and it has been working fine until tonight. The same problem has returned. My music plays in media player fine without any issues.

Can anyone shed any light on what the cause of this might be and is there a way to resolve it without a hard reset?

Thanks in advance

Simon
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
First thing to say is transfer your music over using disk drive mode, not activesync. (or better still if you have a card reader on your pc, put the card in that way and drag n drop your music to it, then back in the phone and let it find it.)
[HD2 General] sjgillett:
Hi,

Thanks for your reply. The first time I did this was via activesync but was having some issues so reverted to using my card reader on my PC the second time and it all seemed ok until this evening where all I tried to do was try to play some of the MP3 files.

Simon
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
in that case sorry, no more ideas.never had a problem so never had to look into it.

best of luck.
[HD2 General] donwhann:
hey, i had the same problem on saturday....

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=639497

in the end i re-flashed my phone,proper pain in the arse.i think i loaded too much music at once.i just put some tunes on tonight but re-sync'd the phone after every album,up to now all seems good.defo dont need this to happen again......
[HD2 General] sjgillett:
Hi mate,

Thanks for your reply. I just tried deleting that file and it worked.

Excellent.

Cheers

[HD2 General] ShogunPatch:
Worked for me too

Hi all.

I've been having the same problem for the last week - very infuriating. Just thought I'd add that I tried the above fix and it worked, sweet as a nut.

Fantastic, and a real relied not to have to do a hard reset. Thanks.
[HD2 General] Jarzeb:
for that people like me- i couldn't find the solution here

Try to delete the music-library file: Application Data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/AudioManager_Eng.vol (the file is hidden) The next time you hit the music tab, this file is rebuild again.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ZootHornRollo:
Hi,

I have a Vario II that i have flashed many's a ROM on to. However i can no longer do so.

I can get as far as the confirmation screen, click Next, the progress bar appears but remains at zero then a few seconds later activesync crashes.

Flashing the ROM then fails (obviously)

Any idea's?

I have tried searching but found nothing helpful.

p.s. i am flashing via USB
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Tr0w4tr3y:
I have expirienced this on the PC at my work. Our PC there has a restriction for USB Drives. The ActiveSync detects my device but when starts to flash the connection is cut. Having an error on the RRU that my USB is disconnected or remove.

Maybe you can check your PC if it can detect your device even without ActiveSync. You can go to your control panel and check if there is no undetected hardwares.

BTW, what is the OS of your PC.?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ZootHornRollo:
i'm using XP.

I will try to flash my Kaiser... see if that works.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ZootHornRollo:
i can flash my Kaiser so no issues with detection etc.

Still the same issue with my Hermes tho.

Any help appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] aze2learn:
Use the SD card flashing method. No need activesync/cable. Read wiki : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ZootHornRollo:
i had considered that but don't have a card reader. They cost pennies these days so i guess, no excuses!

Cheers.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] aze2learn:
If you still have a working WM, you can install WM5storage and make your phone act as a card reader/usb thumbdrive. You can then format and copy files normally like using a usb card reader/thumbdrive :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Tr0w4tr3y:
Thats odd. Do you use the same connector on your kaiser?

Also may i ask what's your HardSPL Version..?
[Nexus One General] omega52390:
so i know this will confuse many but i need to do a factory reset before sending my phone in to htc for repairs. the problem is that i was unlucky i tripped and fell with my phone in my pocket (screen facing leg) there is superficial damage to the camera cover on the back plate and somehow the screen managed to get cracked on the inside destroying all pixels leaving me with a black screen. however the top glass is unscratched and the digitizer works perfectly fine. so i can use my phone however it is blindly. i have heard of this happening to many other people but i dont know what stance htc is taking on coverage of this flaw. my phone is rooted but i have heard of people still getting warranty coverage on hardware faults. so what i need is screen shots of the main screen with with the options button pressed. then i need a screen shot of the settings menu so i can see the factory reset option then i need a screen shot of the dialog it gives

eg i need screenshot of all of the steps neccessary to do a factory reset plz and thank you all
[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
Just so you know doing a factory reset wont unroot your phone if thats what youre attempting, also if youve flashed another rom I dont think this will work at all. If you still want them though I can do it. Hope they'll fix it for you but I doubt it, dropping the phone or falling with it isnt really a hardware flaw.
[Nexus One General] omega52390:
well it will unroot it. but i know that it wont relock the bootloader its just that they may accept the policy even if its unlocked if nothing has been loaded on to it at least thats was one persons experience.

and i may be able to get it covered even though the damage was from a fall. i had the phone in its protector in my pocket with the screen facing my leg and it still managed to mess up the screen. that should not have happened.

but yes please the screenshots would be appreciated if there is any chance i can get the phone fixed under warranty i want to try it
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
What you need to do is flash the stock images to unroot, simply doing a factory reset of a custom rom will not unroot it...

This should be a lot easier, too, since you can fastboot flash the stock images.

I know modaco has all the 100% stock images on his site in ready to flash via fastboot format. Not sure if the link is still on here for them, though.
[Nexus One General] omega52390:
well now that you say that i can just go download the new firmware cuz itll flash over the root rom i dont know why i didnt think of that guess im just tired lately

edit: just realized ill still need screen caps for the bootloader because i cant see what im doing T_T
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
Flashing via fastboot is done completely in the cmd screen... no on screen prompts from the phone. All you have to do is boot into fast boot by holding down the trackball while powering on. That puts you in fastboot, then just plug in the USB, open your cmd window from the folder you have fastboot files in, make sure you have the ROM img's in that folder as well, then type in the fastboot commands.
[Nexus One General] omega52390:
god i hate command line... especially adk but i guess i can do it that way
[Nexus One General] omega52390:
**** well there is something else i could really use i need screen shots of the steps to save my contacts to my sim card so i can use another phone till mine gets fixed

thank you so much in advance
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
What phone are you going to be using? All your contacts are backed up to your gmail account, and you can download them in different formats to put them on a sd card and load onto your other phone...

If it is a dumb phone, then yeah you need to copy to your SIM, but we need to know what ROM you are on, and even then it would be pretty hard since your contacts app is going to be in one of many places in the app drawer.
[Nexus One General] omega52390:
im just on the cyanogen with the root addon its no change to the os at all

edit: i think its called superboot
[Nexus One General] El Daddy:
Do you have the SDK installed on your computer? You could you ddms to take screenshots of your phone and navigate that way.

just used my gmail and did it manually thanks for the tip

Hey Xillius!

Thanks for using my Phone apk, but what version are you using?

I'm asking because I've been trying to get my Phone apk to detect the SEND_SMS permissions, and thought that perhaps rebuilding a new image might do it.

Could you check your Phone's ApplicationManifest.xml and check if there's a line that says SEND_SMS on it?

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] XxKOLOHExX:
Hey thanks for the rom... But how did you manage to put JIT preinstalled?? i thought you had to put it after you install a rom
[G1 Android Development] smuvman:
jit

if u remove the the dalvikvm file and the two lib files from watever rom ur using then replace them with the jit files all you have to do then is resign the rom and flash. i wouldnt try it unless you know what your doing though;)
[G1 Android Development] XxKOLOHExX:
I tried that but every time i do it always seems to fail on me
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
nice improvements, keep up the good work...

love the boot animation and the way the launcher roll (wrap around) not to mention the blur animation... nice touch

Thanks for another promising rom
