Yea I didn't mean to come across so harshly to him.. He did some good work back in the day, but it riles me how he's regarded as the messiah by most of the newcomers to the scene. He discovered and supplied a lot things through his fabled htc contact (which was ruined for everyone by the aformentioned scumbag) and he some good ideas, but his releases were mostly a case of dropping leaked files into a standard build.. and, let's be honest, weren't that great. he's not some awesome groundbreaking coder as everyone now seems to think.

My main point in my rant above is that nobody actually knows this guy beyond twitter stalking and old forum posts.. History has shown how different people can be behind their username (scumbag again). I don't think we should be giving money to old "devs" that have been out of the game for ages, on the promise that they might do some unknown awesome thing with the new hardware.

I think its a pretty scummy thing for him to directly ask people to buy him a new phone. If anyone else without his status did that, we'd laugh at them.

Dear HD2 users

On feb. 24 i recieved my HD2 with no pouch in the box

the phone is unbranded and it was delivered in a sealed official HTC box

my uncle recieved his HD2 yesterday, he bought it from the same site i did

but he did got that pouch:mad:

what should i do now?
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:
1. Create a thread on XDA asking for help about it

2. Cry about it

3. Steal your uncle's pouch

4. Call HTC and complain about it

5. Deal with it

All valid choices.

I recommend number 4.
[HD2 General] faisman:
Even i didn't get a pouch... but i got a 8gb microsd......is that normal??
[HD2 General] anhhai:
I think it all depends on the agreement that most providers/distributors have with HTC with what you get. Us Aussies with our T9193, got the pouch and 16GB microSD and all the other OEM accessories.
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
I got the pouch with mine, but a lame 2GB card...had to get another :P
[HD2 General] djingonthenet:
Stop moaning, mines from t-mobile, I got a box with a phone & charger inside - that pretty much it :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] Richy99:
i used the pouch for about 2 weeks now i dont both and its sat in my draw
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
The pouch is a pain IMO. You have to put too much pressure on the screen to grip it to pull it out. I use it to rest my hd2 on on my desk at work.

Stableises the wobble from the camera not being flush :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
haha, I do the exact same thing :rolleyes:

Also, you dont need to grip the screen, just push it up from the bottom :)
[HD2 General] Meiyo:
I got the pouch with the HTC HD2.

And the pouch is GREAT .

Yes it is tight at first but after a couple of uses or days , it will get looser and get in the shape of the HD2.

I recommend you get the pouch or just but another case.
[HD2 General] niteowl360:
Ouch!

Could have been worse, you may have got the pouch and not the phone :)
[HD2 General] donwhann:

[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
Doh! i'm so thick sometimes :D cheers :)
[HD2 General] mbuckley:
This seems to have always been the case with HTC phones. I got my HD2 from O2 with the 2gb card and the case whereas my bro got his from O2 with a case, card and a bluetooth headset!

When I got my Trinity all those years ago I got a Herbert Richter car bracket and my bro didn't.

Looks like it's 1-1 :D

Noob here, I tried searching the internet the forums for months and only came up with WinMo solutions. Is there any way to stream videos from a home media server over wifi or internet to Android devices?

If not, can anyone give me a reasonable explanation as to why? If an app like Sprint TV and Jetflix can stream quality video to Android, why can't someone create an app that can do the same using Tversity.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tylerspilker:
I flashed back to RC29 and then upgraded to 30, and finally 33. I am now sitting on RC33 and when I check for updates it says none are available.

When I try to run "Radio_Dream_RC33_1_22_14_11.zip" as update.zip, also "G1OrigBootloader_nocheck.zip" they both give an error about being unsigned.

I am wondering if these two images not being flashed is causing me not to receive OTA? or is there something else wrong?

I want to get back to stock 1.6 TmoUSA
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
How did you upgrade to RC33? If you used anything from this forum - then it's not going to work as those are all unofficial roms and have update disabled in them.

Your best bet is to flash DREAIMG.nbh and check for update. That will get you to stock Donut.

Good luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tylerspilker:
Yes, I used DREAIMG.

Does it take a few days to pick up the OTA update though?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tylerspilker:
I recieved a notice for the 1.6 update last night.

I am all good now.

For the record, if anyone googles this thread, OTA updates go after a certain amount of time. Just because it says "no updates" in the check for updates field, just wait a few days and it will give you a notice.
[Nexus One General] GuestK0050:
Just wondering what peoples experiences are.

I just got the AT&T Nexus One. I also have 2 G1's from Rogers that get AT&T 3G that exhibit amazing signal quality. The signal strength is stable and doesn't jump all over the palce.

So. Down to it.

I had the T-Mobile Nexus One and bought a T-Mobile sim card to test performance for my self. Performance was horrible. It didn't matter if I put my hand over the back of the phone or not, the T-Mobile Nexus one would randomly go from 3 bars, to nothing, then hit Edge and bounce back again. Totally unusable.

Now I have the AT&T nexus one. Speeds are impressive here in Salt Lake City. Got 3Mbit down, and 1.6Mbit up. How can you complain.

However... the signal is still all over the place. Although it hasn't dropped to Edge, it shows 4 bars, then 2 bars, and even no bars, and back again... all over the place.

Overall the speeds are way better than T-Mobile, and AT&T's 850mhz signal is known to penetrate buildings better and travel farther, but I am still seeing some wildly varying signal strength's, seemingly at random. It does indeed affect speed tests too. One minute speeds are at 3mbit, then next, 1mbit. Not bad really, but still indicative of the issue on the T-Mobile Nexus One.

So what are you're experiences???

How to show several appointments on the standard lockscreen

Have searched for a while to find a reg tweak or something else to get the lockscreen to show several appoinments. I know I can use the CHT lockscreen, but I don't want to use it. Don't have time to search/find out how to do it.., any who has the sollution ready? I know it's out there, because I have noticed some ROM's have it.. Thanks! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rkrims:
WM lock shows only 1 appointment. Other 3rd party screen lock apps can show more detailed info, this is what I use (pocketshield)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Svein10:
Hi rkrims, thanks! I am sure that I had a ROM that did show several appointments, but can't remember who it was... Can't be that difficult to change it to show several... ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
You know you can access the Lock screen by just holding down the right phone hard key for several seconds? You don't have to leave the Home screen and click Lock to do it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Svein10:
Hi Miami_Son, mine locks on standby.. But this doesn’t solve my question.... ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] M9x3mos:
Hello all,

Sorry for such a dumb question been a while since I have tinkered with my mt3g. I remember that the bluetooth don't work on hero and some stuff ran better on 32a software but for the life of me I can't find out how to do it.

I already have a root mt3g running kings droid eris port and would like bluetooth since that is what I use mainly and not working on this build so i wanted to tinker with some of the 32a ones on here. Does anyone know how to change this on the phone? If i recall correctly you fastboot the 32a radio then a 32a recovery and then what ever rom. But no sure and don't want to brick my phone.

currently has the 1.33.2005 spl showing 32b s-off h

Thank you guys.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] M9x3mos:
Does anyone know any ideas. I remember can be done just can't find the steps anymore. Please help LOL
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] devbro:
based on my understanding 32B and 32A refer to board models. 32A has more memory and better parts compared to 32B. i would advice you not to put and 32A rom on your phone(32B) as it can be unsafe.

If you need bluetooth why dont you switch to a rom that supports bt and some more? that would be the safest way.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sombionix:
Actually, you can do this, however, this is typically only done if you are trying to get root access with a perfected SPL. Such as 1.33.0007. But most people that do this revert back to a 32B once they flash a non perfected spl.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=547133
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] devbro:
Are you saying that it is possible to put a 32A rom on a 32B model? If so that would be awosome. But why other people kept on reverting back?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 1wingangel:
if you try it, will you pm me and let me know how it worked.I would love to find out how as well.:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 1wingangel:

[HD2 General] alky77:
The built in Opera browser on my HD2 was suddenly unable to connect to the internet and kept throwing "Network Error" even though the data connection was fine. I found several reports of similar issues with Opera Mobile but no solution.

After some trial and error, here's the solution:

Set HKLM\Software\Opera\Prefs\Network\ConnMgr Auto Detect = 1

Restart the browser and it should be good to go.
[HD2 General] DORMIU:
Did the error disable your data connection as a whole, or only Opera 9.7 could not connect anymore?
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
How do I do this? My abd doesnt work either, when i connect and install screen pops up it says nothing found to install...
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
You just boot into recovery, and then from the recovery you click Backup then go to nandroid backup.
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
This backsup on y sd card? When i install new rom do i need to recover to get all my apps and screen setup?
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
It will setup a backup file on your SD card, but a nandroid backup takes an image of EVERYTHING on your phone including rom. SO doing a nandroid backup to get your apps back will get your apps back, but would put your old rom back :P
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
So everytime we install a new rom we have to start from scratch? Gotcha
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
It's best to, but there are different backups that will dl your APPS back, and you can set up your contacts to sync from Google Contacts. If you go from 1.5 to 2.1 you have to start from scratch (cept for contacts)
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
Yea google has my stuff, i plan on going from 2.0b2 to 2.0b, not sure if its worth it though. Whats the app that will redownload ur apps?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] RumpleForeskinn:
So I just traded my iPhone for a rooted MyTouch. It has the Cyanogen mod I believe. Well all of a sudden I could not access my SD card and when I tried to open it on my computer it said 'Wrong Format'. Wouldn't work on the phone either. So I formated Fat32 and thought I could start over.

It still shows my apps installed in the Marketplace, although they were on the SD and deleted. I can't uninstall them, but it thinks they are there, somewhere. Has anyone had this problem? I am relatively new to Android and rooting. I had a jailbroken iPhone before. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] M9x3mos:
kinda depends really. I would suggest first going thru recovery console if you are using amon recovery and partition sd card there. With most modified roms you have apps 2 sd so there are actually 3 partions. The biggest is fat32 for data like music, then ext2,3,4 for applications then a linux swap partition to help expand the ram on the phone and if you formated on PC or from settings on phone those partitions are gone. So I would do that first and then try to uninstall from market and reinstall again if not you may need to wipe and restart the device.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] RumpleForeskinn:
How do I get into recovery mode? I tried going to the terminal and using the flash_image recovery /sdcard/imgfile but it says I do not have permission?

Any ideas??
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] koreancanuck:
If your phone has been rooted right by the previous owner, you can access the recovery mode by first powering down, then pressing home and power at the same time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] RumpleForeskinn:
Ahh! That worked! thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jandrits:
I have a variation on this problem and lost my apps and Market, hope someone can help. Started with the SD card coming unmounted randomly, known issue with EVO I guess. Followed the recommendation of reformatting the SD by plugging it into a Windows PC and doing a FAT32 format. I backed up everything I could "see" from SD to C: drive. I am running a custom ROM with APPS2SD feature and Clockworkmod recovery. I'm very new to Linix and Android but, it looks like there is a Linix Ext3 partition that is made by APPS2SD on the SD card and that is where all my apps where, including android Market app. So, upon copying all the folders back to the re-formatted SD I had no apps and no android Market to able to re-download all my apps. I guess Market is like a licensed deal that you can't just get a .apk of and reload it. I do HAVE a current recovery backup that was on the FAT32 directory of the SD card but it appears the the Ext3 partition is not in that recovery file. I tried booting into recovery with Clockworkmod and reformatting the SD again, I tried a "Restore ext3.img" but Clockworkmod comes back with 'sd-ext.img not found" so I am guessing that the Linix Ext3 partition backup was stored IN the Ext3 partition of the SD(?) and the system and data stuff is stored in the FAT32 recovery file. Brilliant idea (not)! I tried a re-flash of the ROM, flashes OK but no apps. Anyway, the SD is properly partitioned now, the FAT32 stuff is back on, I don't know how to look in to the Est3 partition but, I know there is one program there cause I installed a file explorer by downloading and executing an .apk and there was an option to install it to SD. Going to factory reset and starting over again is not an option. Any ideas please?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jandrits:
SOLVED this issue:

apperantly the android market application is called "vendor.apk" and can be downloaded from various sites BUT WAIT, it's not that simple. Apperantly the vendor app has to be specific to your phone (hardware)? On a whim, I downoaded the previous version of my custom ROM (happedned to be Fresh ROM) .zip, I extracted the vendor.apk from the .zip and installed that. Then, I had an apk called MarketUpdater.apk, or something like that, that had installed in the phones system/app from the last Fresh ROM update. I ran this to update the vendor (android market) to the latest version, then I ran that. Did it work? NO, it crashed hen I tied to run market. I then did a re-boot. Did it it work? NO Upon attempting to reboot it got stuck in a loop and froze. Very scary. So, remove the battery and try again. I think I had to remove and re-install the SDcard somewhere in there to get it to a first time boot and, after a re-boot, whalla, come back with a working market. Market remembered all the apps that I purchased and I re-downloaded everything. Of course, I don't know for sure where they are stored right now (SD card or phone??)

And, my original problem of SD card constantly coming unmounted has been fixed.

Hello...

I've been frantically googling and checking the forums, I have a mt3g 1.2 (3.5mm) that needs to be exchanged to t-mobile, I rooted following the stock fender w/ root method, and need to revert it back to the stock settings as shipped. So far, my search has turned up no resolve. I was hoping someone here could provide me with the proper sappimg.nbh to restore. I've got the one for the original MT3G, but it (as expected) damages touch-screen capabilities. Can someone please help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wpbcubsfan:
As far as I know, it's not possible until T-Mobile releases an OTA update for either the Fender or MyTouch 3.5mm. That was explained in the rooting instructions here on XDA...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
If you use the stock rom http://www.theandroidkitchen.com/fileshare/MyTouch3g32A/?download=MT3G32AFender-1.0-fixed-signed.zip and then you should have touchscreen. It's only with custom roms that touchscreen does not work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shawn1224:
Couldn't you just flash the Mytouch splash image and turn in in like that?

It looks pretty stock after that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
... you got the splash image handy?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceas909:
you can find the stock mt3g splash screen if u search on here but not the fender one... i got the stock myt3g splash on my 1.2...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
That's what I'm saying though, no one seems to have the fender one. Far as the op's situation, might have tried flashing one of those "32A" roms, which obviously won't work at this point, probabbly best to just try the rom from my signature (the one linked as Rooted), which is basically the stock rom and touchscreen and all that should work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceas909:
yea he has a 1.2, so yea i think his best bet is to get the stock mt3g splash screen and the stock fender rom... the only problem is that between the fender and the 1.2 the build number is different..the 1.2 is 2.10.531.4 CL119339 release-keys where the fender is 2.10.531.3 CL111099 release-keys .... but a simple edit of the build prop could make it display the correct buid numbers in the about phone menu..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] merlino211:
I've actually attempted to just replace the splash with the original mytouch splash. This can be achieved by applying a proper SPL that will allow it to be replaced... PROBLEM being that after repacing the SPL with the ones linked: theunlockr[.]com/2010/03/10/how-to-change-your-splash-screen/

Once this process is taken, the radio functions and all seems well, EXCEPT that now when I place calls, my speaker does nothing. Phones can receive the calls and hear me, but I hear nothing. the end result is to reflash the phone with the rooted rom, minus the mt3g splash... This part is where my frustration is kicking in as their guide claims this is specific for the fender/mt3g 1.2, but yet bricks the speaker somehow.

It appears that the guide on unlockr is wrong for this phone. I was successfully able to get the splash back on the phone by implementing the steps of adding the splash DURING the initial radio and recovery image restores, at which point the sappimg used is the engineering 2010. Once the splash was loaded at this point, I was able to continue with the install, install the rom, but a fresh install would *not* boot into the OS, just hung on a black screen after the animated "android" splash. Upon restoring a nandroid back-up, the phone booted to the OS in its formerly operational state, mt3g splash included.... I'm going to attempt a factory reset from the phones main options purely to see if it'll boot or hang on the black screen again.

Methods were all successful, factory reset worked to bring the phone back to the android setup wizard WHILE retaining the splash screen with no blank screen as described earlier... Process was as followed:

Performing the unlockr guide; during the following steps:

fastboot flash radio radio.img

fastboot flash hboot hboot.nb0 (the 0 at the end of this line is a zero not an oh).

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

the phone is currently running the SPL for the Engineering SPL 1.33.2010... I modified the above process to reflect

fastboot flash splash1 splash.nb

fastboot flash radio radio.img

fastboot flash hboot hboot.nb0 (the 0 at the end of this line is a zero not an oh).

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Recovered from the rooted fender stock image, which then took me to a blank screen. Recovered from a nandroid back-up, which restored the phone to my state just prior to (re)flashing. After nandroid backup is restored and successfully making calls, factory reset was done and test calls were successfully made from the freshly reset version of fender/wroot stock.... A bit hackish and unorthodox, but it answered the question I was so valiantly struggling to find resolve to.

It appears the stock fender /w root reverts the hboot version to the non-engineering, which functions fine with the speaker.... Hope this helps someone else who was in the same boat as me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Or you can just goto the thread in the link of my sig ("rooted"), you want to make sure when you're reading guides that they are for your specific phone, some people have bricked their fenders or 1.2 cuz they got the wrong radio/spl intended for the older MyTouch3G
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] merlino211:
I made sure to use the right guide on the unlockr, the problem came specifically from where they had the SLP change guide... Either way, problem is fixed now and it'll be in the hands of the t-mobile store tomorrow. If I ever doubtfully get a question about the root from them after it ships back, I'll play dumb and inquire if maybe someone else did it while it was waiting to ship :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceas909:
i hope they dont catch the build number being different.. as i stated in eairler post the build nmbers in the about phone menu are different from the fender and the 1.2
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
In my experience most sales reps are completely ignorant of that kind of thing, changing the boot screen may be enough to make em go along with it. IF you're dealing directly with the company on the other hand that may be a different story.
