This ROM is great! But I am having some issues with the wireless tether. When I press 'start tethering' the screen goes black for awhile and then I get a force close? Any intuition into the problem would be greatly appreciated.
[Droid Eris Android Development] failsaf3:
You need su permission.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rossco_Pee:
Sorry, but I am new to root? How do I accomplish this?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sheen160:
Just hold down the word you're typing when it shows up in the little bar above the keyboard. After you hold it down for a second or two it'll say "<your word> saved" sorry this is a bit late i know :p
[Droid Eris Android Development] ckotten03:
For the Wireless Tethering & SU permissions you need to do this (copied from GRDLOCK's earlier post):

With any ROM, you need to open up a command prompt first thing and go to your \tools\ directory of your SDK, run "adb shell" then type "su" and you should see the superuser popup. From then on Superuser should work fine.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ckotten03:
2x Contacts

I'm running the Vanilla ROM & removed the JITs. Has anyone noticed that they have double contacts? I tried deleting one of the doubles and it ended up deleting the contact entirely. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks!

is there anyway to add the HTC twitter widget back in this rom?

Please replace DialerOne

This firmware breaks US laws regarding phone access to 911 emergency service thanks to the DialerOne app.

Please replace it with the stock Android dialer that has been properly tested. This is the one app on the phone which absolutely must work correctly as it can cost human life.

Last night a young man laid face down on the sidewalk unconscious without paramedic assistance after a mugging for an extra 5-10 minutes as I had to look up the non-emergency police number and convince them that my "developer phone" was unable to dial 911 directly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] andrew8806:
Is the guy alright?
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
Not to sound like a **** but you could have just dialed 0 or 411 for that matter. Ive done it before and worked fine. And you, yourself can replace the dialer. And if you feel this is a bad thing, dont use this ROM. No one is forcing you to use it. And you, yourself, are the one that rooted the phone, so maybe you should put that anger towards yourself as well.

I could be reading too much into this but sounds like you are trying to blame the creator of this ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ArcRiley:
Replacing a system app

How do you replace a "system" app, ie, one that was packaged in VanillaDroid. I do not see a way to remove DialerOne from the phone, nor replace it with the standard Android dialer.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
Sounds like he is trying to let people know. Dialerone had a problem, and could of cost someone their life.

He has full right to be angry towards the developer of dialerone.

Rom needs to be removed until someone can get ahold of grdlock to fix it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
As I said, I was prop reading too much into it. On a diff note, thought GrdLock be back by now from vacation. Anyone hear from him?

And to the poster about the dialer, sorry. Didnt mean to sound like a ****.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ArcRiley:
DialerOne

As it turns out, the problem is that the real Android dialer is necessary to dial special numbers like 911. DialerOne (and others) fallback to the actual Android dialer, which isn't present in this firmware.

Does anyone know how to add it back in or does the entire firmware need to be rebuilt from scratch?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Abrasher:
not bad

it is looking good
[Droid Eris Android Development] Abrasher:
hmm

how is the battery life on this one after a week or so?
[Hero CDMA General] tamburylar:
I apologize if there is an obvious answer to this but this issue has been driving me mad for awhile now and I tried searching but if it's answered I cannot find it. I have been using DamageControl V1, 2.05, and presently Fresh 2.0d. Using the stock LockScreens that come with the ROM. What I find incredibly annoying is that if my phone gets any type of notification like Alarm or appointment reminder that pops up typically you have to slide down to dismiss it.

However anyone touch of the hardware keys (especially the trackball) will make the notification disappear. It doesn't dismiss it but rather seems to sleep the warning. This is incredibly annoying since 90% of the day my phone is in my pocket and I am constantly having notifications "hidden/slept" because the trackball or another button is getting pressed.

Does anyone know a way to block this behavior? it's really annoying with appointment reminders because once I hide/sleep them I can't get them to stop alarming 5 mins later and again it's in my pocket so I miss it.

Thanks for any help.
[Hero CDMA General] tamburylar:
Well if nobody has any suggestions to a fix can someone at least confirm this issue exists on their phones? it's easy to do just set an alarm 1 minute in the future and then turn you phone off (standby) whent he alarm pops up on the lockscreen. just move the the trackball slightly and the alarm will "disappear" it has apparently slept the alarm as it will alarm again in 5 mins.. you can disable the alarm by going into the alarm and unchecking it.

Thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA General] jackal424:
I recently removed some stock apps. Everything works except now the keyboard doesnt open for anything.

Should I have not removed the IM apk?

Is there a way to fix this w/o restoring backup?

Can someone point me to the DC 2.05 keyboad apk?

Updated with solution:

Since I can't delete this thread, I'll leave what I found and how I fixed it.

When trying to remove stock IM app, I did a wildcard remove in adb shell: rm *IM*

That was dumb of me, because that removed the HTC_IME.apk (Which happened to be the keyboard app)

So I extracted the HTC_IME.apk from DC 2.05 ROM and pushed it back to the phone via adb shell and restarted.

All is good now.

Go on the gmail app, and go on htc.com on the browser,

do the light grays appear to have a slight pink colour to them?

I just want to know how many people have this issue and how many don't.
[Desire General] cez10:
i do have it, just phoned t-mobile and will get it replaced when the new stock arrives
[Desire General] Belynda:
It would appear I also have a pinkish tinge.
[Desire General] HoneyBeFly:
I have too I just realised :(
[Desire General] Quazar0:
I think almost all desires have this issue, its not pronounced enough to make me return mine. Its very slight, and it goes away when brightness is increased.

Mines not very noticable above 40%.
[Desire General] scotch whisky:
It's hardly noticeable in my opinion. Certainly would not have even have known it was there if I hadn't read this forum.
[Desire General] chappers-UK:
Completly agree, mine has a slight tint, but nothing that concerns me............ yet!
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
It's not that bad and i certainly won't return mine because of this.

Looking like NRG has dropped the ball on the TMOUS Version Rom, because i don`t see the thread anymore.

It is kind of good because his roms are getting too usual and bringing nothing new :)
[HD2 General] the0stranger:
Energy rom

I still like his rom though :)

I asked the same question. His rom can be found in the standard HD2 thread, he does have TMOUS specific version still. Maybe he isn't going to continue with that ??
[HD2 General] pinhead:
As long as it is still TMOUS compatible it may not NEED to be in this forum but I think it might be better since the separation keeps things clearer (less chance of costly mistakes). However, while I enjoyed his ROMs on the Touch Pro2 I found that the focus seems to be entirely on modifying HTC Sense. The ROMs have become a bit more bug ridden as well. On the HD2 I couldn't even use the dialer as it disappeared constantly. It might be just as well that the ROM isn't listed :/
[HD2 General] sumo911:
NRGZ is the man! Im on the latest NRGZ release and its been working almost perfectly for me so far.:p

He said recently that there will no longer be a TombileUS specific ROM anymore since the ONLY difference between it and his other HD2 ROMs are the tmobile apps, which can easily be installed via .cabs.
[HD2 General] amb9800:
He's no longer making TMoUS-specific ROMs, but you can just install his standard HD2 ROMs and get whatever TMoUS CABs you need from here:

[Touch Diamond CDMA] clayman612:
I have been lurking and learning on here for about a month I bought a used Alltel MP6950 from craigslist and I was hoping to activate it on my alltel account I am legacy alltel with verizon well I was informed that I would have to pay 29.99 data plan.So I have been playing with it to at least see if I could get it to update prl ota and cannot get it to work I updated the prl last night from 30033 to 30053 and I finally have a EV signal icon on my phone and when I call I don't get the Roaming network I get Verizon but it will not complete the programing ota I have made some changes to the code thru qpst just to see if I could get any type of connection.I have decided now to go ahead and active it thru verizon but I want to do it online thru website and I was wanting to know if the changes I made like changing the phone number inside the phone from what it was to mine.I am running Mighhty Rom 6 and love it I just got my gps to work last night.Will those changes I made stop it from activiating and if so what can I do to fix this Thanks alot and sorry for the long post
[Touch Diamond CDMA] lokoz89:
the changes probably wont do anything well unless you did anything really wierd either way you can flash your phone back to the original rom and then it will reset all qpst settings to default. then you can go ahead activate it online. if you need help with the data ask and ill help once you have it activated
[Desire General] zoidinger:
Hi,

I just wanted to know if there are more than one version from the Desire out in Europe like they did with HD2 (WWE, FRA, etc.)? And if there are more versions, which ones will it be?

Thanks,

zoidinger
[Desire General] zoidinger:
At least someone has to know? :) Maybe someone could just look at their box and tell me what's printed at the bar code. On my HD2 box there was something like this: HD2 - Uk. Maybe it's the same with the Desire. Would be great if someone could look this up for me.

Thanks
[Desire General] Phil750123:
I think there are 2, well atleast, from the "dock" links at the bottom.

My desire only has 1 little hole on the bottom(not including the micro usb adapter)

however i have seen photos of desire with 3 of these holes.

Anyone have anymore ideas on this?
[Desire General] RaptorRVL:
The Desires with three holes were the preview units right? At least, I only saw them on the preview models.

And the little hole is the mic, not for a dock (before you start plugging things in there lol! :D ).
[Desire General] zoidinger:
Yep I think this might have been the preview units ;) If someone could look at his/her box, we could find out :D BTW thanks for your replies
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] junkeeroo:
Hi,

Anyone have any trouble getting their MyTouch, the newest version with 3.5mm jack, an unlock code via an unlocking service (i.e. and not through tmobile)?

Thanks.

UPDATE: So after a few days of checking around with unlockers...there's 3 methods to check for unlock codes. The HTC, Tmobile international databases have come up empty. There's a 3rd method that takes 1-2 weeks. Seems that the phone is either stolen or a promo...in which case there's no IMEI code listed/available to unlock. The last scenario is that because it's a newer version of the MyTouch, the databases just might not be updated.

Anyone successfully have their 3.5mm version MyTouch successfully unlocked by someone other than Tmobile?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Aeikozz:
if you call 611 and ask to speak to technical support they'll give you the unlock codes. just say you are going to europe and you wanna use your phone on t-mobile there.

lol oops didn't see he asked for people who don't have t-mobile accounts. lol....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] junkeeroo:
actually, though i don't have a t-mo account, i am looking for people with a tmobile account who would be interested in getting unlock codes for me (one for wifey and one for me) for a good Samaritan fee.
[TG01 General] cheetah05:
Hi there,

What is the difference between the two and how do I tell which one I have?

Also, being new to smart phones and ROMS and stuff, what is the most popular ROM at the moment? Is it this one, because it was the one I was thinking of loading: "[ROM][ENG] TG01/T01A Debranded UK + Manila Sense 2.5 v0.002 (03/04/2010) New T01A!!!"

Thanks.
[TG01 General] mr.mike:
You should buy TG01.

T01A is the japanese version of TG01 with the docomo brand (a biggest telecom company in japan)

Now,T01A can flash to english language however T01A hasn't been unlocked by code.so if you don't live in japan,you can't use this device without hypersim...
[TG01 General] tra33372:
You can check it by looking a label on the phone (under the battery).
[Desire Accessories] marvi0:
ok bought mine today, but no screen protector, am assuming its the same for everyone else, but whats your opinion, on whether or not its necessary, to have a screen protector.?
[Desire Accessories] 400ixl:
Doesn't come with one in the box.

I have ordered one as it better to be safe than sorry.
[Desire Accessories] marvi0:
Yeh I suppose you are right but I may say for some very strange reason the screen looks and feels more robust than any phone I have ever used more or less like the iPhone
[Desire Accessories] Fon22:
Mine got a faint scratch on day 1, from something in my pocket!

The screen cant be that strong!

Fon22
[Desire Accessories] RaptorRVL:
It's not nescesary until you get a scratch on your display :D

I always have two reasons why I get a screen protector:

1. To eliminate reflections. The Brando Anti-Glare ones are really good at this. I always use that kind of screen protector on all my devices (too bad they don't have it for the Desire... yet).

2. To avoid scratches. A scratch on the display is really nasty, especially when you constantly see it. And it will also influence the value later on when you want to sell the phone.

So.. if you, eventually, plan to sell the phone: Do yourself a favour and put a screen protector on it and -always- carry the phone in a case/pouch. You can sell the phone later as "As good as new! No scratches whatsoever!".

And if you want less reflection (at the cost of a somewhat more 'grainy' display) use an anti-glare protector. Those things are great when using your phone for navigation in the car when it's sunny!
[Desire Accessories] jah:
Get one. Cheaper when you think of it as an insurance policy! My Vikuiti protector is great. Probably replace it with the Brando when it becomes available.
[Desire Accessories] wibberly:
I had a HD2 and the screen on that was next to impossible to scratch. A few times it was placed in my pocket with keys or screws. It even felt solid and scratch resistant. I heard it may well be glass.

Now the Desire. Hmmmmm. The screen feels a lot cheaper and bendy so I have really been careful with this one. I think you can see where this one is going?

I found a scratch on the top of the screen. How?! It has lived in it's case.

HTC got it so right with the HD2 and it now seems like a backward step again for what should have been a premium Android device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] blink8512:
Ever since I unlocked my phone my service is slow! I have a TP2 on the VZW network

I ran the speed test at mobilespeedtest.com and it says 222 kbps that I am under what other people on verizon have got ... with the stock ROM it would say 3G now its says EV I know that its just the icon. also I would only have 2 bars at the max

I called verizon about this and they set up a TT - Trouble Ticket and Verizon people have called me saying everything is fine

I use the ppckitchen to bulid my own ROMs i have try other one here also allways the same problem.

__________________________________________________ _________

So today I tested a theory I had "What if i flashed back to stock and relocked my TP2"

So I did I reflashed to the stock ROM and Relocked

WoW i have full bars now

Speed test is now Showing 3g speeds of 448

So I am left with having to be on the stock ROM if I want the faster speed vs using HTC Since 2.5

Any help on this Will be thanked!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
It sounds like you just need to determine which radio is included in that stock ROM, and flash that radio to your phone after you install a custom ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] burtonsnow8:
Having read both of your posts here and on ppc, it seems like you aren't experience problems with radios, but when you unlock your radio, which honestly should not affect anything (Based on this info.)

In all honesty I experience anywhere from low 100s to high 700s depending on a lot of factors. Also, if you look at phone arena and multiple other websites, the TP2 doesn't have the best 3g receiver, meaning other phones will get better speeds. I think you need to chalk this one up as normal.

I have based my test results on dslreports.com/mspeed with 200k, 400k, and 1MB files using both IE and Opera (opera turbo disabled).

Hello,

I'm using RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship and I've just noticed that I have the GPS Photo options in the camera by default. I have no program such as HD 2 Tweaks or BSB Tweaks installed.

It's a clean install of the original ROM and a Task29 has been performed before installing it.

However, it doesn't work...the "Initializing GPS" keeps on loading (didn't tried this outside).

Anyone else has this option by default? Is it a faulty ROM?
[HD2 General] Aterlatus:
The GPS will always struggle indoors. GPS signals are travelling a long distance at a low power...

Try it outdoors. If you still have problems then look into it. ;)
[HD2 General] digitalhater:
Thanks. I don't think the option should be there however. It's a stock ROM and no tweaks applied so...this is why it's strange. Can anyone confirm?
[HD2 General] digitalhater:
can anyone reply?!!
[HD2 General] Cenobite_:
I have it enabled too. Stock 1.66 ROM.

Still don't know what the problem is with that tbh.
[HD2 General] mpaxton:
Would seem silly to write the feature and then disable it in the release ROM! I'd only expect that of service provider specific roms, if they wanted to disable it for some reason. I think it was enabled on the latest released HTC rom I installed.

If you're having trouble getting a GPS fix, try running the 'quick gps' app (I think it's in the Tools menu somewhere) - this updates the GPS data on the phone so it will get the location fix sooner. You'll need to be outdoors with a relatively clear view of the sky also; it's not guaranteed to work indoors.

If you want to test the GPS seperately from the camera app, try turning gps on with google maps or using the footprints app.

hello guys,

i want to share how to running android from sdcard, last time before i lose my X1 it's already running well on my X1.

here's the step :

requirement :

1. linux (mine ubuntu 9.10)

2. for ubuntu do "sudo apt-get install squashfs-tools" for getting unsquashfs (for extract system.sqsh)

prepared equipment :

1. 8gb SDCard (for good starting but you can also using 2 gb or 4gb)

2. partition your sdcard like this (8gb configuration) you can using gparted :

1. 5.5 gb format using fat32 this called : mmcblk0p1

2. 1 gb format using ext2/ext3 for /system this called : mmcblk0p2

3. 1 gb format using ext2/ext3 for /data this called : mmcblk0p3

4. 512 mb format using linuxswap for /swap this called : mmcblk0p4

installation :

1. do execute on terminal : unsquashfs <your system.sqsh directory> after extraction you will see directory called "squashfs-root"

2. copy all files from "squashfs-root" directory into your SD Card /system partition or mmcblk0p2.

3. copy startup.txt, haret.exe, modules<build>.gz, zImage from vdelf build onto your root SDCARD fat32 or mmcblk0p1

4. download and copy/replace rootfs.img from here into your root SDCARD fat32 or mmcblk0p1.

5. execute haret.exe and then wait and pray.

@vdelf :

man...your the best, with this configuration you can easly changes or edit an android modules.

cheers,

fatsal

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Mic159:
Thanks fatsal, almost there.

But one thing u missed in your first post, was to copy initrd.gz in step 3 (copy it to the fat32 partition)

Otherwise HARET says "/Storage Card/initrd.gz" not found.

But i get stuck in the boot screen (the android loading image with the X).

It just sits there forever. It shows a bit of the animation, then stalls for a second then skips back to the start of the animation...

Not sure whats wrong.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Jonny4911:

Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Jonny4911:
yes the 7.42 gb is normal, i cannot help you with the error though

but until we can get to fully boot up theres no point anyway!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] vdelf:
I never managed to get past that. I got the same effect when i modified the system.sqsh. I ASSUME, that a file link is broken or some file permissions are not correct. I am sure, it is something trivial, but no idea how to find out. :(

Nice to see you around, again! :)
