Yeah except that only the last rom we downloaded said to put an RUU in the same folder as the nbf file.

Like I said, I have upgraded roms on Tytn II's and a TP2. So Im not new to a rom upgrade. But thanks for your help.
[Desire General] popkid:
Had my desire since Thursday April 1st, on T-Mobile, my first android phone so just getting to grips with it...

Today it won't connect to mobile network for data, I can make calls ok, just not browse web or use anything that requires a network connection like google maps or e-mail, there is no G or H or 3G in the menu bar, just a signal strength indicator, Mobile Network is enabled in settings btw, before you ask!

I still have my Touch Diamond 2 and the sim works fine in that for data so not a T-Mobile Issue I don't think, my O2 Sim (from Diamond 2) works fine in TD2 and not in Desire also...

Think it may have had it, was working fine Thursday to Today...

I've tried restoring to factory settings from the Privacy Menu entry and that has made no difference (incidentally, the restore from backup it offered me didn't appear to restore anything, no contacts etc carried over... so won't rely on that again either)

Is this anything typical for Android or have I just got a freak phone

Any help gratefully received or I'll have to get it swapped.

EDIT: Perhaps should point out that my Desire is not T-Mobile Branded/SIM Locked, it's from Carphone Warehouse, so is running unbranded HTC Rom (OTA Firmware update installed on first day within about 2 hours of getting phone)

Same thing happing to me all day, my phones also from CPW I cant get on the web or youtube or Google the Beeb or applications or anything else online :confused: All working ok since last week when I got it apart from it been very hit and miss conecting to anything online.
[Desire General] jah:
@popkid, T-mobile usually send mobile data & MMS settings by SMS as soon as you insert your SIm into a new phone. If this did not happen visit the T-mobile support site, there is a page where you can provide your mobile number and T-mobile will send you the settings.
[Desire General] roybert:
My phone was bought from CPW on a T-Mobile contract, the sim I am using is a T-Mobile sim from my HDT HD2 which I had only 2 weeks ago, the sim was working fine in the HD2, the sim I received with the Desire was given to my Mam. I've been on the T-Mobile site and entered my number but when the choose your phones appears the HTC Desire is not there.
[Desire General] popkid:
Settings were working just fine Thursday to Yesterday... it just stopped working for data overnight, got it to work for about 10 mins earlier after another factory reset, but then the H in menu bar disappeared again, O2 sim doesn't work for data in the Desire either... T-Mobile and O2 sims both work fine in my TD2, definitely seems to be a problem with the Desire itself or the ROM on it at least

On rebooting with new sim the desire asks for network and says it is configuring, but once you get to the social networking bit it says it can't connect to the network and to enable mobile data settings... (which are already enabled) I didn't get a text from T-Mobile when I first had phone btw.

Paul
[Desire General] roybert:
Well it's all of a sudden started working for me, must just be a server problem I think, no doubt it will revert back to being very slow or not conecting again tomorrow :(
[Desire General] gogol:
popkid:

I read somewhere, try to turn on then off the flight mode.

That could trigger the phone to activate the mobile network.

Otherwise, I suggest to give HTC a call.
[Desire General] popkid:
Working... Finally

Tracked down the issue with mine... I think anyway, seems to be randomly deleting the APN info from the Mobile Network Settings, if I notice that I have no network and go to that page it is empty... reselect the network I'm on and it sorts itself out, no idea why they are being erased though!

Definitely not a server issue for me as the SIM works in my other phone when not working in desire...

Hi guys,

I have a quick question.

Do I need to reflash HardSPL if I want to flash a new ROM? I already flashed my Touch Pro with HardSPL and then flashed it with ProVEN 2.4

However I want to flash my phone with a more updated rom. Since I don't want to brick my phone, I would like confirmation if reflashing of HardSPL is required before I upgrade from ProVEN 2.4 to a newer rom?

Hi

I had this app set up with hotmail, ive just got rid of that account and set it up with my Gmail.

Question is this....when running my hotmail i had the background set to black, it has now reverted to white (default) and i cant find the option to change back to black !!

cant find it in the settings when in K-9 or in any setting in my main app menu !!

Where the hell has it gone....maybe im going blind !

Any help !?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O and O:
Another question for you guys,

Is K9 a good alternative to the GMail app in terms of speed/push emails and battery usage? Does it use IMAP idle?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoneyBeFly:
Yes, K9 pushes email (IMAP) and polls (POP). I would say I receive my email instantly (Gmail and University accounts). Not too sure about the battery but I think push email would drain the battery less no?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O and O:
As far as I know push is better, that's good to hear, I just now need to find a comparison of the GMail application and K9 and which is better IMAP or Exchange.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoneyBeFly:
I seem to have a problem that my contacts are not showing when I type their names in the To column. When I do this in the Gmail app, it will give some suggested email addresses :( Does anyone else have this problem?

Oh, and to answer your question, K-9 is definitely faster (in fact, my Gmail app doesn't seem to push at all? How do I set it to push? Do I have to set it to auto sync? Even then it takes like a minute or so where K-9 takes about 7 seconds)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danr55:
is this generally deemed to be a better app than the standard one installed for POP email accounts? will give it a try
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O and O:
Is your K9 using activesync or imap?

I believe you need autosync on.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoneyBeFly:
My K9 is using IMAP and it's fine. It pushes my gmail account. I was asking about the Gmail app but you're right, I needed to turn the autosync on. Even then, it doesn't push. It takes about a minute or two for my email to come where it only takes about 7 seconds with K-9. Now I'm concerned about the contacts not showing in K-9 :( I might have to use Gmail app after all :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O and O:
I would use the GMail app for everything but emails. You can select in options what you want to sync and not sync easily.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoneyBeFly:
I only want my Gmail app to sync with my calendar but not email. How do I do this? I go to Settings>Account & sync>Google but I only have the option to Sync now or Remove account? Can't press menu when I reach this either :( Am I supposed to manually press sync calendar each time?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O and O:
Press your gmail account under the list of syncable items.

FroYo is the "codename" of the next android update. Thats the only thing I know about this. Even the google search shows only two results about this Android FroYo. Anyone here knows more about this update, any speculations, confirmed features or release date? Please share...

[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
I the defragmentation is a great idea though it doesnt really affect me too much. Any news about new features and software fixes that may be included in froyo?

Also is there any word on smaller, sooner updates for fixes or features or are we certain that froyo will be the next ota? I've had no success searching with Google. Thanks
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Ive heard nothing nor seen anything that makes me think Froyo will add any feature or functionality worth noting.

IMO The fact they are addressing fragmentation is a big deal. The fact they have opened up some APIs is also a big deal. But only down the road and for developers.

As for the end user The only things to really look forward to is flash and core player ((if that ever even comes out)). None of those are coming from Google.

Iphone adding multitasking is going to shift things majorly into "even" status for Apple/Android IMO.

Only ace up Androids sleeve is Flash.

Copy/paste , Gmail app , image quality , etc arent likely to be fixed or refined.
[Nexus One General] faraz1992:
Multitasking is a big thing for apple users but i don't think its going to convert any androider to an iphoner.

Once FroYo comes out and removes the fragmentation of android versions, google will shift its focus to developing applications and I'm sure it will soon catch up with apple's app market but with more free apps...

[Nexus One General] mafaesto:
Actually, this is a solid plan to put them right up there with Apple in terms of believability. I mean this to the common user, that it will be a completely customizable os, this might actually unleash a beast upon Apple if they do it right. Think about it, total Android domination because there will finally be a uniform operating system to work with for all manufacturers. Lastly, if true, this could mean the long awaited "catch up" for the Android market towards Apples app market. (don't understand why, more apps doesn't=good apps)
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
One of the first things someone says (almost 90% of the time) is "it multi tasks"... when someone asks what can android do Iphone cant.

You remove that edge, you cant rely on "it does widgets".

IMO it would make people less likely to leave iphone and some that left ok with going back.

Android would then need something else thats truly big like "oh it plays Flash" to hold an edge. Considering the hardware rumors of the iPhone 4g I think its going to be desperately needed.

This is sort of the same boat Apple is in now..Android can now say "we do pinch zoom" so a big Apple + is now gone.

Definitely not knocking the plan. Fragmentation is a bigger issue than say refining copy/paste. I just mean that unlike previous updates theres nothing to be wetting our appetites over. Unless they actually do sneak in some great refinements.
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
Quite interesting xManMythLegend, multi tasking was one of our strong points. Without it, Android won't have much to back it up with - other than our customization, development, open source-ness, flash, color notifications, etc. etc..

What will the new iPhone have that will make it so new exactly? Well multi tasking is quite awesome, and they probably will enable changing the wallpaper.. widgets hopefully won't make it. Hmm, I cant really rebel until I get some more information about this 4th OS...
[Nexus One General] mafaesto:

[Nexus One General] krabman:
Im not sure it needs "great" refinements. It just needs refinement period. All those little things like not being able to adjust the font size in messaging add up. My guess is they will fix some of these things and while individually they are just little niggles, cumulatively they add up to a weaker user experience. The iphone has had hardware weaknesses for years and did at introduction but the user experience has been quite good and handsets moved off the shelf.

I have to agree that if there was anything revolutionary would would have got a whiff of it by now. My guess is however they do plug/fix/remove a whole bunch of those little niggles and this is a good thing that in total should improve the experience for the end user. The hardware aspect on the iphone appears more catch up than leap frog to me.

Proper outlook integration is a fundamental flaw in android for business users. Proper and complete syncing of outlook, both exchange and direct to desktop outlook, should be built in. I understand that google wants to lock users into their services but outlook is pretty much a standard and near ubiquitous. The lack of this one thing will lock out a large number of users at least in the near term foreseeable future. It is my hope they add this in at some point and the sooner the better.

[Nexus One General] p-slim:
Android boasting they can play flash is not a OS upgrade in the least and is not something android should boast about, this is simple software. I believe froyo is going to be actual changes to the os which will bring a slightly different experience.

As for the hardware, by the time the Nexus 2 is ready to be released qualcomm would have completed their 1.3 and the dual 1.5 processors. The Nexus 2 will probably incorporate one of these.
[Nexus One General] enatefox:
No one mentioned the included Portable App Engine. Also should come with Duke Nukem Legend I hear
[Nexus One General] Deleted member 2351944:
Couple things:

First of all, iPhone OS 4 isn't going to offer "true" multitasking. What it's doing is providing an API through which some of the phone's functions can be accessed by an app that is in a suspended state.

For a majority of average users, this will probably be enough. But it's not perfect multi-tasking. It's Apple's attempt to reduce the disadvantages of multi-tasking for non-techie people (apps consuming lots of CPU cycles, battery life destruction).

Second of all, there will still be no widgets which, in my opinion, is one of the primary draws for me towards Android and away from my iPhone.

Third, there will still be the major stumbling block of Apple not allowing true system integration of apps. For instance, they will never allow Google Voice apps (if they allow them in the store at all) to take over the native dialer. You still can't have a Gmail app that is charged with being the default system email app. Without things like this, there's still going to be a fundamental disconnect when customizing the system, and a substantial reason for developers to code for the Android platform.

Fourth, Apple's tight integration of hardware and software mean that, no matter what, people who want choices in their phone's hardware are going to go with Android. If I want a small, metal, unibody phone - Android has one. If I want a big ol' touchscreen and fast processor - Android has one. If I want a physical keyboard - yep, that's Android.

I don't see iPhone OS4 or the new hardware as going to keep me on the iPhone platform. Right now I'm being particularly budget-conscious, so I'm not switching immediately, but there are still a lot of advantages to the Android platform other than "multi-tasking."

The iPhone OS already loads the browser in the background.

[Nexus One General] uansari1:
Why should Google offer proper Outlook integration when they are trying to push companies to use their services, such as Gmail, Gtalk, Google Docs, etc.? Outlook should be a third party project... not a Google priority. We already have Exchange email support... and Google's made it easy enough to synch Outlook calendar with Google Calendar...
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
To spread the popularity of Android for business users (and maybe even corporate adoption as well).

Any bonus that draws people to Android is a good thing. And Google partnering with Microsoft right now would draw A LOT of people to Android, considering Microsoft's OS is still 6 months away.

Make no mistake; if Android can bust onto the business/corporate scene en masse (ie Blackberry's turf), Android will skyrocket (even more so than it already has).

Either way, as long as people are drawn to a non-Apple OS, it's a win in my book :cool:
[Nexus One General] krabman:
I am well aware of why google has not included working outlook integration, like everyone else (apple MS etc) they want to own the world and use us for everything they can get. Why has nothing to do with the fact that lots of people need to fully snyc with outlook and do it without a third party involved in the process. For some this comes down to wired sync, Im one of those. This is basic functionality for business users. Business users buy phones, thats why google should offer proper outlook integration.

Honestly man, did ever wonder why those business syncing solutions are some of the most expensive apps on the market? Its because a lot of people HAVE to have this function. I really like android but the OS will never be more than a kids toy until it can work with grownups.
[Nexus One General] z0phi3l:
I see, something doesn't suit YOUR needs so you throw a tantrum and stomp your feet?

Android is a relatively new OS, of course something that is just over a year old will not be quite as robust as something with years of development.

But you don't care, it's all about you and your pissy attitude
[Nexus One General] krabman:
Stating facts is not giving attitude and Im not exactly sure where you get pissy from. Checking on various possibilities to work around this I found litterly uncounted posts from the many people who need this. Not a surprise since the number of people who have these needs is huge.

Suit my needs? lol
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
Good points by both of you... I wonder how MS feels about facilitating Google Android getting this ability, seeing as how it will take market share from them.
