Does carphonewarehouse still take in phone to repair under manufacture warranty even if you didn't buy it from them??

point is, if you buy it with t-mobile firmware and change it to HTC generic, in theory you can still have it repair by HTC.

[Desire General] rhedgehog:
How do i know? cos i've been using HTC phones since 2002.

cos i've owned HTC phones since 2004

cos i've worked for shops and networks that sell HTC phones and this has always been the case.

as soon as you do anything to change the branding of the device, you have invalidated the warranty.

that's just the way it is. If you want to do these things, go ahead and do them, god knows i do it plenty, but do it knowing the full implications!
[Desire General] yurikg:
Fair enough.

My question however was asking whether I was covered by an HTC warranty even though the handset was obtained by someone else as an upgrade (the OTA update I received was an official HTC/T-mobile one and the phone rom is still branded as such)
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
that's ok then.

If you did the gold card thing, you're SOL.

if you just did the normal update, you're ok.

Tricorder

A mate of mine has this for his Android phone (HTC Desire).

It is brilliant all the sensors actually work.

The only windows mobile apps I can find are about 10 years old and so lame and outdated they are not worth the waste of time. They were written when all the sensors my HD2 has did not exist on things like Compaq handhelds.

Its time someone wrote one for the modern Winmo devices. Shame my programming skills don't stretch to that. Nor does my development environment ( the free Microsoft lite IDE wont program for the mobile environment desktop only sadly).

Can anyone port AOSP 1.6 or higher to our heros with working camera, mms, and sms? I would be willing to donate
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
At the top of the Hero CDMA page is a tab that says sticky ROMS. That is where we hide all the ROMs for the hero.

1.6, everything works except BT and camcorder. You may have to use handcent for sms/mms (or it may not work for you at all, but you will never know until you try):

I thought about tryin to throw n toast n flipz new kernel into a 1.6 Rom I'm hoping good things happen
[Hero CDMA General] skola28:
Keep us updated on the progress! I loved the AOSP ROMS, just didn't love the lack of certain functionality (Camera).

So, now that I hear the camera is working, I'm going to try one or two out!
[Hero CDMA General] Mr. Biggz:
The new kernel doesn't support camera on 2.1 not sure about 1.6
[Hero CDMA General] andyjbmiller:
Tried the 1.6 rom. SMS didnt work so fail on that. I love darchdroid v1 but i really need camera. I really had my hopes up with the official darchdroid v2 coming out. I could care less about over clocking. Darchdroid v1 was faster than any other rom without oc so no point in putting my hardware at risk. I just hate going back to sense UI. I like basic Android. I also see that the GSM Hero and even the g1 have full functioning eclair roms. I'm sure our time will come soon enough
[Hero CDMA General] giovannizero:
I'm afraid we won't get a really solid AOSP for 2.1 until HTC releases the 2.1 source for the hero.

I have a few things on ebay...

I tried to sign into it with no luck. Is there an app out there for ebay?
[HD2 General] toreone:
Ebay

If you cant log in with the internet browser on your phone then you probably will not be able to log in either way...application or not
[HD2 General] DECIM8:
You might try out skyfire or Opera 10. The phone ships with Opera 9. I don't use eBay so I can't say whether either suggested browser will work or not.

If you end up needing an app look at Windows Marketplace (preinstalled) and/or OMarket which can be found with a quick search.
[S740, S743 General] Ben-B:
Anyone using a large car in their s740?

I copied the contents of my 2GB card to a 16GB one, and the phone only recognises it as being 2GB still.

Is there any way of formatting the storage card using the phone?

Or is there a compatibility problem with 16GB cards?
[S740, S743 General] Enricosteph:
I use a 8 GB card in the Rose and it works well....you hat to format the Storage with FAT 32!
[S740, S743 General] strykme:
No problem with 16GB on s743. Yes, format FAT 32
[S740, S743 General] Ben-B:
I've found the answer to my card problem- yesterday some kind soul went to the effort of sending me this message:

I noticed that you purchased a 'private item' from seller xoldskool. This most likely means you purchased some flash device (drive, card, mp3 player). I purchased several 32GB SDHC cards on ebay and discovered that all were fakes. Mine were actually 2GB or 4GB cards that were hacked to appear as 32GB. My computer reports them as having 32GB, but they really do not. The problem with this is that data will become corrupt and lost.

ALL flash media devices are suspect. Please test your device with the free program H2testw v1.4. Search for and download it.

There is information about this problem at SOSFakeFlash. Again, just search for it.

If yours is a fake give them negative followup to warn other buyers.

I opened a Paypal dispute to get a full refund and notified ebay.

I hope this is helpful to you and you don't lose any data.

Regards,

Annoying that I've been scammed, very glad to the guy who went to the effort of telling me!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pdwOnline:
Can't believe it.. It really seems not possible to share my PC Internet connection to my Android phone (HTC Desire), because Android OS simply forgot the option to add a new connection..

It is NOT thetering 3G internet to my desktop, but the other way around..

Sooo easy on a Windows Mobile, Simply possible on Symbian with gnubox. Why suck up my 3G data plan if I have a perfect Internet connection just in front of me most of the time. Of course, at work for example there is no WiFi available.

Bluetooth PAN would be great, it is available on almost every laptop. Wifi Ad-Hoc is also an option, but is not detected by Android. Why? Is Android sponsored by Telco Companies or something?

Searched for a while and found a discussion where someone says: "Yes, if you root your phone, and you are happy to mess around editing the wireless config files to add an ad-hoc wireless connection.

But why is'nt there a simple app to do this?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgcaap:
Alright from what i can understand is a native htc. You havnt rooted right? Do you have warranty from HTC? Because if you do you should use it there should be a maulfunction hardware and we should not do any experiments in order to try fix something wich maybe has a malfunction, and then you loose warranty.

If you dont have the warranty, then please tell me, have you done anything in particuler to make the phone become like this? If yes please tell me exacly what in order to find a suitable solution .
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paloma728:

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgcaap:
thats normal :) is not update but sappimg.img . you can do that but before you should be able to update in fastboot mode without problems.

If you have a firewall remove, sometimes it inteferes.

In case doesnt update in fastboot the offficial HTC update read and follow instructions:

http://translate.google.pt/translat...ss.C3.A1rio_para_fazer_o_processo&sl=pt&tl=en

Read everything, Skip the create the gold card method.

and do exacly as is written in english (You dont need to format the card)

Basicly is:

Download http://rapidshare.com/files/267446145/2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip

insert on your SD card. run in Hboot (Down volume + back)

The phone is going to update the new rom. Be patient, the first time takes around 5-10 min most of the times.

download the hboot: http://rapidshare.com/files/247838950/update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2005-signed.zip

change the name to update.zip and copy to the SD card. Turn on the phone pressing power+home and it'll enter in safe mode. In safemode apply update.zip .

Then you should have something as: http://www.androidpt.info/images/d/d5/Magic0014_4.jpg

Then you'll flash a recovery so that you can install a rom :)

Create a shortcut to the .exe you want to run. Rename it to 'EndKeyLNK' and copy it and the extracted 'EndKey.exe' attached below to the windows folder. Now long pressing end key will launch the exe. I did not create this i found it though i cant remember who did create it.

Hey buddy,

If you're still interested - basically what you gotta do is copy the endkey.exe to the Windows folder, and then create a shortcut of the program, and rename it as endkeylnk.lnk and copy that to the Windows folder as well.

I just integrated all the steps and made a cab file (I also happen to have the exe file for Slide2Shutdown). So nothing needs to be done manually. Just install the cab, and voila ... long-press-end-key runs the Slide2Shutdown program.
