it honestly sounds like they gave you a whole new phone judging from the imei change

Sent from my HTC Magic using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Orionscrest:
It's not a new phone, it's still got my screen protector on the front (I know this coz I messed up the corner of it when putting it on), still has the mp3 ringtone that I had assigned which was on my sd card (the sd card was never sent to them) and I filled the left homescreen with icons before sending it, none of which had been removed or even moved around.

It's definitely my phone. Just a new pcb in it, and has been flashed.

So, my 'unknown' question still remains unanswered ;)

something about this site makes me think its not that good, and no my wifi was not turned on lol
[HD2 General] ProjektFuze:
yea.. i also think that mobile speed test isn't reliable... it always gives me different results... that aren'teven close to each other... i've bee hoping that someone could rrecommend a good site to find out what speed my mobile phone is running... CNET is good... but no option for mobile phones...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InspectorFrost:
Hi

I had a t-mobile desire, i rooted with pauls instruction and zip.

I have a problem with sending mms to some phones and have read that an unroot will solve this

Question, if i unroot with generic HTC rom (1.15.405.4) will i then be able to download and install new roms that occasionally appear on the HTC site ?

i kinda think that might be possible because im gonna be unbranded ....right?

or am i all confused ?

anyone !?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abc27:
Yes you will. The only way to rebrand your phone would be to install a T Mobile rom (Why you would do that is beyond me :p)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InspectorFrost:
Sweet, its the answer i was looking for.....and, really thats all i wanted to do in the first place !!!

Just got a little confused between rooting and debranding !!!

(as long as i can get updates as and when they appear on HTC's site, i'm happy)

Cheers
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InspectorFrost:
One more question please

This is the guide i will follow, from madaco site

The Guide:

1.Make sure your goldcard is in your phone (If Required)

2.Turn your Desire on

3.Connect it to a Windows PC

4.Run the HTC RUU

5.Let it run

6.& YOUR DONE!

Question, do i double click ruu.exe from my pc or from my phone !?...i'm guessing PC?

(Sorry if its a dumb question!)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunay:

I want to help please

My kaiser was promoted after the battery became not complete today, and Wi-Fi no longer works on

Please note that I tried all the radio and spl after the use of Ultimate-X2.V11.Premium

With that process to work before the battery had been replaced with the update for two days and I received the Wi-Fi

IPL-v1.00

SPL-v1.10.0000

mo-bo has some problems like i.e. USB is not working for synchronizing and upgrade, charging is OK, microdrive is not accessible to the only option to upgrade remains via SD card

today during hard reset .... I am stuck on loop of factory reset which is supposed to do hard reset but it does not

after powering up (after completing steps on the screen) the screen is snow white and nothing happens

when I take out the battery and put it back in ... it still gets me to the same point i.e. to hard reset screen yes/no (i.e. press action to restore factory default, press camera key to exit)

can anyone please tell me :

1. how to upgrade my SPL ?

2. how to solve a/m problem ?

and possibly where to find the latest wm60 English ROM for my spl that I can install from SD card

[Droid Incredible General] oim415:
Hello everyone. New to this forum and so far I have found it to be very helpful so thanks to everyone who shares their wisdom and knowledge. First of all let me say that as a faithful BB owner, I felt a bit guilty switching to Android but the DI was too compelling to pass up. So far it has not disappointed. I absolutely love me phone, except for one major quirk. Namely, the address information from Gmail contacts all goes into the Street field in the People app. I have read the threads on Gmail's forum on this and know that for some odd reason Gmail is not following industry standard of using separate fields for the components of the street address. I'm less concerned about pointing fingers than finding a workable solution for this issue.

I work on a MAC and use Entourage. I had been using Missing Sync to synchronize my contacts in Entourage with the Contacts on my BB and then using Google Sync to synchronize my BB with Gmail. I'd like to have the same configuration with my DI.

If I add or change an address in the People App, the change is sync'd with Gmail and all is fine. If I however make any change to a contact in Gmail, after sync the address info is f'd up. which is then propagated to my Entourage.

One workaround would be to limit doing my edits to my phone and Entourage. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Sorry for length of this post.

Thanks,

Oscar
[Droid Incredible General] Kerensky97:
This is my first Android phone so sorry for the noobish question.

Back on Windows Mobile HTC put in a 4th "sound settings" option called Automatic.

Normal, Vibrate, Silence, Automatic

When in Automatic mode the phone would switch to Vibrate any time you had a scheduled appointment on your calendar. So you didn't have to worry about your "Dancing Queen" ringtone going off when you schedule an important after work meeting because it fell outside the time-frame of some app with limited options.

Does this automatic option exist on the Incredible and I'm missing it.

Or is there an app that sets your phone to vibrate dynamically based on your appointment calendar and not just some simple setting within the app?
[Droid Incredible General] syntrix:
I didn't see it at first glance, but I remember this feature! Pretty handy if you forget to silence your phone in a meeting, and all my meetings are synced to my phone's calendar.
[Droid Incredible General] elbebo:
I used to use an app called Locale by two-forty am or something, I forgot the developer's name and my phone just died so I can't check. But it looks like it's no longer free although the app still looks very promising. Do a search in Market cause I'm sure there are more that will do the same and are free as well. Also check this video out:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzlFlK-1dNY

At about 9:54 the guy in the video talks about a feature on the phone called polite ringer. It can be useful if you forget to mute the phone or if your app for some reason forgets to do it for you. The whole video is very informative as well even if you already know about most of the phone's features. I hope this helps! Good Luck!!
[Droid Incredible General] balaams_ass:
I miss my Omnia and the etiquette mode. Place the phone screen down on a table and it went to vibrate mode.
[Droid Incredible General] Capt.D:
That is one feature of my ex-iPhone that I really liked...1 click of the switch ad it shut up!!!!
[Droid Incredible General] OnceAMatrixMan:
Plus 1. I miss Mobile Shell on my old WinMo. I'm using ToggleSettings now which is free and does a good job with settings changing based on time, but it does nothing based on meetings.
[Droid Incredible General] djyosnow:
To Funny...

YEAH I miss my Omnia (& touch shell) The screen was so wig giddy whack, which was after a month of use & the dreaded lock screen. Never got a Omnia II because it did not have an optical mouse? I guess my incredible is okay to above average. I hate the aspect ratio of the wallpaper. WTF lolz I wish I could have a wallpaper per each screen or have it re-size to the screen, especially for caller id? Also i'm not terribly fond of the HTC scenes ui it's almost useless.

[Droid Incredible General] qmartman711:
several apps are out there- FlipSilent, Turn Silent- and they seem to cover customized silencing too!
[Droid Incredible General] larsdennert:
Auto task keys off the calendar descriptions. There is a ringer silence widget out there too. (Apps)
[Droid Incredible General] Kerensky97:
It seems none of those really tie into calendar. Shh! auto-silencer allows you to setup times where the phone goes silent but it's seems king of hit and miss. Locale looks the best with ton's of options for setting when things are silent, but it's not free.

I think I might try out locale for a couple days. After getting a phone call at 1:30am and not being able to get back to sleep I need something to better manage automatic silent times.
[Droid Incredible General] loyunsang:
There's another app call "setting profiles" that does what you what. It does basically the same thing as locale minus the plugins. You can set profiles to calendar, time period, schedule period, location and more. It's also a lot cheaper. I think it's $3 compare to $10 for locale. I came from windows mobile as well. This is one thing I really wanted from android. It took me a while to find it. But I think settings profiles takes the cake for its features and price point.

Oh I forgot to add that it comes with a widget where you can place on your homescreen so that you can toggle profiles manually. On the widget, it also lets you set a timer for the profile. For example, when I go to a movie, I can toggle the silent profile for 2 hrs and it will go silent until the time expires. After that it will automatically revert to your default profile.
[Droid Incredible General] Kerensky97:
That's pretty cool. It does do just about everything Locale does except the plugins. The free lite version even does most of the stuff I need it to.

My phone has today just started locking / freezing for no obvious reason.

It has taken over an hour for it to restart normally.

The phone was connecting via active sync and I was able to produce the attached screenshot via mymobiler.

I could browse the phone via my desktop and tried renaming the finger menu apps with no effect.

anyone any ideas?

I installed Reefer's load on my TMo TP2 and it loads and works fine but I noticed while in Android the phone seems to get kind of warm. I searched here to see if there were any threads on this already but didn't have much luck.

Are there some settings I need to tweak to prevent this from happening or something I missed? It only gets warm in when booted to android in winmo it's fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] outbackvandy:
I also noticed the heat while in Android mode. Could it be related to the battery/power management is not fully functional yet? A fully charged battery on WM environment shows as 5% a lot of times in Android.

or you can use the MJG utility found in the andboot folder in your SD... (you can also run it thru PC if you plug your phone in as Disk Drive... for faster downloading)... it downloads and extracts anything new that can be newlified... different zImages are like different SYS builds on WM -somewhat

[Android Software Development] pikipirs:
Hi!

I am developing an application which connects a Wiimote to a bluetooth enabled android phone/device.

I did this by interfacing with the native bluez bluetooth library directly, rather than via the Android API. The reason for this is that Android API doesn't support HID devices, which a Wiimote is.

A problem now is that on some devices, mostly those sold by HTC, my app simply doesn't work. After calling the hci_get_route(NULL), this function should return an id of the first bluetooth device available (most likely 0), but instead returns ERNODEV (-1) as if no bluetooth device is available.

I suspect it has something to do with our beloved HTC grossly modifying something in the libbluetooth library to make this fail to work.

Has anyone ever done this kind of bluetooth interfacing?

How could I make this work?

Rooting the phone and replacing a library or two would be fine too.

For a list of working and non-working devices, check out the 2nd post of this thread.
[Android Software Development] waffles004:
HTC support

I just sent a customer service message to HTC about this issue. I hope they can get back to me with a "we'll work on it" message, or something. I really want this on my incredible. I'm new to coding like this, but could you disguise the Wiimote as another kind of device?
[Android Software Development] cauli:
Just a response from someone equally interested in a solution. I'm trying to set up a bluetooth keyboard (Freedom Pro) with my gsm Hero running the 1.5 based MCR 3.2. Available drivers (Freedom's own, BlueInput & KeyPro) should work with 1.5, but HTC devices, especially the Hero, seem to be lacking something that is present in most 1.5 builds.

Investigating, I find the same issue of no route to device, because there is no known device. AIUI when bluetooth is turned on hciattach is used to establish a link to the hardware. At that point an hciconfig should list the hci0 device as present but down. However I find this list remains empty at all times.
[Android Software Development] waffles004:
I found this for keyboards.

Since I can't post the link, it's called "KeyPro for Android"

Google "keypro android" and click the first link.

Maybe that could help. It says it works with any android device above 1.5, however, I did read that some keyboards use a different type of bluetooth profile, SPP rather than HID.

I haven't heard back form HTC yet either.

EDIT: Upon reading your post again, you have tried this. Sorry, my bad.
[Android Software Development] cauli:
Thanks for looking though :) The Freedom Pro is switchable between spp & hid profiles, so I figured I was safe, lol. Not with HTC's butchered 1.5 bt it seems.
[Android Software Development] tobren:
Did you ever try to use the most likely id 0 on an HTC device? Even though the call to get the id fails?

Maybe you could use also the Android API to synchronize if a device is present and then use the id that Android API gives you?

Just some thoughts since I would love to see that App running on my Desire with Snesoid :)
[Android Software Development] tobren:
Edit: Double post
[Android Software Development] pikipirs:
Believe it or not, I actually tried this. Unfortunately, the next command (to bind the bluetooth adapter) also fails, and of course every command after that one because the adapter is not bound.

Thanks for the idea anyway.
[Android Software Development] rubber soul:
usb

does the wii remote have usb connectivity? could it be possible to have the communication pass through that connection rather than bluetooth? one advantage of this would be increased battery life and probably better compatibility across models.

i'm sure some people would prefer bluetooth, but i figure i'll always be using it very close to my phone so i can see the screen, so the wired option is actually a bit more attractive (considering battery performance).

i know ps3 has usb connectivity as well, you just might need an adapter (mini to micro).
[Android Software Development] cauli:
I'm pretty sure the first answer is no - our wii is round at a friend's atm. However even if it was yes, you'd need more than an adapter. USB operates with one device as master & the other as slave. To allow you to connect slave devices to your phone it would need to be in host mode. Some mobile phone hardware implementations support this, however I don't know of any mainstream Android kernels which do. Even if you workaround that, you're left with the huge issue that slave devices can assume it's safe to draw power from the USB bus which could do nasty things (tm) to a lower power device like a mobile. This can be worked around via a powered hub, but it all gets very messy.

I looked into this a few months ago, hoping I'd be able to use a usb keyboard with my Hero. I ended up with a BT keyboard instead. Of course that doesn't work either but for completely different reasons, as hinted at by this thread. Hopefully a 2.1 ROM will solve that, but that's the subject of numerous other threads.
[Android Software Development] jigglywiggly:
Uh, just throwing stuff out, what if you have a pc with two bluetooth adapters, it connects to the wii mote, and then broadcasts that in someway the android api can understand?

Also please actually try working on something with a rooted phone, the HTC EVO 4g is rootable, and I will make man love(no homo) if you get it working.

Either one works lol.
[Android Software Development] pikipirs:
Using a PC as a proxy is kind of useless. If you have a wiimote connected to a PC, you might as well play games on the PC itself (there are nes/snes/sega/etc emulators for PCs too).

At this moment, rooting doesn't help with the problem either.
[Android Software Development] jigglywiggly:
@1 True

Do we think that this will/could be fixed in HTC's Froyo update for 2010 devices? Not looking for definite answers, just a ponderin'.
[Android Software Development] shdwknt:
well if you send the null pairing code to the wiimote from the default bluetooth pairing screen.. it will fail to communicate with the wiimote too :(
[Android Software Development] cauli:
Doesn't it work in stock/vanilla Eclair? I thought the main problem was with Cupcake, though HTC seem to have done weird things to every stock firmware. I read that removing Sense from a 2.1 HTC ROM breaks bluetooth. Go figure. And there was I thinking Sense was a gui enhancement :rolleyes:
[Android Software Development] lion2:
I contacted HTC about their bluetooth issues and just received this response
[Android Software Development] waffles004:
I contacted HTC about this issue with my incredible and I basically got the same answer except the guy was more knowledgeable and said that other people were complaining about certain bluetooth issues. I think they know what they did and are waiting to fix it in Froyo to be easy for them. No worries though, should be comin' in a few weeks. I can't freakin' wait. I have soooooooooo much Pokemon and Mario to play. :)
