[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] les987:
I can't seem to find the answer to this. I installed a rom a long time ago and it changed my initial boot screen to one that shows PPC Geeks. Is there any way to change this or get rid of it? I have installed dozens of roms since then, but it never changes. There's probably a simple solution, but I can't find it...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scotttr:
Have you flashed a stock rom?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] les987:
Just did, first time going back and it worked, thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Glad your issue was fixed. Next time, please do not open a new thread for questions. Instead, post in the Q&A thread in this section. Thanks for understanding.

Dear Users

After a tragic experience with flashing my Polaris using activesync connection and a power failiure in the process which caused me a lot of trouble and a defective USB on the device it self. I have decided to share the best way to flash with all other novice users like myself. The procedure can even HardSPL provided you have the relevant nbh file.

In my humble opinion one should not use activesync /computer to flash for many reasons.

This procedure is very simple.

1. Take a MicroSD or SD card appropriate for your device and format it.

2. Put the ROM file you want to flash on the root of the SD and rename it POLAIMG.nbh

3. Put this card into your device and press camera + power+ hard reset (hidden button) and let go the hard reset, the device will go into bootloader and automaticlly start flashing the rom image.

Thats it you are done and no problems getting stuck into bootloader or problems related to activesync and different OS versions.

I have even flashed my old HTC Atom using same technique only the file name there is not PLOAIMG

Enjoy, Respects to all the chefs and other developers

[Touch Cruise General] chris10230:
great but isn't it

POLAIMG.nbh

Just some may how to say get stuck on the wrong name :)
[Touch Cruise General] t_malik:
Absolutely right POLAIMG.nbh

Regards
[Touch Cruise General] SuperJMN:
I think it only works with non-SDHC cards. I tried with my 16 GB card and it didn't read the .nbh :(
[Touch Cruise General] t_malik:
I have tried 3 different MicroSD cards and it seems that its the best if the card be a 256 MB in size and only containing the required POLAIMG.nbh file in root.

On the ATOM model the card was a standard SD card 1GB in size and it worked fine as well.

Respects and regards

[Droid Incredible General] Humpa:
For instance, right now in Settings > Applications > Running Services > my phone shows all the apps with nothing listed where it normally shows the individual memory usage, though it still shows the time the app has been running.

Then on the bottom it shows:

Avail: 84MB in 0.00B in 38 / Other: 0.00B in 4

Though there is no other indication and the phone still runs perfectly, something is causing Running Services to have issues showing the running apps memory usage, it seems.

If I reboot, it will be correct for a while. I have not been able to determine which app/widget/process is causing this. I don't feel like uninstalling everything, since nothing seems to be affected by this. I'm hoping someone may already know, or has the same issue as me and we can compare.

I'm using More Icons, Better Cuts, Weather Widget w/Forecast add-on, Pure Music widget, News & Weather (GenieWidget.apk), and Battery Widget. That's all for 3rd party stuff that's running or on my home screens.
[Droid Incredible General] mobilehavoc:
I have same issue and the only thing we're both running is GenieWidget...did you try removing that and rebooting to see if it fixes it?
[Droid Incredible General] Humpa:
I believe this problem is Incredilbe wide. It is just that most people haven't noticed.

The first time you go to Running Services it is correct. It is only incorrect once you go there and back out of it, and then go there again. If you do this without rebooting, then the memory info will be blank/0.00B. Reboot and it is back to normal.

EDIT: and, yes, I've removed GenieWidget News app and the bug is still there.
[Droid Incredible General] mobilehavoc:
Ok well luckily like you it doesn't seem to have an effect on anything so that's good.

Hi, can anyone please assist to extract the cabs for the 1.72 ROM upgrade as posted in the HTC UK website? I heard the camera flash problem is fixed after this ROM upgrade.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] quasi_mojo:
the camera software in the 1.72 rom (the one i installed yesterday) is version 6.26 (build 1922.3428) if that helps...???

and yes! the camera flash problem is solved for me! it still does the 2-stage flash but i think they've tweaked the 'shutter' response...

pics in the dark look much better now :D

Were did you find the 1.72 Rom Upgrade for HD2?

I just been on the site and the latest ROM update was 1.66 WWE released back in January.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tidus18:
You need to check region. Latest ROM for SEA region is 1.66.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] adamjee:
I tried downloading the new ROM, unfortunately it doesnt install on my HD2 saying incompatible with your phone even though I got mine from Vodafone. No clue whats going wrong there.

You can also download the 1.72 ROM from the vodafone website.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dexterslab:
dont know about anyone else, but i cant see a 1.72 update for any region on the HTC website... UK/SEA or otherwise :confused:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
ok... so just wanted to know if anyone else is having this problem with mixzing:

I was having issues with my phone never sleeping. I couldn't figure it out so I started from a freshly flashed rom... my phone was sleeping just fine... i set everything up just how I liked it.... phone continued sleeping fine... since my phone was sleeping ok, i backed it up.... when I swapped music player (htc-mixzing) my phone stopped sleeping again... i rebooted, and my phone still wouldn't sleep... when I went back to my nandroid, surely enough, it was sleeping fine again... anyone else notice this??
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:
where do you check to see if your phone is sleeping?

ive noticed for some WIERD reason, when downloading and installing any app from the market, it causes my phone to lose sleep. strange, huh?
[Desire General] paalkr:
Hi all!

I'm pleased to see that root access to the Desire now is obtained, kudos to the developers! I'm tempted to root my device, but I do have some questions:

1) Can I keep the stock ROM after rooting the device?

2) Will I get SuperUser rights with the stock ROM after rooting?

3) Will I be able to by applications from the Market in an originally unsupported region (Scandinavia)?

4) Will I be able to use Apps2SD with the stock ROM after rooting?

5) If I decide to flash a cooked ROM, will I then:

a) Be able to backup my massages and restore them to the new ROM after flashing?

b) Revert back to the original stock ROM? (I guess this is not supported atm)

c) Choose a Norwegian keyboard with Norwegian XT9?

BTW. I have an unbranded and unlocked device bought in Norway.

Hopefully someone can help an Android noob that have converted from the WinMo scene, by answering my question.
[Desire General] jayshah:
I'm going to answer from the perspective that you have no idea to accomplish this yourself.

1) Can I keep the stock ROM after rooting the device?

- No. See (2)

2) Will I get SuperUser rights with the stock ROM after rooting?

- Not unless you install it yourself, and push the su binary to the write-protected /system directory

4) Will I be able to use Apps2SD with the stock ROM after rooting?

- No

5) If I decide to flash a cooked ROM, will I then:

a) Be able to backup my massages and restore them to the new ROM after flashing?

You can find this out yourself. Look for backup applications on the market and see if they offer what you want.

b) Revert back to the original stock ROM? (I guess this is not supported atm)

I've heard you can in order so you can use your warranty; it might be stock or something where HTC can't tell what you've done
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jcky000:
Here's what i got:

1. if i use the setting below for desc.txt, both part0 and part1 run fine

512 256 30

p 1 0 part0

p 0 0 part1

youtube.com/watch?v=ckqV6vKs1wA

May release a XDA version after i'm done!

2. But i'm trying to do a full screen animation with setting like this:

480 800 30

p 1 0 part0

p 0 0 part1

But it would skip the part0 for some reason:confused:

3. Then i tried with another setting:

480 800 30

p 0 0 part1

youtube.com/watch?v=eTRxSfG39_4

It loaded but the fps seems running at 15fps:eek:

This behavior occurs with second setting after it plays right into part1

It seems like it running at 15fps > normal 30fps?

Can anyone give me a hand on this?

Thank you for advance and sorry for my bad English.

After that I have noted that my clock is always lagging behind 10 to 15 minutes daily. I don't know whether it is related to new ROM or other problem.

Also my camera stopped working before installing this ROM, BUT after installing this new ROM, it is not working...

May I request the members to help in this regard...Thanks in advance.

Thank you. Really help....
[XPERIA X10 General] visitador02:
I would not debrand until I found more about two issues:

1. Missing apps from the market

2. Whether PCCompanion or SEUS is able to continue updating the phone (I assume it will continue if the correct ware is used.

As for the AT&T APNs, they do work with most smartphones, at least the Androids.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
You can also use SE website to set the 3g setting for your phone.

Unless it is a metamorph, you can't change only the taskbar. There's a metamorph here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6354081&postcount=1 for the white taskbar, but they use the evdo icons. All you have to do is rename the 3g icons and replace the evdo icons with them.

Ok, so I have a couple questions on how to do this. My Android Keyboard keeps reverting back to the HTC sense keyboard. My phone is rooted, and I installed Grdlock's Vanilla keyboard though it keeps reverting back... Is there a way to delete the keyboard? If you tell me how, I'll try (after a Nandroid backup of course)

Also, I would like to know if there is a way to delete the dialer and replace it with one from the droid? Would someone be able to port that over please?

I have searched the forums and google to no avail. Would someone be able to help me please?
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
Update: I dont recommend you get this, the gel one at the bottom of this post is decent.

Finally recieved my case: "Black Rubber Hard Cover Case For Google HTC Nexus One" Link to store/ebay.

Pros:

1) cost: $3.55 shipped

2) fits better in my hand. The phone was too thin and slippery earlier :D

3) still fits in the sleeve. Very tight fit. Update: don't need/use the sleeve anymore.

Cons:

1) The edge where the two halves snaps together is not as seamless as I hoped. Not too visible but you can feel the sharp edges when you hold it.

2) Its harder than I expected. It wont provide much shock-cushioning if I drop it.

3) Shipping took 20 days. :eek:

Update: 5/7/10

-Dropped it a few times after using it and it protected the phone. The case splits open when dropped.

-I don't feel/hear the "clink" sound the uncovered phone makes when placed on hard surfaces.

-I'm saving a lot of time by not using the sleeve. The sleeve is not needed with this. (I have a screen protector too)

-The grip of the phone is excellent.

Update: 6/2/10

- the smooth finish on the case is just a thin layer. underneath is brittle, shiny black plastic.

- my case has lost a piece on the top right and that part does not hold together very well. Maybe one of the drops cracked it..

- ordered a gel case from amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003343AR0
[Nexus One Accessories] leyvatron:
nice. I have one something like this but it doesnt come up so much to the trackball.
[Nexus One Accessories] Chahk:
Two reasons I will never consider putting my N1 in such a case:

Poor heat dissipation. The phone can get warm with heavy use. In a rubber case it WILL get hot, especially during warm weather. Add to that the confines of a pocket and trouble can easily follow. The screen can crack from heat alone, without any external pressure.

It won't fit into the car dock.
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
1) I have a setcpu profile set at 49C

2) Fits perfectly in my ebay car mount:)
[Nexus One Accessories] Chahk:
1) So it underclocks the CPU when it gets too hot? Nice, I never thought of doing that with SetCPU.

2) I should've been more specific. It wouldn't fit into the Google's official Car Dock. I paid $55 for that thing, so I'll be damned if I don't use if because of a case :)
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
yes it underclocks when it gets hot.

I understood what you meant, thats why I used "mount" instead of dock ;)
[Nexus One Accessories] Vandam500:
Of course you can use it, all you have to do is remove the case. When you are done put the case back on the phone. It may "seem" like a lot of work but it really isn't not that bad at all.
[Nexus One Accessories] GldRush98:
I will never understand why people insist on putting hideous ugly cases on their slim and sexy phones. The iPhone suffers from this and so does the Nexus.

You DO realize these phone are designed and tested to be carried as is, right?

Cases are worthless and make your phone ugly and bulky :-\
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
You do realize your feet are designed for walking barefoot right?
[Nexus One Accessories] mythamp:
ROFL!

GldRush98, I also hate putting stuff on the phone for "safety" purposes, but you gotta do it for resell/longevity purposes. I got the case-mate gelli one, but that rubber one of yours looks nicer britoso. On second though, nah! :P
[Nexus One Accessories] smot13:
I absolutely hate having to use a case and a screen protector, but I do it for the resale value. My blackberry got trashed and a case and screen protector would have netted me $300+ for resale.

I believe its even more important for the N1. IMO the N1 will hold more value for longer than your average smart phone. Although I have no data to back that up.
[Nexus One Accessories] nugzo:
I have ACCIDENTALLY dropped 2 iphones and shattered screens in 3 yrs with NO case. Both times it was in my lap when i got out of the car. Both times i had a case for it, but wanted the sexiness that particular day. Not a long drop at all. After putting an ugly bulky otter box on it, i've actually thrown it across the room numerous times to show how durable it is. I do agree they are sexy without the case. But sometimes a hideous case to save yourself a few hundred bucks (or more) is a great idea. To say you could "never understand why" and "Cases are worthless" insinuates you might be quite slow and need descriptive answers or examples so you CAN "understand why." understand now? :D :p oh and some cases are actually quite sexy, otterbox NOT being one of them. Case-Mate has some nice ones with different color rubber inserts. 3 people today told me my phone matched my shirt lol :o
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
updated the OP.
[Nexus One Accessories] britoso:
Updated the OP again. Recommend you do not order this hard case.

But when I put device away and it "goes to sleep", it automatically disconnect wireless but enables 3G data connection. I do not like this default behaviour...

P. S. deleting 3G connection settings is not an option...

Oppisite problem

My WiFi does not go into standby when the screen shuts down on my US T-mo HD2. I had this option on my TP2 and whenever I put the phone to sleep the WiFi would dis-connect and auto re-connect when it woke up so how do I get mine to do this?...Thx...Tj

NVM I figured it out...lol.
[HD2 General] fmarek:
Mine is reconnecting wireless when I wake it up. Trying to figure out how to prevent it disconnect wireless, because when 3G comes in in standby mode, email checker is unable to update messages...

At least a couple of the articles I read seemed to indicate using 3G actually drains the battery more than using wifi....go figure.

Do not know about battery.. but changing registry values from "0" to "1" didnt help :( wireless still off while on idle and 3G is on automaGically... uhh..
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Here's the cab I use for that...I don't know if it just applies the same regedits that jfmckenna posted above, but it seems to work for me. It's one that I used on my TP2 originally, and when I tested it on my HD2 it does keep the wifi connection on when the phone goes into standby.
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
Nah, it's not the 3G that drains it. I would guess that these folks that are having problems are not near a T-Mobile tower usually.

Even if the nearest tower does offer 3G to 2nd-party connections (not likely, this would be a city-to-city agreement), the phone will naturally try and find a T-Mobile tower with 3G support.

This "tower search" is what drains the battery. 3G is much easier on the battery than any other connection, IF you can camp out below a T-Mobile owned tower.
[HD2 General] jfmckenna:
if wifi is still not staying connected go to this thread and download HD2Tweak there is a wifi options and you just need to activate wifi and standbymode. This should do the trick.
[HD2 General] fmarek:
Wow!! Now everything is OK with WiFi, many thanks!

Are there any way to force default email client configured with (gmail via pop3) to notify my about new email while in standby? Just like SMS notification.

I have special sound set for email and it works while I use the phone (beeps on new msg/email). But if email arrives while in idle, phone beeps only if I take it in hand and awake.
