[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] combat goofwing:
had my TP2 nearly a year but recently i have noticed the screen has like a rectangle shape oil slick type mark on itvery noticable and seems to be getting worse anyone else had this??

its as though there's water under the screen protector but when i remove the SC its still there
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] burtonsnow8:
search newton ring.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eTechUncut:
newtons ring??? kind of the case. the "oil slick" is mearly trapped condensation between the digitizer and the top plastic covering that you catually touch(the plastic you put the screen protector on). moisture seeps in through the bottom keys and earpiece in forms of vapor and liquid. this occurs when you have your phone in your pocket or use it in humidity(shower or weather)...congrats, you ve trapped your sweat lol. the reason why its rectangle is because the screen/digitizer and top plastic are not set flush together. as you know, the top plastic is very flexable so you can take your finger and feel the various componets in the empty spaces. i can confirm my finding because a few months back, i replaced my tp2 screen. i seen it had the oil slick before i opened it and before i put humpty back together again, i wiped under the plastic screen and felt a slight moist film. i tried to guess how the hell water got in and i concluded by a salty electronic taste...yeah i smelt and tasted it...that it was sweat. i always carried my phone in my front pocket and over time, the sweat built up. after a wipe with electronic cleaning cloths, an air dry and then an air can blow(i love my phone lol), i put it back together and bam...no oil slick. another way to think of my theory is, you know when you swim with your watch and condensation builds up on the inner quartz and makes it look foggy?...same thing here. only thing different is that there is only one flat surface and not 2 like inside the phone so the moisture wont look like an oil spill, it will just be foggy.:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] combat goofwing:
so how do i open the screen up to get rid is it easy enough to do or will bloww warm air over it do it ???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eTechUncut:
there are lots of vids on how to disassemble the tp2. check youtube. just to let you know, its a long process. you have to take apart the entire phone just to get to the screen...good luck.

ps i would post the vid link but im typing this off my tp2. if you cant find a good video, i will link one here later.

Adding a calender event is odd, I select a day, say Monday and select add and it opens up the page for inputing an event, BUT for tuesday!To add an event for monday I have to select sunday then add and event and the input page will be set for an event on monday!! Am I missing something or is that just plain daft. I realise once one the page you can then select any day but every other device I ever owned allowed you to go to a day in the calender and then if you wished to add an event the first option would be for that day...as appose to another day entirely!

My grey HTC Dream (g1) Keyboard black light is basically burnt out. Its showing max 30-50% of the light it should. With the lights off, there is no keys lit-up after the "a" key, going to towards the number keys.

How do i fix this?

I need to unroot my Desire by flashing the stock rom but always getting error 140 saying bootloader wrong version??

I am using RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.19.707.6_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_124362_signed Rom to unroot but always saying error, I have using the guide by modaco to unroot but not working at all??

Can anyone help me please
[Desire General] inoxas:
do you use a gold card?
[Desire General] EroThraX:
That ROM isn't Bootloader/HBOOT 0.80.

This ROM is HBOOT 0.80:

http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
[Desire General] claudefrog:
This ROM isn't for HBOOT 0.80 either, I have goldcard and my Desire only ever lets me unroot to the Virgin RUU Rom.
[Desire General] Aleq:
This one worked for me with HBOOT 0.80

RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_T2_Radio_32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe
[Desire General] GCQ:
Same problem for myself, this is what worked for me on Bootloader 0.80:

1) Using goldcard in the phone.

2) Run this RUU

RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe

3) Plug phone in when prompted on the RUU.

4) Done...

I spent 3 days trying to get this to work, used countless different RUU which gave me the 130 error, in the end this was the one that worked for me. Hope you have the same success...:-)
[Desire General] Aleq:
Exactly, as GCQ, just 2 days of nightmare. I managed to flash some ROMs, but they kept restarting the device every 10 minutes :)) The same happened even after FroYo update without goldcard and not wiped system (I'd say not having the goldcard was the issue)
[Desire General] claudefrog:
This does not work with 0.80 HBOOT ! ! !

There is no RUU for the 0.80 Bootloader Version.
[Desire General] teppic74:
Your HBOOT is irrelevant. You can only flash an RUU that has an equal or higher software number. So if you're on 1.21.405.2 you cannot flash 1.19.x.
[Desire General] ferreinf:
done it, using this RUU :

[Touch Cruise Android Development] SuperJMN:
Hi everyone! I'm here again to give you good news.

I would like to thank Incubus for his generosity and for his support. We would be nowhere if people like him didn't share their knowledge.

I got into some files and updates and I finally stumbled upon a working set of files that will allow you to start Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in our devices. I made it so we can install it without the need of updates. This build I modified is ready to work with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

* For your convenience, I've uploaded the new updated build for you to try it out:

Incubus26Jc's Super Eclair Lite 2.1 Release 5:* http://www.mediafire.com/?jzzygmkjyzm

You've got to use with the latest NBH > http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D. Please, make sure you have a NBH file released on 07-05-2010.

Don't forget that I only merged all the stuff and it worked like magic.

I really hope it will work for you too.

I'm now installing things via Wi-Fi and sending files to my Polaris using bluetooth!

Please, tell me if it works.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] loscassapalle:

_WiFi doesn't search networks

_camera doesn't work (error message processocom.android.camera)

How about the speed of this éclair build working on our Polaris？

Comparing Myn's Warm Donut.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] SuperJMN:
It's a bit slower than Myn's.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] loscassapalle:
any suggest?:)
[Touch Cruise Android Development] SuperJMN:
It's strange. Wifi works for me. The camera won't work because it has not been ported to Eclair yet.

By the way, is there anybody that has tried out my modification with success? Please, send feedback.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] DmK75:
Bluetooth File Transfer

How program you use for send/receive files via BT?
[Touch Cruise Android Development] SuperJMN:
To receive you just have to turn BT on and pair the two devices. It will notify you when an incoming file is waiting (you've got to accept it).

To send I use an app that is named Bluetooth OPP Put Lite. Install it, go to ASTRO File Explorer and choose Send from the context menu. You will see a new option to send the file. I used it and it really works!
[Touch Cruise Android Development] DmK75:
Thanks for advice!
[Touch Cruise Android Development] despou:
Well, wifi scanning is not working :) Wifi turns on but it does not scan. BT works fine.

Thanx ;)
[Touch Cruise Android Development] loscassapalle:
maybe we could try with WiFi scanner, but without connection we can't go to the market (free:p)...
[Touch Cruise Android Development] ztitan:
I used the .nhb of dzo's latest version (2010-05-07), then bt and wifi are working well.

[Touch Cruise Android Development] idreadful:
Could the radio rom be the issue? Which one do you use and which ones others? Lets compare?

Did you combine Kaiser wifi update for eclair and wlan.ko from dzo? That combination worked for me few days ago, and what was interesting that without dzo's wlan.ko wifi coud be enabled, but no scan.

Hello,

Does anyone have Super Hero 2.1 on his polaris with Wifi, input audio during calls and also 3d effect from hero/weather clock working ?

Maybe someone have camera and bluetooth working too ?

Could you please help me ?

[Touch Cruise Android Development] mrkite38:
I assume someone created a firmware file? Who did it / where is it?
[Touch Cruise Android Development] SuperJMN:
Have no idea! I just merged some files and it worked. I think it worked for some more people. Basically I added to the androidinstall.tar file every file in the wifi-BT-update for Kaiser, with the wlan.ko that DZO compiled in the Android Polaris Kernel Development thread, and left the "build.prop" and "sysinit.rc" files untouched.

You can check the .tar. I think it works (at least, it did for me, although now I'm using Myn's because it's fastests and more stable).
[Touch Cruise Android Development] josaco:
Hi friend,

First sorry for my english ( soy español compañero ), i´m using the Myn´s package with zimage of paipo and the wifi/bt patch. He runs smooth and fast, but dont work bt, dont work gps and cell location....

I don´t know thah nbh i must have flash, and i wan´t lost a lot of funtionality.

I am trying to root my Dream I just bought. I am in Italy for 5 months. I have the HTC Hero by Sprint and I have rooted the Hero twice. So I have a good idea of what I am doing.

I have searched and read for 4 days now and to no avail can not get it.

That being said I need some help. Here are the specs:

Dream PVT 32B Ship S-ON

HBOOT 1.38.0000 (DREA20000)

CPLD-4

RADIO-2.22.16.19

FEB 28 2009,28:40:30

Model number - HTC_Dream

Firmware V 1.1

Basedband version 62.41S.20.13U_2.22.16.19

Kernal Version - 2.6.25-deb9915c herbert@and18-2 #11

Build Nubmer 1.58.901.2 Plat-1.0_gms-138112 CL#13773 release-keys

Can I get directions on which Recovery to flash and how to?

I have tried loading Cyanogen's Recovery 1.4

I can not find Haykuro's root kit download.

I have tried loading from Terminal Emulator

I have tried telnetd with a telnet app

I have tried the French version: http://wiki.smartphonefrance.info/fi...-htcdream.ashx

All with no success.

When trying from the cmd line: adb shell I get the $. And I put fastboot boot recovery.img it come back with accessed denied.

I type in SU and is says denied.

Same thing from the Terminal.

Any help would be MUCH MUCH grateful.

Thank you in advance from a 5 year user and hacker of HTC phones.

You are not on RC29/RC7. The security flaw we exploit in order to root our phones has been fixed in every firmware update. Follow this guide for help:

[G1 General] davedug:
Thank you. I will take a look and get back to you.

Thank you so much. It really does mean a lot. I hate not having 2.1. Had it in the states on my Hero. Now I want it in Italy.
[G1 General] davedug:
Still a problem...

Followed the directions.

I did a fresh format of FAT32.

Downloaded the Europe (since i bought the phone in Italy) and I Decided to download the US....You will see why later.

It goes through the following setup once i hit camera button and power and then action button to start update:

Parsing DREAIMG.nbh

1 -7 some info...yada yada

Do you want to start update?

Yes i do.

Then it says:

Update is in progress……

Reading images……

Then it says:

Update in progress….

Checking Signature…..

Comes back with:

Model ID incorrect!

Update Fail!

Do you want to reboot device?

What is wrong? Thank you in advance for you help.
[G1 General] Ninjineer:
Did you use RC29 or RC7? Whichever you used, it's the wrong one for your reason, use the other. :D
[G1 General] davedug:
I tried the RC7 first got the response posted.

Then I tried the RC29 and got the same response. So both of them are not working for me. Any thought? And I reformatted both times. Just to make sure. Thank you for your much appreciated help.
[G1 General] Ninjineer:
Ok, when you are flashing the DREAIMG.nbh deal first, right?
[G1 General] davedug:
flashing....

correct. i format the card to fat32. then i move the europe version and rename it correctly because the nbh is wrong. and when i try to flash it goes throgh the steps to the point of installing and give the error message. any thoughts on model nubere? i posted most of the phone detail. whay else do i need? thank you.
[G1 General] davedug:

fastboot...

The post says to put in fastboot and attach to your computer. Problem is that when I do this the computer does not recognize. So I go to the usb page to download and its an dead link. I tried finding the usb driver but not succesful. Any thoughts?
[G1 General] davedug:
USB...

So i decided to use my Macbook pro and still nothing. It recognizes the device when its not in fastboot mode.

I typed in fastboot just like the directions said and nothing really happened. So i decided to try and to the recovery. Typed in fastboot boot recovery.img and it said cannot load image. Then i went into adb shell and put su just for the fun of it and it said access denied.

Any thoughts?:)
[G1 General] davedug:
Any Thoughts?

Any Thoughts?
[G1 General] mejorguille:
You are probably going to need a goldcard then. Check either the rogers threads or the magic threads for more info on how to do that.
[G1 General] davedug:
gold card

Tried the gold card approach. When I put the phone in fastboot mode and attach it to my computer it is not recognized under adb devices. I have been looking for a good download link for the usb driver for that mode. I even tried it on my mac. Mac could only see it when the phone was in normal mode using adb devices. In fast boot its not recognizable. Any thoughts or links for the usb?
[Desire General] Borgini:
Anyone know anything about the materials the desire screen is made of? I noticed htc introced an olephobic screen fro the Hero but did not use this for the Desire, anyone know why? It seems quite effective in reducing finger grease on the Hero so just interested what prevented its use on the Desire. Which begs the question whats the composition of the Desire screen and is it as durable/scratch resistant as say the iphone 3gs which does seem very durable. I'd rather not stick a screen protector on my desire screen as a: I can never get them on perfectly and b:the screen is so awesome for viewing images I dont want anything to reduce the viewing quality. That said if its less durable I'll put one on! Be glad of any input, knowledge or experience. Thanks.
[Desire General] mcgon1979:
Been using the phone for 5 weeks now. No marks on the screen. I keep it in a small micro-fibre pouch and isolate it from keys or coins in pocket.

I'm sure it can be scratched though. i.e. if you had fragments of salt/sand in your pocket etc. I don't use a screen protector for the reasons you outlined (awesome screen) but I do take care of it.
[Desire General] andycted:
the display is quite prone to smudging, however I've always used screen protector which don't affect the display at all and actually make it a lot less prone to attract grease.

Funny thing is that my 15 € martin fields would attract lots of fingerprints, while this 50c one is really oleophobic !
[Desire General] cosmicharade:
Any advice on cleaning the screen?
[Desire General] mcgon1979:
Microfiber cloth. No chemicals or wax/polish as suggested by others. Anything like that could damage the rubber gasket around the glass. I think if you have just used your fingers on the screen, it just has finger grease on it, so just use a microfiber cloth and it sucks all that grease right off. Clean the cloth occasionally. Job done.

BTW, if you have clean dry hands you can avoid much of the fingerprints you would expect on the screen. Although in hot climates or certain situations its unavoidable. Microfiber for the win.
[Desire General] gens6200:
To me the screen seems just as oleophobic as on the Hero - As it's been pointed out many times, oleophobic doesn't mean that the screen won't smudge - The main difference is that it's a lot easier to wipe clean compared to other screens. The Desire is exactly the same as the Hero in this regard - I can normally wipe it clean just by wiping once or twice against my shirt - On other phones it'll require a microfiber cloth and actual sustained wiping.
[Desire General] Whiterin:
Not sure about the materials, but I have noticed that the Desire's screen is much much more resistant to smudging then the screen on the Magic, easier to clean too.

Seems to me like Google could sell both with the carriers in a traditional fashion and also sell unlocked/unbranded phones online. Same as SE selling its X10 via carrier but also selling unbranded in Sony Style. Nokia and others have done this as well.

With this thought in mind I was wandering around Google trying to find a good spot to leave such a suggestion and couldn't find anything which didn't say to me, "message going to don't care and I would be totally wasting my time". So the first question is, where would be the best place to start bending Googles ear? What do you think of finding what seems to be the most likely place and trying to get folks from the various android forums to go there and put in their two cents? While many folks might not have been interested in the N1 that doesn't mean they don't want to see an N2 come along that might be a form factor that suits their needs better. Im spitballing here guys, throw down with your opinions. I say lets be heard!

Those of you who are not getting my concept have no fear, Paul will be along to say it better than I did soon enough.

Google jumped feet first into the the retail business. Before this I don't think they ever sold a tangible product(?) in retail.

From the movements they are making it seems they don't want to be retailers.
