Just wondering why anyone would unroot unless they have to repair it using warranty?

I can think of 1000 reasons to root, but only 1 to unroot.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cten1:
well i might have to unroot cuz i am receiving this rooted and unlocked mytouch 3g

i want to start fresh with it

imo it'll make a lot of things easier with roms and stuff
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jriv:
go to www.theunlockr.com they got vids and guids for it
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ronni.rasmussen:
Hmmm, should be a lot easier for you to get started with roms and stuff now that it is rooted.

But it sounds like you want to go through the steps by yourself to understand how things work?

Anyway, there is many different ways to root a magic all depends on HBOOT.

You should be happy you don't have to go through this, some mobiles still not root-able.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cten1:
ya though it will make everything easier i just feel i need to do it by myself in order to understand it more

thanks ronni.rasmussen
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] crzygrmn:
IF YOUR PHONE IS ROOTED, DONT DO it UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING!!!! IF it is rooted thats easier for custom rom, unrooted means only provider Roms!

well if you wanna UNROOT your phone, try using the stock RUU, that should do the trick, unless your having a rogers, then PLEASE LEAVE IT ALONE!!:D

Because the new update is a perfect one, that means you cant root it that easy!!
[Desire General] ErezS:
Hello,

Loving my desire but this problem is really annoying,

Every time I take the phone out of my pocket it's slide the phone upwards so the call is being dismissed.

Any chance I can change that?

I'm running a rooted phone.

Thanks.
[Desire General] chefk0k:
I agree on this, It's quite annoying.

I've seen some apps that change the lockscreen, but most of them consume memory and/or a lot of battery power. A free app would be preferred.
[Desire General] haggisuk99:
why isnt your screen off? when you go to put the desire in your pocket press the power button on the device quickly and it will turn your screen off and also lock it, there is no need to have the screen on whilst in your pocket is there? this is also power saving on your phone, hitting the power button again will then switch it to the lock screen once you have taken it out of your pocket.
[Desire General] Aitese:
This is when a call comes in. When a call comes on the phone wakes from sleep mode.
[HD2 General] dddnnnggg:
Hi,

1. Well, the title is quite clear, have you noticed dust or any other particles collected under the glass on the display of yor HD2 screens?

2. I have seen quite a few videos on Youtube showing the how scratch resistant the HD2 screen is, well i just want to know, is that really so. Could i use the HD2 without screen protector?

Thanks
[HD2 General] Sheikmans:
1. I don't have dust particles, I use my device 16 hours per day

2. I don't use a screen protector and still have no scratches. The screen is really scratch resistent in my opinion.
[HD2 General] DJGurth:
screen is veeerrry good

the screen is very very good, i have dropped it on its face loads and no scratches...

But i did drop it once and a tiny chip in the glass appeared as in missing haha..

i really should stop dropping my phone grrrrrr

[HTC Excalibur] biggiebola:
I have an HTC S621 and have obtained the SIM Unlock code. The only problem is that I can't get my hands on a different carrier's SIM to get a chance to enter the code.

Is there any other way to enter the unlock code?

The phone is also app locked, but I can't get the 'SDA_ApplicationUnlock' to work. I keep getting a message saying 'Phone is not unlockable'. I read somewhere else that I will have to do a SIM unlock before I can get the CID unlock to work.

So, any help entering that code without a different SIM would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] ssj4sunny:
Hi there!

I have s2u2 installed and I use it as my primary lock. But sometimes when I use the lock function it locks it twice, so it locks with the windows mobile default lock AND s2u2 lock. I want to get rid of the windows mobile default slide lock, is there any way i can do this?

Thank you very much.
[General Questions and Answers] cujoblue:
basically just go to the s2u2 settings under advanced and you will c an option to replace your WM system lock... slide the option to on and it should solve that issue
[General Questions and Answers] pj1115:
If that answer doesn't work for you, try installing Diamond Config (search for it) and disable the 'auto lock' feature.

Hi

Got myself a HTC HD2 phone can all you good people recommend what good apps to use along with the best games out at the moment :D

A bit of a dummy when it comes to phones so take it easy on me :)

Thanks all.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gjizaqin:
I guess you found this forum by searching on net. So you could use same method on the forums too. Just a simple search would give you excellent results.

http://www.google.com/cse?cx=partner-pub-2900107662879704:fs7umqefhnf&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=apps+for+hd2

Don't take it personally.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] livebaituk:
Was recommended this forum from a friend off BBS air guns he said it was a great forum where the people are very helpful ;) and this is the place to fined all I need for my phone.

I have had a look through but it all seems gobblygook to me I just know I will end up doing something to my phone of shouldn't :eek:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] k8sh:
Get registered at freeware pocket pc then download oMarket on your phone. It is a free app marketplace similar to WM marketplace. Also, go to hd2apps blog. Tons of apps and games (all free), best site imo. If you like to know people's recommended apps, go to TMobile HD2 forum, there are several threads there dedicated for that, just do a search. That is where newbies should go first before dabbling into XDA as in my opinion this forum is more for relatively advanced users...for tweaking and customization, a little less on apps and games.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] livebaituk:
Cheers for that :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wolfee:
Welcome to the HD2 world here on XDA.

I totally understand how everything can be/is confusing at first. Having the phone for a day or so and not knowing what is out there to do even a general search. Reading the posts here will give you a general knowledge of the cab files that will enhance and customize your new phone to your liking. It really isnt that hard once you start playing around a bit.

Might I suggest bookmarking this forum, and keeping an eye on it. Lots of stuff here to do to your phone. Also read though all the posts in the "post your leo today screens" thread. tons of stuff there, and everyone shares what they have.

Please do remember the search feature is your friend. New threads with the same old questions that have been posted and answered 50 times will most likely only get you a few pointed responses.

Hope you enjoy your new HD2 phone and your time here.

Bet he's got some really silly username trying to make himself sound like some crack shot hero too hasn't he? Sad. Very sad. :rolleyes::D;)

Don't worry mate, they're not all that unfriendly on here, as the other two posters have proved.

This place can be a bit daunting, just read lots for a few days and it'll start becoming clear, drop me an email or PM on here if you get stuck.

What sort of stuff are you looking for?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] livebaituk:
Finding my way round got some top apps already my phone is starting to become mine now :D

Have seen some pics on here where the phone has a smart looking top bar where the start and signal strength is anyone know a link to where I can find one. Have look for one but don't know what it's called :o

Cheers sniper-wolf for the heads up, name can't be as bad as mine :eek:

try .... www.fpsece.net

get the supporter version and register on the forum to get the right set-up files for the HD2.

It's a playstation one emulator and its really good.

There's loads of help videos on the forum to help you get it started and it's well worth the effort!

I'd also recommend getting the paid version of myPlayer... there's more uk digital live channels that work really well.

Hey livebaituk,

Have you formatted the card before using it? Try that first....

Otherwise, did you buy it from eBay?? I had the same problem with the one I got from there, did a quick test on it and it turned out to be fake!

Use the program below to test the memory card and see if that's the problem....

(you will need to have a microSD convertor to use direct with your computer, either to usb or to SD if you have a SD card reader).

That's all I can think of, hope that helps,

Yes got it off ebay :mad: formatted before I used it and still didn't work. going to format it and try that program you sent.

[Desire General] seven1317:
I've recently bought a Parrot MKi9000 bluetooth system and installed it in my car. The system works flawlessly with my old Nokia 6110 Navigator and the audio streaming quality is fantastic....

Not so on the Desire. The quality is quite frankly appalling, like listening to a 56kbps MP3. It also seems to have intermittent bluetooth issues, such as not being able to send files via bluetooth (at all) and then locking the blutooth on and requiring a reboot to turn it off.

Anyone experiencing this stuff, or is it just my dud? I REALLY hope the streaming quality issue isn't an Android thing, I just spent $180 on this bluetooth system!:(
[Desire General] kbetcher:
I just bought a JVC bluetooth stereo to use with my phone... and it works GREAT! I haven't had any issues with the bluetooth connection, and it shuts off as soon as I flip the toggle switch on my home screen.

As far as sound quality goes... it sounds like I have a CD playing when I'm playing mp3 files. I also use A Online Radio streaming to my stereo, and I only use stations that stream at least 128 kbps, and that sounds pretty darn good as well. Not as good as mp3 files, but pretty darn good.

Keith
[Desire General] seven1317:
Thanks Keith.

I've contacted HTC- They've said they're working on it....so I'm not sure if that means it's a Carrier specific thing (my carrier has a custom ROM) or if they're just not sure if it's an individual handset thing and they want to make sure.

It seems very unstable with Bluetooth in general though, so I hope I have a dud, otherwise that's disappointing!

Hey guys sorry to be a total noob but we all have to start somewhere. I have preordered the evo from RS and this will be my first smart phone. I really have no exp with aps or what these phones can do.

I guess what I am wondering is what is rooting and why is it useful.

Thanks again in advance. I apologize for my ignorance on this topic.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] travisr528:
Rooting is basically hacking your phone.

It is useful to get super admin permission. Allow's you to customize your phone more and remove carrier app that you may not want. There is alot more stuff but I am new myself to Android.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
Basically it's useful for removing crapware. It's kind of like when you buy a Dell computer and it comes with useless programs that may be really good but you find no use for. You can also edit things such as wallpapers and enable hidden menu options for features.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohwut:
Rooting gives you literally UNLIMITED access to the software operating system on the computer.

When compared to a Windows computer think of your default phone as a Guest account. You can generally use everything but anything important can't be deleted or modified, which also prevents you from pretty much modifying anything at all.

Once you gain Root you're on the Administrators account, you can edit anything you want, move, delete, & in general do whatever you'd like with the device. Sometimes this can introduce risk to unexperienced users -- Think about what would happen if you deleted your entire sys32 folder on Windows...you'd break something.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chazglenn3:
That is the best explaination of rooting that I have read...thank you! Very simple to understand when put into the Guest/Admin scenario.

To disable the custom phone skin, use a Registry editor and edit the following:

HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 0 (DWORD decimal)

You can restore the custom phone skin by changing it back to:

HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 1 (DWORD decimal)
