[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Lefty2802:
Before you read, if you can't help, don't post criticizing.

I am fairly new at all of this and understand that this is purely my fault and I did something wrong. Before I call my phone a brick (which, by definition it is not) I thought I would see if anyone had any ideas on how to fix it.

I tried preparing my system to be able to use SuperEclair. I flashed my Radio to 6.35.10.18 and my SPL to 1.76.2007. I then put Amon_RA's recovery (1.6.2) for the 32A board. I boot up my phone and try to put it into Recovery Mode, doesn't work.

I then try to start anew, and reload the sappimg.zip using my gold card. It hangs on Radio2.

I then go to fastboot mode and try to redo the radio there, along with re-flashing the SPL and recovery. The radio goes through the whole process, but at the end of it, it hangs as the red bar reaches the top.

Basically I am stuck on Radio 6.35.10.18 and I cannot access recovery.

My phone is a Magic1.2/MyTouch3G w/ 3.5mm jack.

Basically:

Sapphire Unknown 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2010

CPLD-13

RADIO-6.35.10.18

I can access fastboot (Power+Back) and Hboot (Power+Volume down) modes. I cannot access recovery (Power+Home). It hangs on the first splashscreen that says "HTC Magic".

I have read things about using Nandroid, but I have no experience with this. If you have an answer, but no time, just reference it and I can do my own research. Any help is appreciated.

Hello. There is a new AmonRA recovery. 1.7.0. I think what you did was make a mistake at what recovery you installed on there. Do you have a T-Mobile branded MyTouch3G?

I have one of those with a 32A boards. However mine says "G".

What AmonRA Recovery did you use? (G or H)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Lefty2802:
T-Mobile branded MyTouch.

I used the H version of the recovery.

Let me try using the H version of 1.7.0.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zelda26:
I have a T-Mobile MT3G. Mine is a "G" try using that one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] shadowburt:
Did G work?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Lefty2802:
Everything is fixed. I suppose I was using both the wrong release and/or the wrong version.

Thank you very much.

A mod can now close this thread.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jonduernck:
I've been using the Cookie home tab lockscreen for quite some time (using HD2 with the Energy ROM), but found that it interfered with the Manila music player (made my device crash), so now I'm using the standard Wm 6.5 lockscreen, which I found is decent too.

However, I noticed that the touchscreen isn't locked, so touching the screen makes the device stay on. I also had my settings for the backlight of my device to never go off, which made the screen stay on, even when the lockscreen was active.

Is there a way to set the delay for the screen/device to go off when using the standard wm6.5 lockscreen, independently of the backlight settings?

Can the touchscreen also be locked?

I've noticed that battery drain increased significantly since using the standard lock, probably because of this touchscreen problem making the device go on continuouslyy in my pocket (accidently pressing a button when it's in my pocket and then keeping it on because of the touchscreen)

BTW: S2U is a good option indeed, but I like the standard lockscreen

I was just wondering if there is a notepad app similar to notepad++(windows version). Basically, I need an app in which I could write code and it will apply certain formatting, for example color reserved words blue, highlight opening, closing bracket, etc.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryl3y:
why does it suck? surely its no real difference? both are stored on the sd card and im not sure I am right but you dont need the ext partition now?

am i missing something?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gIMpSTa:
As devs update their apps to take advantage of and work with the new features I think the offical way will be fine.

Only real drawback I can see right now tho as compared to the apps2sd we are used to is the fact the apps are now on the FAT32 partition. This means anything you have moved to SD will not be available while your phone is mounted to PC via USB cable. That's the biggest advantage to the "older method" with it's EXT partition, so you could mount your phone to pc and still use the apps that are on your sd card. This simply will not be possible with the official method.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0ol:
this

AND for me the biggest advantage of app2sd was the ability to do a painless wipe (to change different roms for ex.). Im not sure it will work same way with fat.

If I copy the system image from rom.zip 1.56 to rom.zip 2.27 does that delete the digital signature? I tried it with a radio img. I used Damages radio update and opened the archive and switched the radioimg and then flashed it. It worked will this work on the rom.zip?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abcdfv:
Yeah, it deletes the signature. Regaw and I tried it with the system.img from the testkeys release trying to acheive root.

[General Questions and Answers] JonnyX93:
hi

i tried some registry tweaks on my nike, because no alternative keybord worked. But after a soft reset my phone allways stops booting while shwing the startscrenn with Rominformation.

Can a edit the registry or do i have to make a hardreset. if i have to do a hardreset: Is it possible to restore the Data after a hardrestet (e.g. the contactlist or the sms)

thx

JonnyX
[General Questions and Answers] Farmer Ted:
just do the hard reset and then do a full restore w/ Sprite or SPB or whatever you backed the device up with before you started messing with the registry.
[General Questions and Answers] marduk79:
definitely a better idea to back up your stuff first before beginning to mess with anything. try the my phone back up or search for a backup application before you do a hard reset next time.
[General Questions and Answers] mikeraul:

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] prupert:
I REALLY like Launcher Pro (don't care about the extra home screens or the preview function, but I love the four shortcuts at the bottom to phone, contacts, messaging and browser - why Android just leaves that space empty and unfillable I shall never know, total waste of screen space). I know I can set is as my default Home app - but then the stock Home app is still there and no doubt resident in memory and using some of that memory up. Is there anyway of actually replacing the stock Home app with Launcher Pro so the stock Home app has been deleted?

To be clear, I am not talking about going into Application Settings and clicking Reset Defaults on the stock Home app, so Launcher Pro always launches, I am talking about actually removing the stock Home app altogether and replacing it with Launcher Pro....obviously I am already rooted and have ADB access.

Is this only possible if someone cooks up a ROM with the stock Home app replaced?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ddotpatel:
I think alot of things get messed up if you just remove the default launcher from a SenseUI ROM.

Maybe use it on a vanilla ROM instead pal?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] prupert:
oopsie, I should have mentioned, I am already using a vanilla 2.1 ROM (VanillaDroid) it is extra specially AWESOME by the way (comes with overclocking so it just screams along (as does the CPU no doubt!!)).

So, I am assuming it would be less trouble if I did try to remove stock home, since it is vanilla.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ddotpatel:
Yeh I assume it would be a much simpler process if your using a Vanilla ROM.

But you know,... Assumption is the mother of all f~#k ups.

Definitely time for advice from a developer,... Sorry pal.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] prupert:
No probs, just wondered if it was a common practice - clearly not - I'll prolly just leave it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] smiskkissen:
I can't imagine that you will free up very much space by removing it. sounds like alot of hassle for little award.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] prupert:
I should have been clearer. By space, I meant resident memory - i.e. I am assuming the stock Home app runs in the background and Launcher Pro runs alongside it. I am imagining Android's memory management would never kill the stock Home app, so it ends up sucking memory away from other apps....
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jarski12345:
I'm not a dev but i've removed Home without any problems.

Do a nandroid backup first!

Install Launcher Pro. Then

adb remount
adb shell
rm /system/app/Launcher.*
reboot
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] prupert:
Do you notice more memory (as in available memory for running apps - not storage) after doing this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jarski12345:
I don't monitor memory usage. But I tend to remove ALL apps I don't use (and can be removed without problems). The lighter the better for me. Give it a shot;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] DS36:
i did this without any issue i removed launcher.apk and launcher.odex

renamed the new launcher to Launcher.apk

pushed to /system/app (not /data/app)

remove any old launcher files from /data/app/

install new launcher.apk in /system/app

worked out great not a single issue so far

can switch to either launcher all on the fly and long as you leave default unchecked

pm me i will try my best to help
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] cooldudeansari:
hi,thanx for the steps..

i found launcher.apk but i cudnt find launcher.oedx,

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] harut56:
Its easy to remove HTC Sense,but notice withouti Rosie launcher you wont be able to use stock sense apps,such as dialer or messagigng
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Lirasina:
Rosie isnt tied into the phone.apk and the mms.apk.. So if you remove it and you set in LP that they both go to those apps then it should work just fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] justephemeral:
i think use titanium back up to delete stock home, before delete please install launcher pro
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] flame360:
I do this all the time, because everytime i update from a nightlie the build reinstalls the launcher. After several times of doing it i've found root explorer to be the easieast way to go :

1 Go to /system/app and delete the laucher

2 go to /data/app long press the launcher you wish to copy select move then go to /system/app and paste it's as simple as that (you can even bookmark the folders for future use let's say you wanna replace the music app the sms app etc etc )

You may also use titanium to do it or mannualy trough adb.

Performance wise i use adw ex and i notice better screen response faster rendering and less laggy it is worth doing it

If you wanna try increase performance you may want to try this cmd through terminal cmd

su

echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop

reboot

It locks homescreen in memory

Hi,

I've had my Hero on Orange UK now for about 1 month.. I have been using various compass apps and even the spirit level apps.

All was fine until last week when I tried to use the compass and it failed to work/move..

I tried the spirit level apps and they have stopped working...

Is there a way to test the compass and G sensor to make sure what is happening ?

I did wonder if the driver may have been corrupted while I was trying the various apps. I have a lot of apps now on the phone, including paid for sat nav etc. It's my work phone and don't really want to send it back to Orange (or HTC) unless it is the last resort as it is needed daily..

Is there a soft reset that will reload the drivers ?

Any help would be appreciated
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
Have you tried resetting your gsensor calibration in Settings --> Sound and Display?

I didn't know we had a compass?... where?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] phil-w:
I did have difficulty finding the calibration setting, seems a strange place to put it !

Anyway, I've now run the cal for the G sensor and it goes through the motions etc and says calibrated.

I guess if it physically didn't work it would throw up a failed to calibrate type error messge.

I just down loaded a simple spirit level prog (after taking all my similar progs off incase one of those was causing problem).

If I use the calibration setting on that it doesn't even move, that is what is making me feel more inclined (Could be a joke there !) to think that it is the drivers that are faulty and HTC's G sensor cal works at a lower level....

ddotpatel: The compass facility is (was !) very good. Some of the apps are better than others and are faster to respond. Just type in compass in market place, loads of free ones to try..

I really could do with finding a full original driver pack to re install. That may cure my problem...

Failing that, is there a proper SOFT RESET for the Hero, not just power off or take battery out. Something that forces it to reload drivers etc...

Thanks again for taking the time out to reply..

Phil-w
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
Ok,.... Next thing to do is to uninstall all compas applications,... Then reboot,... then calibrate gsensor again,... then reboot,... install compas app, try again.

If that still fails,... I'd run an RUU to restore back to factory set.

RUUs can be found in the sticky at the top of the development section,...

[ROM] Official HTC Hero RUU ROM + Radio Links
[Hero, G2 Touch General] phil-w:
Well that did the trick,

4 re cals and re boots then downloaded new compass app, works a treat now.

I will have to keep checking if all is well. Try the same trick again if not....

Thanks

Phil

p.s it did come up this time with aborted calibration a couple of times but now seems stable.

[Desire General] pampyre:
Can you really brick when just flashing a generic ROM? I thought it was just when rooting.

I did actually find my battery life seems to have improved since flashing generic from Orange, but really that could be cos the battery has had a few good charges now and is reaching max capacity, or just cos I spend less time on the phone than I did in the first couple of days.

[P3600 ROM Development] SuperSport:
As far as I am aware, it's not yet possible. I've tried converting the Tilt version to work, but no luck so far. I've since given up on it, and the others that were working on it had no luck either. It was an issue of getting the kernel to work, and then the drivers had not been developed yet.

For what it's worth: It is quite fun to run on the Tilt, but not good for everyday use yet. It is still a bit glitchy and slow. Again, fun to get it going and use!

Pretty cool apps in the app store, etc... I especially like using Google Goggles and being able to take a photo of just about anything and telling it to search and voilà!.. It scans the image, jumps to Google and tells you what you took a photo of. If it was a product, it will tell you where you can buy it and it's ingredients, if it was a car, it will tell you what type of car, etc... Nice tool/toy. I shot a Twix candy bar, and it came back with it's ingredients, nutritional information, company information, where I could buy it, etc. Technology is advancing faster than I can keep up. I LOVE it!

If you find a way to get it working, please report back. I would like to try it on the P3600 also if it worked. But, for the record, I am sticking with WM for the time being... ;)

Yes, I'm not too excited about it yet. We will see what the final result will be. It does appear to be quite Apple'ish at the moment. Hopefully, they will shift gears away from that before the final release. Only time will tell. ;)
