[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoyalServant:
I just don't get it.

It plays videos but I cannot get it to interact period.

Most videos I have encountered on the internet will pause when clicked.

I cant' 'tap' on the video to pause it and I cannot interact with the seek or buttons on the player either.

Simply put, the 'container' with the flash player in it never takes the focus.

I can tap the screen twice to get the phone to center on it, but that's it.

What am I doing wrong here?

Is it meant to be non-interactive on phones?
[HD2 General] pandaxownage:
windows 6.5, 6.5.x

when you flash a rom does it matter for these?

what if you want 6.5.x but currently have 6.5?

how does that work?

which rom do you like for the t-mous hd2 and why?

which rom has the least bugs, good battery life, and fast?
[HD2 General] wingtytn:
6.5 is what u hav now, 6.5.x only differs from the start menu going from the top of the screen to the bottom of it alsowen dealin with the newer roms 6.5.x usaly has the most updated software.... now always keep in mind to research the info before making a new thread, the reason for this is because when u go into a cooked rom thread all the info u need and pictures of the rom is in the thread... and please read before u do anything to your device
[HD2 General] pandaxownage:
but i was wondering, if you flash a 6.5.x rom onto your 6.5 after you hspl will it still work or will it brick?? im not really sure about the whole flashing thing yet it still confuses me
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
when you flash, your current rom is completely wiped so it doesn't matter what version it is.
[HD2 General] pandaxownage:
so to my understanding on flashing, you first hspl your phone then download your rom and radio first you flash radio then rom?

if you downgrade from 2.13 to 2.10.0 to hspl your phone, and you flash via micro sd, there isnt a possible way to brick your phone right? :/
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
doesnt really matter what order you flash them because you have a tmous, so the rom will work with any tmous radio, including the one already on your phone, and if there isnt a tmous radio on your phone then its already bricked :)

You probably learned that re: the normal leo, where the rom doesnt boot until the radio is flashed, but doesnt affect tmous.

Heh, theres always a chance, just like theres a chance you will fall over in the bathroom and break your neck whilst brushing your teeth, , , , , , hehe.

Make sure you have plenty of charge in your battery, and dont mess with it whilst its flashing, and it should be fine.
[HD2 General] pandaxownage:
so whe i downgrade back to 2.10, you just install the rom right? and if your radio is 2.10 its fine right?
[HD2 General] marduk79:
your radio should work fine with most of the roms that you install. If a particular rom requires a specific radio version 1 of 2 things will happen. 1) The chef will include it in the rom or 2) the chef will state the radio version needed as a recomendation. Sometimes a specific radio version will work better where as a different radio version may affect reception, battery life among other things. You can't however get whatever radio version you feel like because some radios are location specific (no need for a portuguese radio when you live in Chicago) Go to the XDA-Wiki and look for radios. They have a table explaining each radio version, it's carrier and it's location. Best of luck on journey through flashing. It is an exciting one.
[HD2 General] pandaxownage:
thanks okay so im planning on flashing tonight and i can just load the 2.10.0 rom onto my phone and it'll just downgrade right because my radio is compatible? then after that i hspl it and flash a new rom? if im correct this will happen according to plan? but i wont flash until i get this answered :p
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
go for it, you are flashing a tmous rom onto a tmous phone with a tmous radio 1 - included in the rom and 2 - already on the phone. It will alllll be fine.
[HD2 General] marduk79:
Just wondering, what rom are you flashing? I understand your anxiety about flashing. Took me couple of months to get the courage to do so. I was afraid to brick my precious TP2.

[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Hi folks.....:D,

Anyhow, I have several questions for y'all about the phone. I was wondering, can anything be done about the pink hue in camera shots? I've noticed that in some pictures, it's not so evident, but in others, it's clear as day. Is there a trick to this? I know that changing phones don't really work as it seems to be something to do with the tech of the camera itself + the housing of the lens or something.

Also, since this is my first time using WM 6.5, is it normal for the Start menu, to segment in terms of scrolling? Like, instead of a smooth drop all the way to the bottom, it goes in "pages" almost, if this makes any sense. Also, is there a trick to using capacitive screens? Whenever I try to use my fingertip to scroll, sometimes it registers, sometimes it half-registers. Is angle an issue here? Do you get better with this over time?

I'm running stock ROM right now, with a yellow-reset button if that matters, with 2.13. Having said that, what are some of the common things I can check for in terms of manufacturer's defects, etc? I want to try avoiding flashing until I've checked for these common issues first to save me the hassle of flashing back again, etc.

Thanks everyone! But boy...the phone is snappy. :D
[HD2 General] kennyb123:
I can't answer your question about the pink hue. I haven't noticed it in my pictures, yet.

Yes, the page scrolling in the start menu screen is by design. It's so you don't go way farther down than you wanted to. I think it's retarded.

The touch issues you are describing could be for two different reasons.

1st, I hope you aren't using your fingernail? A capacitive screen requires skin contact.

2nd, the 2.13 ROM has serious touch sensitivity issues. There is a sticky in the "T-Mobile USA HD2 General" forum up top that gives you a .cab to install that fixes the registry for much more responsive touch scrolling.

Since you posted this in that same forum, I'm sure you will see it up there!
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Thanks for the reply. I actually tried the cab above by zim or something, and it made my touch scrolling so much worse in SPB Mobile Shell. So I don't know what's going on.

Anyhow, I spoke with a T-Mobile rep, and we went through the usual rigmarole, and he told me since I can't get rid of the pink hue, I should just go back and get an exchange. Anyone think I should do this? Or are all units likely to have this problem? How many HD2 users here do not have this problem for the T-Mobile HD2 version?
[HD2 General] Camusa:
A good number of the units have the "pink hue" problem. You can see several videos people have made on YouTube about this.

I have a bit of it as well.

My contention...live with it because it seems as though you have about a 50/50 chance of getting another unit with the same problem.
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Is it normal to see the pink hue even through the screen though? Like, you start up the camera, even just at looking at the screen, I can see the pinkness in the center already. Is this normal?

That's my worry too. Everything else with the phone works so far. No dead pixels, no manufacturer's defects in the physical case....my worry is that by exchanging, I'm increasing the risk of obtaining one of these other problems. :(

Edit: Also, I have to mention that the pink hue is without flash.
[HD2 General] toreone:
Mine...on occasion it does have the pink tint but when I take the picture it is not there. People said to try to take a picture of a blank piece of white paper and see what it looks like. I tried with my phone and it looked white and my friend tried it with his iphone 3gs and it was fine as well. I read somewhere about it being an issue with a number of cameras not only the HD2. That being said a lot of people have including myself have taken really good pictures without a hint of pink?!?!
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Flash, no flash?

[HD2 General] samsamuel:
don't use your finger tip, use the pad. the conductance of the tip is lower than the pad. my left index finger simply won't work at all!
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Yeah, I figured as much now. I realize when I use the pad of my thumb and scroll, it's so orgasmic and makes me jizz in my pants. :D And to see the scrolling without the icons being rendered as you go is.....just ....how it was supposed to be. :D

Funny enough though, I can't seem to hit the corners as easily. This is apparently evident when for example, you're in the Phone settings, and you have the two arrow keys on the bottom right. It's almost impossible for me to use my right thumb without hitting 10 times while my left-thumb needs about 2 ~ 3 tries. The screen seems to register the touch at the center of my thumb-pad, so to speak. Is this normal? Or does it just register the area of the thumb that gives off the most "signal", so to speak?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
The pink spot was addressed by an HTC-issued patch for the euro Leo, which is still available on the HTC support/updates site for that model. But, the patch states that it's for builds prior to the ones used in the Tmo models, so I don't know that it will make a difference, but you're welcome to try it. I think the same tweak is available in all the HD2 tweaks listed in the sticky on the main page...in the list of all the "touch-x" cabs smaberg posted, there's one there for the "camera fix", I believe that's the same thing.

I haven't noticed the pink spot on my HD2 at all, and I did a test or two with a white paper...but I honestly don't remember what lighting I used. If I were you, I'd just test it several ways (indoors/outdoors/flash/no flash) and compare the results.
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
It's much more prevalent in indoor shots without flash. For outdoor shots, it's hard to notice it, but the farther you go away from the picture, the more noticeable the pink blur is. The radius of the pinkness get larger as the darker the ambient surround gets, at least for me.

Im still debating whether it is worth the hassle to argue for a brand new one, knowing that the reps might be reluctant to shell out a brand new HD2 over what they'd probably deem as a "minor" discoloration or something.
[HD2 General] wingtytn:
i noticed the pink hue on my hd it started after i had the screen replaced and then added copilot i beleive its from where the video driver has an issuse and it maybe to where u hav to get the device replaced dude if u hav a custom rom try task 29 and then add a new different rom so that the rom is fresh on the device now so far on my hd2 i see no pink hue but i hav one of the first genration of tmous-hd2 i ordered it the first day,,, hope info helped
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Hmm, but I've read online it's more to do with the low-quality of the camera parts and nothing to do with software really. Seems like a hit or miss really. Still fidgeting at this point whether to get it replaced or not since everything else works perfectly.

Anyhow, running SPB Mobile Shell on this monster results in 0 lags/freezes. ;)
