An update for all who have been following this topic and posting replies trying to help:

I took the phone to the shop it was bought from and had it sent in for repairs. The entire mainboard was replaced and the repairs were covered by the warranty :cool:

Gave the phone to the mrs now since I got a Desire in the mean time, and her W995 was due to be sent in for repairs to the system conector.

Leaves me wondering whether the phone died by my hands or if it did so by itself due to a hardware fault though :confused:

If anybody feels brave have a go and attempt to re-create my problem and see if it can be solved ;)

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] searoso:
Again, is it bricked? ☺

Hello!

I have the same question as the topic starter had.

I bought my phone flashed with a Hero ROM because I wanted SenseUI, as HTC released Magic's ROMs with Sense I was trying to install it, but it was totaly denying any attempt to connect it to HTC Sync (RUU didn't see it too). Accidentally I saw the "home + power" (or vol. down + power) buttons trick and thought "factory reset" will send it to the state it initially was, i.e. with the Magic ROM it has after it producing. Obviously it was a bad move, so now system cycles badly on booting and I can't use fastboot because USB debugging was off. Can I flash it with some ROM or is it totally bricked?

I tried flashing some CM stables, but it denies it on verification, saying they "unsigned" ☹. I hoped I can store update.zip on SD, then wipe device and apply update.zip, but it won't work so simple. Could you give me some advice, please?

Fastboot screen says this.

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 General] tiwas:
Anyone got any good ideas on which to use? I'd like 6.5.5, but I'm not sure if I want to upgrade my radio...

Cheers!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakeesh_j:
Does anybody know why my hero might be a bit slow at dialing? When I touch a number in my contacts, it takes up to 30 seconds before it starts connecting the call. Sometimes its instant, sometimes its a long time. If I press it twice, it'll try to three way call the person later.

What causes this, and how do I fix it?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gapoochi:
I have this problem too as does my hubby's phone.

We have tried damagecontrol and fresh roms and it happens on both of them.

We also get issues with the internet and gps not working on and off so we have to reboot. Not sure at all if this is any way related to the phone calls being so slow to take.

would LOVE an answer to how to fix this!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
a dialer without haptic feedback usually solves this, here's one for damage/fresh/sprint based roms. Other wise, try zen's slide rom, dialer works GREAT, fastest yet for me even with haptic on!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakeesh_j:
I get the same problem as well. Usually its fixed by turning wifi on then off, or turning gps off then on respectively.

I get this problem without even using the dialer though. E.g. going into people, touching a contact, then touching the phone number to call it. The phone just does nothing for a little bit then suddenly it initiates the call. Would changing the dialer still fix this problem?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
not entirely sure... possibly, I think it still has to load the dialer app when you do that. Best I could say is just try it. If it doesn't, and you want the old dialer, just pull it from the original zip you flashed and adb push to system/app to replace the one I posted. But that dialer works much better, in my opinion
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrackedTech:
Mine does this too and has on the stock ROM as well as every version of damagecontrol since 2.06. Sometimes it will dial right away and other times it will wait 10-20 seconds, then turn the screen off and immdiately back on and then dial and other times it just waits however long it wants to start dialing.

I know when I was still on stock and not rooted it would sometimes go into a state where it wouldn't respond to any commands that would make it dial but every other function seemed to be fine. I don't believe that's happened since I rooted and ROM'd it though.

I've used the stock dialer and well as SuperDial and Dialer One and all have had the problem. I've had this problem with haptic turned off/removed and still on. Sometimes waiting a few seconds after unlocking will help but not always.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
So far for me, 100% fix has been the slide rom or darch droid (which finally booted for me today!). Both those, not one issue.

I keep getting that "could not get pipe properties" error message. adb devices works fine but no luck with fastboot. I've successfully used fastboot many time pre froyo.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
Just used it last night with no issues, on Froyo.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
fastboot commands only work in the bootloader. if you are getting adb to work, and not fastboot, that is normal, because only one of them will work at a time.

do a

adb reboot bootloader

then, in bootloader

fastboot devices
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] technogecko6:
EDIT: Woops posted too fast without full title. Should be like, Device not reading SD card in various ways. Haha... man Im tired >.>

Hi guys,

So it seems I managed to screw something up regarding my SD card while I was messing around with my devices (MT3G 1.2). I figured maybe you can direct me to some things I haven't tried yet.

Here is all the available info:

When trying to access SD card in RA Recovery I get:

E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)

E: Can't mount SDCARD:

When booted into android, I constantly have "SD Card Removed" in my notifications and not amount of rebooting or reseating the sd card seems to change that.

If I slap the SD card in another device and mount the card on windows, it shows up seemingly alright there. I also tried simply formatting it fresh to FAT32 there and putting it back into my MT3G, but it didn't seem to make a difference.

After trying to format the card, I seem to get these files I haven't heard of before showing up on the card:

qxdm_20100531_060541_2.dm

qxdm_20100531_062913_1.dm

etc, etc... about 10 of them now.

I'm hoping that this is something I can reverse, and not some sort of really bad hardware or driver issue. Any hints or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Kemekill Products:
That's very odd. qXDm is a program used with CMDA phones to mod ESN's and program them.. Flip phones and such.. not meant for smart phones since we'd have no use for a tool of that nature.

If you're running RA 1.7 then I believe accessing the SD card is out of question anyhow because something is broken with that.. not sure what though but I can't use mine either.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
If you can boot into android, try this:

open the dialer and dial

*#*#4636#*#*

DON'T press call, just wait a sec. - a menu should appear. Choose the first item (phone information, or similar), and scroll down - there should be a button there with something about qxdm on it. Possibly 'disable qxdm'. Try selecting that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] technogecko6:
Tried that, but it had "Enable QDSM SD Log", not disable... tried it regardless but made no real change anyway. :/
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] KingXerxes:
Did you ever find a solution to this issue? I have the same problem - it occured durring a SAPPIMG.ZIP flashing of my phone - it seems that for some reason QXDM was turned on during this proccess.

Typically, the following fastboot command would turn QXDM SD logging off, but it does not work for me (I believe it may only be available in ENG SPLs).

Hey all. So i came across an HD2 today. I already have a rooted nexus one with a custom rom. Ive never really used an HTC HD2... What do you guys recommend? I know how to flash the nexus and customize it and all the at... how much different is it to do the HD2??? Whats the best rom? Any tips or tricks?
[HD2 General] karaern:
try miri+anastasia ROM, is really cool looking. Meanwhile what makes your way to choose HD2 with WM OS? these days i am looking to crush it or trow it :)
[HD2 General] jthornton71707:
Honestaly i got it for $340 off craigslist brand new... and i just figured id buy it keep the 16gb memory card and sell it for what i got it for and break even :). I love my nexus one but damn its ugly.... The HD2 at least has some sex appeal so thats why im trying to figure out what mybest options are while i have this thing...
[HD2 General] karaern:
my opinion is go for nexus! hd2 is sexy for 1-2 weeks then u will meet WM problems and then probably will trow it away...hehe
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobecamp2009:
okay so when my n1 is in sleep, it takes like 3 tries to wake it up. The first time I press the unlock button the unlock screen comes and then goes back to sleep instantly. The second time the lights for the back menu home and search light up and that's it. the third time it works. I'm on froyo. anyone else with this problem?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorin.bute:
I have a similar issue.

Sometimes just the capacitive buttons light up and not the screen. I have to make 2 or 3 tries to get it to turn on. Its rare, but its there. It only happened on 2.2.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palitu:
ok good, me too!

was just looking for this topic.

mine doesnt always turn anything on at all. sometimes the light go on, others nothing. Also trying to turn off the phone is hard as it sleeps straight away with out opening up the power menu.

I have a stock N1, which recently updated to Froyo, with the same problem.

any ideas would be great!

cheers,
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Also happens on CM 5.0.7.1.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palitu:
i think it may be a hardware button issue.

I have tried turning mine off (had to pull the battery out) and then to turn it on.

It should turn on readily as it has nothing to do with the OS at that point.

any ideas?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
No HW button issue described. HW button works - if it didn't, lights wouldn't go on. It's a wrong reaction on the button, at least that's what OP describes (and me too).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtx101:
Your N1's power button is dying, it's a known HARDWARE issue. I experienced all of that what you may think a software bug, nut dear friends, prepare to meet HTC or Google for warranty. My N1's power button is dead, I couldn't swap for a new one because I bought it in my country where no official distributor for N1 yet. Sad!

ps: you may try to search for "N1 power button" and see there are more and more reports about this problem.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I've read more than one or two threads on power button issues, and I know what I'm talking about. My power button DOES power up the phone when the battery is taken off the first shot, it DOES wake the phone from standby, it DOES register long presses - there was even one time when a second press was long, and suddenly the screen woke up with power menu, while the first press left it dark with touch button light going on.

Doesn't look even a bit like HW to me. HW would leave the phone dead, non-responsive to touches, or create a loose touch which would translate into several touches - none of those would EVER turn into a phone being on with screen off, and suddenly snapping back to screen on when the SCREEN is touched several times.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
Could be your cpu was too busy to accept any inputs.

I have a thread about it here:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtx101:
:) Take your time! As for me, I'm using my N1 for 3 months now for the power button to completely dead with everyday use (I didn't use any app to trackball-wake).

As I said, all the things you are yelling I have been through. And I, too, thought it was software problem.

I tried both MCR and Cya with no hope.

Good luck!

ps: One of my friend just told me about his N1's power button issue right after hearing me telling about mine.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobecamp2009:
This sucks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palitu:
anyone know where i can buy a new button??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylanrjones:
Corrupt SD Card

I had the same issue. I'd press the power button, the bottom four buttons would light up but no screen wake. Only way to get out of it was to pull the battery. It would happen maybe 30-40% of the time. (Nexus One Froyo FRF72)

I think it was due to a corrupt MicroSD card. I recently installed a 32gb card and put some music on it using songbird and possibly didn't safely remove. That's when I started getting issues. Removed the SD card completely and it worked fine. Changed back to the old card and no issues. Then formatted the 32gb and tried again, worked fine. Then I tried to transfer more music, there was an error and I got the same problem. (Cheap ebay card from Hong Kong, that'll teach me).

Anyway, I'd be interested to know if that solved anyone else's problem, because all I see on forums are that it's a faulty power button, but that didn't seem to be the case in my situation.

Cheers,

Dylan

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbobalu:
Mine is doing kinda the same weird thing but a little different.

When I push the power button the screen comes on but is unresponsive to touch. If I press the power button again the screen dims and then turns off, the home keys light up and then the trackball glows white. The phone then does not respond to the power button for around 10 secs and repeats this behavior 4 or 5 times until it actually starts working correctly and I can swipe my finger to get to the home screen.

It usually does this after being inactive for a period of time, like after sitting overnight.

FRF91

LancherPro Beta 0.6.7.2(maybe the problem?)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jep4444:
i have almost the same issue, although mine happened twice when i was on EPE54B but it's been far more common on FRF91

the only difference is my power will continue to turn the back light on and off no matter if the screen has already timed out or not
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmout:
I have exactly the same issue. Over in the general forum, there's another thread on this issue. Many, myself included, are reporting that this problem started after the FRF91 update. Can you confirm?

Read again carefully. Are you sure your hardware problem was identical to what the OP described? I've noticed a lot of people with obvious hardware problems (i.e., the power button is completely unresponsive) posting on threads like this when they actually have a different problem. It's very confusing.

This sounds VERY promising -- thank you britoso!

PS: Are you guys getting the unresponsive unlock slider like britoso describes?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zephyron:
I had this problem when I first flashed CM6 yesterday. Even after wiping and reflashing it was the same. Only way to get out of the black screen was to do a soft reset, power + vol down + trackball. I finally found out that my SD card malfunctioned and was corrupt. I tried reformatting the sd card in an microsd card reader but windows said it could not be reformatted. I finally switched back to another microsd card that was working, wipe and reflashed cm6 and the problem went away. Try backing up all the data on your microsd onto your computer then reformat it and wipe then reflash to see if it works

Edit: ughhhh it just happened again, but not as bad as before, turns back on after second try... maybe i didnt press the trackball hard enough

I have tried the "Panoramic Guitar Suite" and it is better, the resolution is fine,

BUT, you can only play one chord at a time then you have to select a different chord and play that. Which means, that you can NOT use it as i guitar.

As for Guitar Solo. you can pich or play chords, and select some favorites and put them on the screen so you can change between them.

Play ans sing.

Can someone Please create a app like Guitar Solo ?

you can do it with justvoip.com and "Sipdroid VOIP" app from the market.

3. You can place free calls to same destinations over WiFi or 3G
