I woke up this morning and the signal was good and strong. Then at 10 am there was no signal on the phone. Tried to get a signal outside and no luck. I called T-mobile but they don't really know what is going on. I tried flashing another radio to see if it was the radio and still same problem. Hmmm what could be the problem I am in New York. Any one else experiencing a signal problem? Or if anyone had this problem before and fixed it. Any help is appreciated.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
You aren't getting anything? No 3G, Edge or just regular?
[HD2 General] dy2k:
Nothing no 3G no Edge nor phone works its stays on searching :(
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
hard reset doesn't work either?
[HD2 General] dy2k:
Nope ^^ tried removing battery, hard reset, changing radios, and manually choosing carrier... I will try the sim card in another phone to see if its the phone
[HD2 General] telleri:
Call tech support back they told my brother they have had several of these calls but no one called them back after they told them to go change their sim card.

We tried the SIM card in another phone and same thing-no signal. So he went to T-mobile store and was issued a new SIM. Still no signal. In my brother's case it has to be an account problem so your best bet is to start there. Maybe try a SIM from another account, even one from ATT should work.
[HD2 General] dy2k:
Got it working :) Thank you all for the advice. Apparently it was a sim card problem. I got a new sim card and I am up and running ^^

(Mashable) -- Were you still deciding whether or not to pick up that shiny new HTC EVO 4G smartphone?

You may be out of luck for some time, as Boy Genius reports that Sprint's new flagship Android handset is entirely sold out across the U.S.

We knew that the device was shattering Sprint sales records right and left, and now it appears that demand has been so blisteringly hot that the EVO is actually unavailable pretty much everywhere.

If you manage to find a secret stash of these phones or to blackmail convince any Sprint employees to let you in on the next available restock date, be sure to send us a tip.

Meanwhile, the HTC EVO 4G is neck and neck with the iPhone 4 in our weekly Faceoff Series (be sure to cast your vote if you haven't yet).

If you were one of the perhaps sizable demographic waiting to see Apple's latest phone before picking up your next smartphone of choice, are you bummed that the EVO is currently unavailable?
[EVO 4G General] Slow Internet:
My local sprint store said they're getting 2 or 3 in every morning.
[EVO 4G General] mike827:
I would definitely check with Sprint, Radio shack, and BestBuy in your area.

I was in the local radioshack last monday, 6/7, and they let me reserve a phone for 50 dollars down for their next shipment coming this friday, 6/11. AND they're opening early for me to come in at 8:30AM to switch my number over and everything.
[EVO 4G General] oreoOozZz:
I just ordered mine from SprintPCS.com 2 days ago and had no problems.
[EVO 4G General] jankyboy:
They're available again on Sprint.com.
[EVO 4G General] Xenithflare:
Radioshack is still taking preorders through the 14th of June. One shipment is coming in on the 11th (this Friday) to stores across the country, and the other is TBD. Most likely not more than two weeks.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
Just placed an order for my second evo through Sprint telesales. They said it was in stock and should ship within 2 days. They only gave 2 days as a backlog cuz of all the orders they need to fulfill.
[EVO 4G General] boomhower:
I just hope BB or RS has one on the 1st when my upgrade is.
[EVO 4G General] YoungAceAtlanta:
I wonder how long before sprint start selling refurb ones. Knowing that most of the apple fanboys just wanted a toy to play with to the iphone 4 comes out
[EVO 4G General] acousticdank:

[EVO 4G General] ballr4lyf:
Just placed my order at sprint.com... They didn't have that stupid message up this time about it being so hot they can't keep it on their virtual shelves. :p
[EVO 4G General] dhowell1:
Just bought an EVO a few minutes ago off the Sprint website, a few hours ago it told me it was sold out but i just went through the whole checkout and it never once told me anything like that. Should be here in 2-4 days :)

Is this for real? Maybe they got a new shipment this morning?

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mlacomb:
All:

This may be a somewhat silly question, but I have a Fuze and am new to playing with Android. Basically threw on the 2.1 bundle, did the 31.5.10 System Update and grabbed htc-msm-linux-20100606_150546-package.tar. All of these things fixed initial issues:

1. With the 2.1 bundle only, wouldn't boot. Stuck on the moving "X" screen (boot?)

2. System update got it booting. Woohoo! However, shutdown doesn't work; hangs on power down. Also, got a call while in sleep and it woke up the screen - I answered the call and it went dark again; couldn't re-wake the screen up.

3. Last update fixed the screen dark issue.

Now that I'm through that, I'm having an issue with Marketplace and I don't know what to search for on this, so bear with me. Basically, when I search for tikl I get no hits. I only get 4 hits for "push to talk". On my friend's Moto droid, he gets the official result for "tikl" as well as more items for "push to talk".

Being new to Android, is this stupid user error, or are there differences in the Marketplace for different devices?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
This definitely applies. I know if you adjust the resolution that Android is running at it changes what is in the market. Not all Android devices are created equal. Screen size differences, different builds, etc have effects on what is shown in the market.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mlacomb:
From what I'm reading, there are others having issues "seeing" this application as well, so I don't feel so bad.

My only other ordeal now is the shutdown. The device still doesn't power off fully - does the little spinny "shutting down" animation; however after about 30 seconds it locks up (no more spin). Waited 5 minutes and had to reset.

Now - every time I reset, I go back to WM. No biggie there, usually when I power the device down it is to get back into WM. However, launching Android again will always run a fsck on the device and plop a 4k file in the root directory. I understand the "why" behind this (the file), but can anyone else tell me why it's hanging on shutdown or have a quick solution?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
It's not working yet. WELL documented issue. Shutdown doesn't work, I think in the newer builds it just resets/reboots the device similar to a soft reset.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] jrodriguezs:
I'm searching for Skype and It doesn't appear in the Market Place.

I guess is only available for Verizon phones or some cell operators

Does exist something like cab files in Windows Phone for Android or better for XDAndroid?

PS: Sorry my bad English!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] JesusFreak316:
First, your English is fine. :) Second, the equivalent of cabs in Android are called apk files. Third, the only skype that I know of for Android is Skype Light link and apparently it sucks. I would try Fring instead.

Discover Magnitude !

Magnitude is an open-source, plugin-oriented and easy to use framework for developing Augmented Reality applications on Android.

The project started on February and is based on Chris Haseman's work on ARKit. We were 10 french students working on the project and we're proud to announce today our first release for developers on Google code.

If you're interested in making Augmented reality applications, just go to our google code and checkout the sources to start playing.

Adding features to Magnitude is easy. You should just develop a plugin by doing a copy of SamplePlugin eclipse project.

Have fun ! :cool:

If you create plugins for magnitude, we would love to see your work !

Hi

I want to remove some apps from my Desire but they are in the main system files, not on the SD card. I've tried App Monster but it only looks at the SD card - is there another uninstall app that would work?

Thanks
[Desire General] Dexil:
what's wrong with the normal uninstaller?

if you have installed from the market you can uninstall it from the the market too.
[Desire General] petez1:
Hi

These are the pre-installed apps (it an Orange phone !!) so there's no uninstall

Thanks
[Desire General] oursoul:
Which apps, out of interest?

The only way to do this honestly is to root your phone and install a CFW.

But maybe the apps that are pissing you off can be solved with just a simple debrand.

or should that be making a touchscreen device elderly/child friendly?

anyhow

i'll admit that i have aked for some input in the modding section before, but i hope hitting a wider audience will help.

i have been thinking of equipping my 6 year old son with a phone. all pros and cons of this aside, i have already thought about it, and the needs outweigh any other issues.

the point is i want to make the phone easy to use for him. large touchscreen, a few buttons to call important numbers, maybe an sos button.

no outgoing/incoming calls to/from nonwhitelisted numbers, none of the other smartphone features.

a feature to be able to send an sms to the phone and have it do something like sending its gps location or the like would also be nice.

the reason i am thinking about using a smartphone not some featurephone is that the smartphone seems more readily modifiable when it comes to the features implemented and more complicated functions.

the elderly phone would be similar, where the focus here is on having the little old lady that misses her rotary landline set up with a phone that is easy to see, hear and use. the touchscreen seems a good fit here because it allows a nice big dialer with contact list etc, while none of the other features (messaging, web etc) are really wanted, in fact shouldn't be there. (have you tried getting rid of the web browsing etc on a featurephone?).

with the number of kids and old people out there a solution to give them a phone that has exactly the features they need without compromise would be awesome.

no apologies for length, thanks for reading all this, have a good one.

[Off-topic] the_scotsman:
Hmmm...it's a good idea to have some way to lock down a phone and limit its features to the ones you mentioned...

Surely there must be some kind of app that enables some kind of "child locks" or limits functions.

Maybe Tasker could help you here. Rules like:

When SMS arrives from "xyz", send SMS to number #xxx with GPS location.
[Off-topic] resopalrabotnick:
Roflmbfhao

I was hoping to retain more functionality than a stock iShiny ever had. :P
[Off-topic] resopalrabotnick:
Tasker looks interesting. At least as a tool to help implement some of the functions.

What i miss most in the feature list is the ability to restrict calls in and out to a whitelist. Sprint offers a blacklist onvtheir network, and I have suggested that they offer an option to select wether to black or whitelist.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lUp:
Hi,

I don't actually own a SE x1 but recently bought a MW600 bluetooth headset which should display title information when playing media files. This feature is available on SE phones (as I've already tested) but doesn't work with other phones (such as my HTC Touch Diamond running a custom WinMo ROM).

Since the X1 is running WinMo, I believe that there should somewhere be a special protocol extension which transmits the track info to the headset. When I pair the headset with my Win7 desktop it is as well missing one device driver, which might be the protocol as well.

Is someone aware of this extension and could uncook it from a stock X1 rom? I would be very pleased.

Thx in advance
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azian_advanced:
afaik, no windows mobile app natively supports this feature, but there is an app called smartwatchm (google it and you'll find it.. yes, don't forget the 'm' at the end) you can install which will activate this feature for WMP. There are other features as well but i stopped using it because it was too buggy for me.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
Hi there,

I found a couple cool apps for our Evo, and wanted to pass them along in case someone else was looking but hadn't found them yet.

LED Light - picolyl - This app turns on our led lights by the camera, and has a widget so you can place it beside your sense widgets for connections, etc.

Mirror for HTC EVO 4G - NeatoFun - This uses the front facing camera and shows the image full screen, so you can check out how awesome you look, or if you've got some boogies hanging out of your nose

Dolphin Browser HD - I used Dolphin Browser on my Hero, but this is a completely different app, it has been totally revamped and has themes and add-ins. It has fantastic multitouch performance also. I'm seriously considering replacing this as my default browser, which I would have never said before.

Google Earth - We can finally use this, Yay! Not so much on the Hero.

Quick Profiles - I've used this since the Hero came out, and it's a great app to manage and create system sound profiles, similar to the ones the old school nokia phones had. I have several set up, from vibrate, silent, loud, nighttime, quiet, normal, etc. It's a great app, I wish something like this was included by default.

there you go, some new ones for me and some favorites too. Enjoy!

[EVO 4G General] briankwest:
I find the 29.99 for true hotspot that can do WPA2 is worth it.. considering the same price you pay AT&T for similar service is more expensive.

the Wifi Tether app can only do WEP and seems to leave the wifi radio on when you turn it off... which drains your battery.

[EVO 4G General] nenn:

I don't care about wep or wpa, access control lists and ssh tunnels are all I need. That other stuff doesn't justify the $30 price tag.

[EVO 4G General] Xenithflare:
Technically, it's only $29.99 for the EVO, so comparing it to other carrier's hotspot plans isn't accurate. It'd be better to use the regular price for Sprint's hotspot plan for that purpose, which is $59.99.

hello there ...

to this day, who has not eared the unfortunate fall of Valentino Rossi in Mugello. The truth is that for most of us, fans of the motorcycle world, and many others that are not so "fanatical" to say the least, the news was like a bowl of cold water. And is that Valentino is known far beyond the world of the bike, simply because his nature, always with a smile on his face. Dando show within the circuit, and also out ... as cracks hehe.

My intention was to create a small web in order to gather as many signatures as possible, where people can write their own message of support for "Valen" and then forward them. I'm moving a little to get employees and that the web has the maximum publicity possible and get something, which in my opinion would be very nice. You can do this from www.forzavalentino.com.

I think he deserves this and more for us to enjoy the way we do, almost, by his mere presence. And obviously, here in our house, Ducati, these rumors about him in red next year ... pufff ... That would be something amazing!

I'm a CHT user and I love it. But just now, I've seen screenshots in another thread using MaxSense and they look awesome too. Going over it, it looks like it's only cooked in some ROMS for now. To tell you the truth, I haven't flashed to a custom ROM.

So, I'm opening this thread to ask your preference: CHT or MaxSense. What do you think are the strengths and weaknesses of one over the other? Is it worthwhile to take the plunge and flash a ROM with MaxSense?

I am attaching a link with MaxSense video: http://pocketnow.com/tweaks-hacks/video-maxsense-ui-has-arrived-and-its-awesome

Any feedback is appreciated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xXJohnXx:
Well i go for Cht.

For 1 simple reason.

I have flashed my omnia so many times i lost track :D

Since a got my first Htc Tp2 i first want it to check it out.

But very fast i got the HD2 and never flashed my Tp2.

With the HD2 i found out i had a powerfull phone in my hand.

It is fast just the way i like it, so i never flashed it.

And i think i will never flash it.

Once i start flashing my phone i will get lost in it for sure again.

Maxsense sure looks great but Cht is just amazing.

Maby if i give Maxsense a chance it will be to.

But Cht....................I really have to say its fantastic.

Its a hard job and takes a hell of a lot of time.

Got a question though. After flashing to a custom ROM, you can still apply some mods to it, right?

The great thing about custom rom is its made for speed

and eyecandy.

All the crap ( thats wat every one thinks for them selfs wat crap is) has taking out of the rom.

When i had my omnia i got seperate cabs for all apps and mods.

So when i flashed i decided wat was going on my phone and wat not.

Thats the great thing about custom roms.

Its made for speed ,memory and eyecandy.

Short answer ..... yes i always did put new mods after custom rom to :cool:
