[EVO 4G Android Development] wastingoctober:
Might I ask what the purpose of taking the phone back to stock firmware then doing the OTA RUU upgrade is? Anyone who accepted the OTA firmware should already be running that version of the ROM, and to my knowledge, Sprint hasn't released another OTA upgrade.

My girlfriend has had some issues with Sprint service, and I'm wondering if this might help the issue.

If you downloaded the update it will work. Just do the above. The attachments are in the second page.

Help Plz

Ok just got my evo and keep getiing the OTA update option on my phone. I haven't said yes to it yet. Trying to understand, should I do the OTA update then am I ok to root? Thx for the help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] lbheightsboy:
If I do it this way...

I did toast's original method, I have everything how I want it, with no ads and using titanium backup. But i want these updates and wifi tethering. If I do it the way posted in this thread, will I be able to restore with titanium backup, and able to put in that hosts file so i dont have ads or??
[EVO 4G Android Development] wastingoctober:
I've got unrevoked running after doing the OTA update along with WiFi Tether. I was just wondering what the point of the first two steps is (unless it is just written to make it futureproof).
[EVO 4G Android Development] elingreen:
i started at step 3 since i already got the update from sprint and it all works fine.

question: is there a wired tether app that will work with this? the one i used to use on my G1 doesn't work anymore...

thanks!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] austontatious:
Wow, that was way easy...
[EVO 4G Android Development] billobob:
This worked for wifi tether while I was never able to tether using toast's root (despite it appearing to work and let me flash new radios/update.zip files etc). Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dukins:
Thanks worked perfectly. Now how do you remove bloatware with the unrevoked root?
[EVO 4G Android Development] slag02:
I have been trying this method - it appears everything works - the wifi tether app starts up no problems and the clients can see the Phone as an A.P. but when trying to connect it appears that clients are not getting an ip address from the tether app - i have tried switching the ip range and still no go

Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] swaze:
sorry, u cant
[EVO 4G Android Development] muncheroo:
pdanet works for rooted/unrooted alike
[EVO 4G Android Development] slackjawedhippy:
Have you made sure the clients are authorized? I just updated to 2.02 and can connect after I authorize the client with no problems
[EVO 4G Android Development] slag02:
I was not using client authentication - I want any client to be allowed to connect - must i use client authentication?
[EVO 4G Android Development] oOflyeyesOo:
This is only good if you ONLY want it for wifi tether(and some other root required apps) on your phone, the only thing unrevoked gives you is superuser control for some applications, that is about it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slackjawedhippy:
Pay no attention to me.. I thought the newer version was released with an AP mode. It hasn't been (yet).
[EVO 4G Android Development] slag02:
No Problem

It just appears that something is not going right with the DHCP server and issuing IP addresses
[EVO 4G Android Development] streetzlegend:
It worked perfectly for me, was able to log on through my laptop via wifi instantly. Thanx alot OP.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slag02:
I think my problem might be I was using the wireless tether app from the market not from the link posted

I'm going to try it and let you know what I find out
[EVO 4G Android Development] darth1289:
Can you go back and root via toast's method and flash custom ROM's once they become stable, if we adopt the unrevoked root now? or does doing this now, permanently exclude you from taking the other approach at a later date?
[EVO 4G Android Development] wastingoctober:
I decided to take the plunge (much to my girlfriend's annoyance--it's her phone) and use the proper rooting method. I put OMJ's ROM on it. I definitely feel better with this root than the software unlocked root that ran the risk of being blocked permanently with an update.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rdboyce:
Will the the tether work on the stock .6 rooted with unrevoked?

I am dazed and confused at this point.. It looks like everything is working properly but I can not find the wifi signal From my laptop.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ifiweresolucky:
After performing the flash update to RUU .1 I am no long able to access 3G. The process to flass RUU .1 was a pain in and of itself. The phone would not connect when the updater restarted it into Bootloader. I had to exit the updater on my PC (Win 7) and then start it all over with the phone remaining plugged in since restarted previously. That worked.

How do I resolve my lack of 3G now?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biggamer3:
I did the Biles idiot guide part 1 for root and installed Wifi Tethers latest version and rebooted like you said and updated profile. When i click on start tethering it says unable to.

What else do i gotta do?
[EVO 4G Android Development] saddamaubhas:
Sooooo

There's no wi-fi tether that we can use with Toast's latest root?

Or can this still work w/that root and I'm just not successful?

I'm geting the "unable to start tethering, please try again" error.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wastingoctober:
I had the same problem with the included WiFi Tether version on DamageControl 3.2 and found that the older version, 2.0.2, worked just fine. I just downloaded it and installed it over the existing version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Saturn2K:

The proximity sensor takes care of that most of time, just turn off the screen or don't hold the phone against your face with the sensor exposed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vizographic:
I've been running hyper dragon III on my tilt for the past few years. A couple of days ago my tilt started acting flakey, pulling up sms, email, contact lists, and dialing random numbers ,44924444466634444.......repeating like a stuck key. I reset but to not avail. I took out the battery and reset again, no luck. I figured it was time to replace my venerable hyper dragon with a shiny new Rom. I chose a clean wm6.5 Rom, ahmedfikry wm6.5 23569 Tilt 3D UC light Rom V2 . It seemed to work... at first. I was excited with the speed, the response, of this new interface and smugly back patting myself ... when the buggy behavior returned; hmm, I thought, a bad flash?, so I went back to the wiki, reformatted SD card, reset, rebooted... no joy! It can't be viral...can it, or worse some malignant kaiser killer cancer; can it? Insights, ideas, recommendations? Please be kind, I'm very vulnerable right now....

UPS just delivered my brand new seidio extended tilt battery! It came a day early, oh joy! Murphy strikes again... : )
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ASCIIker:
if it is starting programs that are linked DIRECTLY to hardware buttons, i would suspect your kaiser's buttons or the cables from the buttons have gone faulty (hardware problem).

everything you say seems to point to things that are linked with buttons...there is a button for sms/email, all the numbers have buttons (on the keyboard) and even the contact list is sometimes mapped to one of the soft keys on some screens (e.g. the "All Contacts" button on the contacts page of manila).

so perhaps your buttons are the problem...they might be "sticking" or a cable or set of cables might have come loose or they might have cracked.

the only other possibility i can think of is that your screen protector might need changing. even worse, your touch screen may have gone faulty (hardware problem). you can try realigning the screen but i doubt that will help if the issue is sporadic.

finally, you might want to see if something physical triggers the issue. maybe holding it your left hand upside down? maybe slide open the top? or maybe more frequent when the keyboard is hidden? or try to apply pressure near the buttons or near the frame of the screen to see if that makes the issues more frequent?

good luck!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vizographic:
ASCIIker thanks for your insightful reply.

I fear you to be correct. I did not think to correlate the type of programs and their use of hardware buttons. I did however disassemble my sick little baby last night after posting. I went looking for pocket gunk or loose connections. I had replaced the LCD about a year ago and while it work fine after that, a loose screw wasn't impossible. Too my never ending surprise it booted up upon reassembly, but to my disappointment it began to exhibit the same freaky symptoms. I decided to do a Rom flash, but now was unable to get to my tricolor screen! After about 20 attempts, I gave up turned it off and put in my new battery. A long charge later, I turned it on to drain and train the battery expecting it to resume its schizoid activity...but no! I find a lovely 6.5 win-mo screen an a well behaved phone. I'm determined to solve this conundrum. I would like to say it was the principle of the thing, but really I'm driven by my ocd nature reinforced by cheapo habits. ASCIIker, do you think if I disconnect the 'd pad' connector I might be able to confirm your hypo? I sure I can get it to repeat its bad behavior if just spend some time reloading and setting preferences. Once I get it perfect its sure to fritz out! Either way thanks again.

Hi,

I'm using HTC Kaiser (WM6.0)and car unit Clarion CZ309E.

I can play music via A2DP make a call but can't enter via BT to my phonebook for any contacts :(

Is there any chance if I upgrade Rom or Radio to solve this problem?

I'm mad of knowing these all functions all working with other dump-phone like Sonyerricson, old Nokia etc.

After I installed the software, I had no connection problems and was able to upload my contacts from WM6 and was even able manually use both BT Phone & BT Audio at the same time [Listen to music from phone while WM6 phone is connected....

I'm not sure but I think they may still have a 30 day trial.

This may correct or move you in the wright direction...

Good Luck!

So I happened to drop my nexus one in a parking lot (bringing my 3yo daughter in to the er...phone wasn't my priority) and scratched some of the unibody at the top of the phone. I had an invisible protector on it (skinomi) but it still got damaged. Anybody know if there's some touch-up paint available anywhere for it? The damage isn't terrible, but I'd prefer to not try to match colors with automotive paint if I can avoid it.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morksu:
So I have an Eris which had the 2.1 OTA update. I checked before I started and the HBOOT version was 1.46, so I wanted to root the phone with the guide from this board (won't let me post a URL, threadid is 647707).

It all goes great until step 4, where you boot recovery and load the rom. I cannot get it to boot recovery for the life of me. I appear to have root to the device, since I can get in with adb and I get the root shell (#). I'm able to copy files over and execute the last command, where the recovery image is written to the recovery partition (though I get no notice of success OR error).

That's where everything stops working. When I try to boot recovery, either by holding VolUp+Power or the command "reboot recovery," the system just hangs at the screen with the three androids on skateboards. I let it sit like that for 45 minutes, hoping recovery just takes a long time to boot. But it looks like it's no good.

About phone:

Firmware Version: 2.1

Baseband Version: 2.40.00.01.22

Kernel Version: 2.6.29-5898f66b htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

I apologize if this has been posted by somebody else and addressed already. I've been googling for about an hour trying to find somebody with this particular problem but I can't find anything.

TIA for any help anybody can offer.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
If you can get fastboot (on your PC) communicating with your Eris via the USB (as evidenced by the "fastboot devices" command printing out your Eris DeviceID), then I would recommend merely reflashing the Amon_RA in one step with the fastboot command.

Steps:

1) Download Amon_RA v.1.6.2 for the Eris

md5sum/filename: e3932991f097993602af3c7a4b61a4f8 recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img

Verify using a md5sum tool (of your choice) that you downloaded the file "recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img" correctly, and that it indeed has a MD5 hash of e3932991f097993602af3c7a4b61a4f8.

2) Power down, remove SD card, and boot into FASTBOOT mode by pressing Vol-Down+End/Power (to get to HBOOT mode), and then press the Send button to go into FASTBOOT mode.

3) Plug the PC and phone together via USB; when you do this you should see the phone display "FASTBOOT USB" (rather than just FASTBOOT). Verify that you have the necessary PC drivers installed by running the command

fastboot devices

If you see nothing displayed, you are not communicating correctly (probably a driver issue); if you are successfully communicating, from the PC to the phone, you will see the Eris Device ID display (starts with "HT...."). If you don't see this, you need to fix your driver issues - there is no point in continuing beyond this point if your PC is not communicating with the phone

4) Install the Amon_RA recovery using fastboot with the command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img

(The fastboot utility will report that it is first transferring the image, and then that it is being flashed on the phone.)

5) After that command completes, wait 10 seconds or so, and pull the battery in the phone to shut it down.

6) Replace the battery and reboot into recovery by holding Vol-Up+End/Power simultaneously.

If this doesn't work, Re-root the phone using the same PB00IMG.ZIP file you used before (put the SD card back in the phone, with that PB00IMG.ZIP file in the root folder, and boot into HBOOT mode with Vol-Down+End/Power), and then after you have re-rooted the phone, re-perform steps 4-6 above.

The most likely reason you experienced the problem you did is that you incorrectly transferred the "recovery.img" (or recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img) file to the SD card - probably you unmounted the card from the PC incorrectly (without ensuring write-back caches on the PC were flushed), and you actually installed a corrupted or truncated version of the file to the recovery partition onto the phone.

Using the fastboot flashing method eliminates that potential source of error as it pushes a copy of the file from the PC itself - and that should have already been verified by you to have the correct MD5 checksum (instructions in step #1 above).

Ok, I've had this over a month and I have never seen the second led blink or turn on.

The first one, near the "htc" letters above the screen, is on when charging and when I receive messages. The second one, above the "Sprint" letters on the top right corner, is never on.

Is it in fact a second notification led or us it there just to preserve the phone's symmetry?

Now I have installed a ROM based on the official update (paul @ modaco's recommended repack).

But what's new???

I see that there are small, incremental improvements here and there, but overall I'm a bit disappointed at the lack of changes/improvements. It's all business as usual.

What's more, it turns out that Google Maps Navigation (the feature I was most looking forward to with the update) is not available in Australia so I can't use it after all.

There's also no voice searching like there is on other phones on 2.1. I tried installing a google voice search APK someone had floating around but it didn't work.

The improved Market app is nice, though I still can't filter or sort entries the way I'd want (how to sort by star rating and filter out anything containing the term 'soundboard'?)

Can anyone suggest some cool new things I can do with my new 2.1 based Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nullie:
Basically you can install lots more apps. But not much more. That's why I revert to stock because it's perfect ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JW 301:
I think you can install an additional Maps apk (i think I have seen one some time ago, must be somewhere on my sd card), then you had 2 Maps entries in your program list, one of them did navigate, even if official navigation was not yet available.

Not sure if that still works though
[Hero, G2 Touch General] hkr:
Be patient, Google Maps Navigation and Google Voice Search are available in Germany and other European Countries since today, I guess, they will come soon also down under :) With 1.5 you'll never see them on the market ...

I've since read about Gallery 3D and live wallpapers. And voice integration in the keyboard. Again, not on HTC's official 2.1. Um... so HTC's customers just miss out?

I guess I could try waiting for the world wide english ROM. But I doubt it'd be something they'd have specifically removed just for the Taiwan ROM (would they?).

My other option is moving to a vanilla (AOSP perhaps) ROM. But then I'd miss the HTC features that are good like HTC mail, Peep, etc.

Anyway, I doubt I'm the first person to have grumped about this, you've probably heard it all before.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bonesy:
Firstly Gallery3d is an aosp thing i think, Its from eclair (Vanilla 2.1) Live wallpapers are not made for our hero,Mainly for HTC Phones using a snapdragon CPU so we wont get those.....Maybe if you had come from the raw 1.5 sense build to 2.1 Sense you would notice the difference?

Having running 2.1 for a while before the update is released will put a downer on the official update..

Oh and now we have no green camera issue
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Neo Cortex:
I was happy with 1.5 but I've installed VillainRom 10 and it's a nice update. Nothing spectacular but it just feels a bit more fluid and snappy. The camera surprised me: it seems a lot quicker and has more options.
