[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
I fixed my syncing issue. It was T-mobile's contact syncing that hangs and then goes into an infinite loop. Bloatware/unnecessary functionality FTL. I have a gmail and facebook... I don't a need a T-Mobile contact list too...

On a brighter note, I love my MTS. Coming from a rooted G1, it fits my two basic needs: T-Mo and Android. The Sense Ui could be a little bit less redundant, but it hasn't affected the MTS's performance. Screw this Ghz obsession. The phone may not win a benchmark limit contest, but everyday functionality and the UI widgets blows away my two best friends' iPhone 3GS and Droid (unrooted).:D

I bought this phone Friday and am very impressed with it so far. I had been using a cliq since for almost a year and this slide puts it to shame. I just wish the battery life was a tad bit better. Other than that I"m very pleased.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] NJAZ:
I am returning 2 Slides as they are both filling up with dust under the screen. Buyer beware. Too bad because I love the phone but dust under the screen of the 2 phones I got and several others I know as well is unacceptable. Enjoy your phones guys!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] SE7EN-:
I think I've read several posts on here regarding that. I don't see any holes around my screen that I can see. Have you returned the phone and gotten a replacement with the same issue?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] nomadrider123:
mine is fine i have a white one. Makes me wonder if the first batch is having this problem? I was thinking of the ppl with this problem that might not have gotten them from tmo. They could use a little clear fingernail polish to cover the hole. just a thought.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jriv:
finnaly gave in and ordered a slide over the phone from tmobile should get it around friday im way excited most people are saying its awesome so i cant wait especially since eventually someone will make a kernel past 1ghz.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 1993cb7:
Man i have had this phone for like 3 weeks now and i still love it.

It's the sickest phone iv'e owned.

The only negative i have right now is the Tmobile case that comes with the belt clip.....problem is is that the phone doesn't fit perfect so it feels cheap and the screen feels like it is about to come off inside the case...but once i pop the case off the phone feels solid and there is no play in the screen.

Im keeping the case on though because i WILL drop the phone and i want the case to take the beating.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Matt V:
Besides the voicemail notification that won't go away I'm liking mine.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] r0man:
Coming from a myTouch 3g 1.0 I'm EXTREMELY impressed with the slide. Except for the syncing issue (had to throw out T-Mo's thing) and a random issue where opening the keyboard while first opening the SMS app causes it to go back to homescreen (after it's running there are no problems though)

Pros:

Great screen

BRIGHT

Speedy

Espresso is nice

Cons:

Lots of bloatware

Had to really customize my autokiller because there are loads of processes that are normally covered under different apps
[myTouch 3G Slide General] hypersonicx:
I love this phone too. I picked it up today as a gift from my girls celebrating my 2nd official fathers day and this phone definetly is a keeper. 5 / 5 Stars 2.2 will make it 6 / 5 stars LOL.

I was surprised at how fast it was with the 600 mhz cpu but guess that load of ram makes a difference comin from the G1
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Frank2009:
i ordered one yesterday also and waiting for it to ship :) im coming from a g1
[myTouch 3G Slide General] BSDADON:
Same here. I wasn't planning on getting it because I thought it was such a small step up from my G1 then amazon had them for a penny and I couldn't pass it up. If it isn't as good as people are saying I'll just sell it and wait for the next android phone to come to T-mobile.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] JDenson77:
Have had mine for about 2 weeks. Great phone lol I know this phone is considered mid range but who ever marketed it that way did so for price reason not performance. Just flashed legend few hours ago and adw. Wow how live wallpaper flies and no lag or hesitation when opening apps or changing home screens. Tmobile thank u for helping to make android a reality.... i hope all future android devices from tmobile are as great as the MT3GS......

I got my EVO yesterday. I have rooted and am running a custom Rom. Today I traveled to a place where I know that I do not have 3G. All my family members have heroes and their phones say 1x. Mine still says 3G. Also I still get 1x speeds. (100kbs). Anyone else have the same problem where the indicators aren't indicating correctly?

ok im not sure if there are any threads on this as i am not really sure what to put in the search box for it

i had to reflash a rom to my phone from scratch and cant remember for the life of me what i set the swap size to. any idea how i can check the sd card to see what it was set as through adb or terminal?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gophergun:
Well, you could try putting in

free

in the terminal, that would show you how much swap the OS has set. It might be smaller than the amount available on the SD card, but it's a start.

Also, Q&A, etc.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traumatism:
thanks gopher. its showing up as 0 for swap. when i had set it up on a previous rom. any ideas? and is it possible set up the swap without losing anything on my sd card?

[Desire General] BigPHD:
I've just upgraded my iPhone 3G contract to a Desire and all they did was swap the sim straight over and change it on the computer in the o2 shop, in the past two weeks i've had the desire i've found the internet to be painfully slow and the amount of dropped phone calls terrible in areas where the iPhone had no problems! Should I go into o2 and have a word and could it have anything to do with the sim card being originally for an iPhone?

Thanks in advice for any help!
[Desire General] james1089:
Well certainly isnt sim card problem, have you gone through all the settings to make sure 3g is switched on.I am waiting for my Desire to arrive as they

are sold out but I now have to pay extra £5 amonth to get 3g it no longer comes free with a £35 contract.So maybe you didnt upgrade your contract let us no the out come.
[Desire General] pympster:
I had this problem on the iPhone, HD2 and the Desire. It IS O2!
[Desire General] james1089:
Well I have Hd2 at the moment but waiting for Desire (probably wednesday according to o2)which do you prefer of these two phones.Im all iphoned out not even 4g interests me now.
[Desire General] Dunbad:
Well im on o2, and have a contract iphone sim in it that hasn't been altered in any way (waiting for the phone call from o2! Or extra large data bill!) But anyway, I have no speed issues. Quicker than my 3gs! People knock o2 but its good for m me where I live and work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
I know you had to push a reboot file to get it working on some Hero ROMs. What about the EVO version?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] watzone69:
The Hero way works.

FIRST, install Quickboot from the market. Run it and enable it in the superuser permissions screen.

Download the reboot.txt file I attached and rename it to "reboot" (take off the ".txt"). Move it to where ever your "android-sdk-windows/tools" folder is.

Connect your phone to your computer (make sure it is "charge only") and boot into recovery...

adb shell
reboot recovery

Start your "Windows-recovery.bat" (if using windows) and let it do it's thing in the CMD prompt. Keep that prompt open.

In a CMD prompt

OTHER THAN

the one opened by recovery.bat type...

adb shell

mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

exit

This will keep your system mounted but get you out of shell. Now type...

adb push reboot /system/bin

adb shell

cd /system/bin/

chmod 755 reboot

reboot

Once you're back up, run Quickboot and choose either reboot or recovery (both will now work). It takes about 5 seconds to start rebooting but it does work. :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] joeavery2:
What does this do? does it make recovery stick?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Woo! Thanks!

Edit: Didn't seem to work for me. Damn.

No, this just lets you use the QuickBoot app from the Market to reboot your phone.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] watzone69:
adb shell

cd /system/bin/

ls

See if the reboot file actually got pushed to the directory. If so, try this:

chmod 755 /system/bin/reboot

The only other thing I can think of is that I installed Quickboot BEFORE doing all of this. Did you get the SU permission screen when you tried to run it?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] watzone69:
Any luck??

Did I mention that the Quickboot "recovery" button works also? Much easier than opening a shell and typing it in. :)

Of course you still have to run the recovery.bat to get the custom recovery but at least it's one less step.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Still no dice. I also already had QuickBoot installed and granted it root permission prior to pushing the reboot file.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] joey3002:
any update to this?

thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] watzone69:
It doesn't work for you?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] watzone69:
I updated my earlier post to give more instructions for getting into recovery and pushing the "reboot" file. I hope it helps!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] chocmatic:
I have a ROM ready to go that changes a couple icons and quickboot works with no probelm. Wifi tether is the only thing I don't have working. I can post it if you would like. I also removed sprint apps and some widgets

I seem to get this randomly as well but not 'goo', it's usually the start of something I have typed recently.

Not massively so. This has been the only word that has appeared with the problem. Never had the beginning of another word.

-I have tried MTTY 1.42 following this thread

->MTTY recognizes the device but keeps telling me "Command Error"

Do I have to use other commands from the Universal?

-I have tried to use Terra Term Pro 2.3 following this thread

-> it seems that TTP can not communicate with it as I am only able to choose COM 3 (no USB, all others tell me "cannot open com X").

If I go on using COM 3, i get connected but no response on "r2sd all"

Is there a way of accessing the phone via Linux?

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
In your active sync connection settings on your pc, you need to check 'allow usb connections'. Then set the com to usb. I'm guessing that's the problem (could be wrong, lol).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m_pa:
Thanks, but the problem is that AS does not recognize the phone anymore. That is why I am trying to access it in bootloader mode. Or does it make sense to check allow usb connections when the phone is not attached and I would have to shut down AS prior using MMTY/TTP?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
You need to change the AS settings so you can connect to the PC through USB when you're in bootloader mode. Just try it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m_pa:
Ok, did not help.

No response from TerraTerm and MTTY does not even tell me "Command Error" anymore :(

Do I use the right commands?

TTP: "r2sd all"

MTTY: "d2s 70100000 04000000" / "d2s 74100000 00a00000"

Is there another way, another tool for me to try out?

How to access it using Linux?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
There are a couple issues I am seeing here.

1. No POP notifications - not the icon on the icon bar, and not the notification sound which I have assigned. (The mail downloads most of the time, but no notifications at all.)

2. I am at times getting "not enough space to download this mail" messages even though it is a new phone and I am pretty sure there is a lot of space left. I exchanged my previous phone today and this is a brand new phone with the same issue!!

Notes:

My previous phone had this issue with 1.5, and I upgraded to 2.1 and the issue persisted.

Also this occurs whether there is a memory card in the slot or not. (also the mem card is not full)

Now the new Hero which I got today has the same issue...

Any ideas? Anyone know how to check the available internal mem space? And how could it have gotten full in 2 hours of use anyway? My other heros have more apps and no such issues.

Thanks!

I saw this animation and went nuts! I think this would be really rad as a boot animation and even a live wallpaper. It is really just a series of gif files right? I wish I had better knowledge of flash and gif animations like this but I do not. YET! Until then, anyone want to tackle this? I will donate to whoever pulls this off. =) If you read this and think, "I know of this really cool Zombie/dead/grave animation." Post it! I know there are a lot of requests for bootanimations etc. sorry for adding to the mess, but I am really excited about this! Thanks for reading!

Here is the link:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] knightnz:
The animation is a bunch of .PNG files, 1 for each frame, so there could be quite a few of them for that anim. You'd need to find the source and resize it to something more appropriate. Being that it's a 4:3 animation you'd have some issues making it a resolution so that it looked good on the 10:16ish display

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ogdobber:
kc.rkitek actually made the original robot (i just learned that). I got it off a buddy and modded it.

The zombie I posted was actually the 3rd version. In the first on I flipped the colors (but didn't resize), second I resized (and flipped colors), However, the zip ended up being 20mb! not only could I not upload it here (8mb limit) but it lagged the boot up.

[HD2 General] alecs:
I am a formula 1 race fan and the official website provides a rich and powerful java app for PDA's that is truly cool. It provides live timing, circuit data, weather conditions etc

See http://www.formula1.com/mobile_services/live_timing.html

The application detects I am downloading this to my HD2 and it installs well and runs quite well. However everytime I shut it down I have to go to the website to download it again !?

It doesn't appear in my installed applications list and I can't find the formula1.jar file it downloads.

Can one of the code gurus on here help track down where this app goes so we can have it all the time?

The only clue I can see is that it shares the same icon as the jblend application found in the tools section.

What is JBlend???

When I click on jblend I get the F1 2010 application appear with several options (one of which is local install) but nothing other than going to the full download works.

Can someone help please I am obviously not across the java implementation here
[HD2 General] FRANQ_23_PL:
JBlend is a Java emulator.

Open it and your F1 app will be on list. Mark it and run - thats all.
[HD2 General] alecs:
Hi Franq, I get "Uncaught exception!" when trying that. Thanks in advance of any additional help you can provide.
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
A lot of people have had problems with the F1 live timing, the issue is Jblend. Install Myriad Java then download the Living timing again and it should work properly.

In fact I'll just upload the stuff :)
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
yes I can confirm this works :)
[HD2 General] FRANQ_23_PL:
xavierdemon thanks for share! I did'nt know that there is some other Java emulator. I need it for emulate Java apps, which use Bluetooth - JBlend can't do that. I hope this one can. Thanks

Many thanks. I'll give it a go. Didn't realise the HD2 had such a crap Java emulator.
[HD2 General] foxcheng:
Myraid is the best java emu ^_^
[HD2 General] alecs:
Hi I installed it and can't find it anywhere in my programs list though it is listed on my installed apps list.

Also I deleted the app from JBlend but when I go to download the app from the website again it choses JBlend to use for the install.

When I go to run the app I get the same problem in JBlend.

What am I doing wrong?
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
Reset after installing Myriad and then just unzip the attached file and copy the contents to your device and run it.

:)
[HD2 General] alecs:
Brilliant ! A nice shortcut in the program group has appeared!

How did you do that ??

How did you guys get hold of the Install file and how did you setup the install to ask the extra questions such as where to install the app so it appeared?

Why did the application writers not write it to do this!?
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
LOL lots of question there :) but as I said before it's a well known problem caused by Jblend being frankly just utter rubbish :).

The Live Timing is awesome though adds a whole new dimension to the races :).
[HD2 General] alecs:
Agreed re the awesomeness of the livetiming. I always watched the races on my PC with the full web version of live timing running side by side to the broadcast. Now I can sit in front of the big screen and just watch the live timing from my PDA.

Many thanks
[HD2 General] alecs:
Hey xavierdemon, I am getting prompted that a new version of the app is now available for download. I wonder if you could create a package like you did previously for my HD2 using the updated version?

I'd love to know how you did this so I can do this myself and I can stop hassling you my friend.
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
Just use this link :)

[HD2 General] M3PH:
quick question on the java side of things. Is there a sun java version for windows mobile still? i remeber having it my artemis but i can't seem to find a copy of it anymore.

The living timing app does sound cool, though. I think i'm gonna go get it and try it out this weekend. I'm also wondering if there is something similar for the Le Mans 24 hours. On that note check out radio le mans. I used it last year for the commentry and it was so much better than eurosport.
[HD2 General] Ch@rly:
I also had problems with Formula1 and JBlend.

So I installed Java Myriad

With Myriad no problem using Formula1 (2010 App)

But I can not run.

When I open Myriad, I have my application but I do not know how to run it.

So every time I pass by the formule1.jar which retry installation, then launch it.

How to run it from Myriad or better make a shortcut to launch my application directly
