[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Not necesarily as bad as you think. Its just like OCing are phones. The phone can get stuff done in less ammount of time. Then once its done, the processor can scale back to a Under clocked speed, consuming less power. I am sure there is a math equation somewhere that could figure out the power used over speed/consumption based on processor time/speed.

Scaling is an amazing invention. :)

Yes there would probably be some detriment to battery life, but that is something super phone/smart phone users are just going to have to deal with as we demand more out of our devices. Nothing is free, and digital power costs electrons. /end

Another thing to think about is that these guys are probably based on 45nm or 32nm chip/gate architecture which means it requires less power to open and close circutry. There are rumors of some 26nm Flash memory being built, which means 26nm chips cant be far off. Smaller means less power consumption and less heat.

Rumor on the streets is HTC is working on a Hydrogen Cell phone.... Fill it up with water :) Given it will likely be years before we see it. But the president did drop rumor of "working Battery less HTC Phone" in a recent press conference. Can't remeber the website I read it on though.

Hello,

On each reboot of my EVO the wifi is "unable to connect"

I've found the solution to the problem and that is to edit the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file which reverts to -rw--r-- or something.

I issue the command chmod 777 wpa_supplicant.conf and everything works fine.

My issue is how do I make it stick? each reboot it seems to go back to the non-working state.

Some Background: I had messed with the Phone.apk and didn't realize that that was why I had lost cell connectivity. I pushed the /data folder back up from my PC. I assume this is why this happened in the first place.

If you have Ideas I'll be happy to try them.

Thanks.

Sorry if this is the wrong section. The other sections did not seem right since this is a issue s dev would likely deal with.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeavery2:
Ok I got it figured out. I flashede a new rom and that didn't fix it so I dug in a little deeper. I compaired my other phones result of "ls -l" and saw that it was -rw--rw--- system wifi wpa_supplicant.conf and this one showed -rw--rw--- root root wpa_supplicant.conf. This means the user and group was wrong. I did a chown system wpa_supplicant.conf which corrected the owner but the group was still wrong. It didn't seem to matter though. I tried chgrp wifi wpa_supplicant.conf but it seems there is not a wifi group on this rom/phone.

I thought I'd post back in case someone else has this problem.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notown775:
my wifi seems to be taking FOREVER to connect... it just keeps going over and over and over and says unable to obtain ip adress. im using my wifi right now on my laptop..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeavery2:
Does it eventually connect though. My problem was that it would take a few minutes then time out. You could really only tell in settings>wireless and networks. I would say "unable to connect"

Test solution is to open connect bot on phone.

type:

#su

#cd /data/misc/wifi

#chmod wpa_supplicant.conf

Now try to connect again from settings>wireless and network. If it connects then yo may need to to a Chown.

EPIC

I am having this same problem on the EPIC, it connects initially to my WIFI @ Home but then for some reason refuses to reconnect back to it later and even though it sees the SSID of the WIFI connection refuses to connect.

I am running a trace on the router itself and I do not see a request from the MAC Address to DHCP, so apparently it is failing to communicate?

It was connected fine before.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] drbadass:
1) Just curious.. I had intended to wait to root until FroYo came out for the evo officially. But if it won't make any difference, I would love to just do it now. Any thoughts?

2) BTW, i have seen conflicting info-- will 4G still work if I root?

3) One other thing -- is there any way to backup my contacts/homescreen config/apps/etc so i can put them back on the phone after rooting?

TIA
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bjweeks:
In regards to 1, as far as I understand it if you root now you have two choices when the official FroYo update comes out. Either you accept the OTA update and lose root or you wait for a "rooted" version of the update to appear in the forums and flash that manually. From what I've seen the update get rooted fairly quickly, so it doesn't seem like a major hassle. I just rooted my phone recently, so this could be wrong.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jiqqaman:
1. If you wanna do it, go right ahead.

2. Certain roms have 4G fixed, some dont.

3. contacts are saved on google server.. titanium backup is what you need, but again that requires root..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Official releases will be released by the devs with root enabled, just like the latest OTA and the stock ROM.

Oh, and if you want to backup: Get Titanium Backup (HIGHLY recommend the donate version), root with unrEVOked, backup everything, really root with Toast's method, then restore it all.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] lc3necro:
So, if I am reading this correctly TheBiles, unrEVOked will *not* wipe current settings, allowing me to root > titanium > toast?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TREYisRAD:
I have the same question:

I've rooted with toast, installed Kang's 2.2 build. I assumed that it would still be rooted, but Titanium backup says I'm not. ("This app requires root privileges")

So if Kang's Froyo doesn't have root access enabled, can I use unrevoked to get it? Or is that just for 2.1?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
That should definitely be rooted. Did you click the "Problems?" tab and install BusyBox? That should definitely fix it. And to the above post: unrEVOked will not wipe anything. It is just an apk.

You know, for future reference, we don't have to help you. You could have used the search function but you chose to make a new thread. Don't get snarky.

Now then, there's a Voice Dial app in the application drawer of stock roms. That is to say, it is close to YouTube in the app menu. If you don't have that, tell us what rom you're running.
[Desire Accessories] RaptorRVL:
Today I have installed a Nokia CK-100 Car Kit into my car. And so far it works great! :D

Pairing was a breeze, fully automatic. And everything seemd to be working out of the box. According to the people I've called for testing there is no echo and the sound quality is very good. Even with the volume very high, there was still no echo.

A2DP seemed to be working very good as well. Played some music to test, and was pleasantly surprised that also worked immediately. I never had an A2DP enabled carkit, so didn't know what to expect really. But the sound quality seemed really nice.

Haven't tried with navigation yet though. Would be nice to get instructions over the speakers as well. Will give this a try tomorrow and let you know.

After hearing about some echo problems etc with the CK-7W I was a bit worried. But fortunately everything worked right away: pairing, calling and A2DP.

So that's why I'm creating this thread, just to give a headsup that not every Nokia carkit in combination with Android (2.1) is a failure :p.

And perhaps others would like to share their experience as well with the CK-100 in combination with Android?

Well, I got it 'via via' for 120 euros including professional build-in and active brodit cradle/holder in the car.

I guess you should be able to get the carkit for 100 euro's (see tweakers.net pricewatch).

If your HTC dont show up, it's usually because the ADB server isnt running. Hope this helps =]
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanFL:
I've rooted a hero before and felt pretty confident with android sdk, usb drivers, etc. After spending an hour trying to get it to work on my win 7 64 bit system, I thought it might save someone some time if I posted what finally allowed me to get adb to work.

My problem was the computer wouldn't recognize the EVO as a device. Even after I installed the usb drivers through android sdk. I tried to manually update them through device manager (pointing it to the usb drivers directory) and still no luck.

As the video linked above showed, the missing piece for me was installing htc sync. use the version that comes on the phone. So connect the phone to the computer, mount it as a drive from the phone menu, then copy over the htc sync directory to your computer, then run it. The version on my phone was 2.031. THEN the computer will recognize it with usb debugging turned on and I'm able to adb to the phone through the command prompt.

Hope that helps someone. Sean

Can anyone tell me what happened? I was in the process of rooting the phone and got through toasts root instructions. Then once the phone booted again, I tried rebooting into Recovery mode and was left only with the "!" sign over the phone with no recovery options.

I had to take the battery out to get the phone to reboot. Once the phone started up I tried rebooting again into recovery mode with the same results. Once I rebooted again I got a message in the notifications saying "blank SD card SD card blank or has unsupported file system" And now it wants me to reformat.

Is there anyway to recover my SD card? I really don't want to loose my backup. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks ahead!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
you didnt run the .bat file included in the evorecovery folder you downloaded. You did download that file right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] My1es:

[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
Yup for right now..there is a topic to use Rom manager now though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] My1es:

[EVO 4G Android Development] ferfy67:
more info. What point in Toast Root did you get this !

Also, like above, did you download the EvoRecovery zip and extract it to your desktop? and follow all instructions?

Also, if possible, always make a backup of your sdcard to your computer before doing any of these things.

However, If you did everything correctly, and it is still doing this....

I think you still could get to your SDCard, if there is anything on your SDCard, (unless it is the EVO SDCard issue)... If you can get to your sdcard thru usb or by taking it out AFTER turning off phone. You could either make your Backup of the card, or put your Backup back on your Card and start over.
[EVO 4G Android Development] My1es:
I got through all of Toasts Root before this happened. It happened when I was trying to boot back into recovery mode to flash the new ROM and Radio.

Fortunately I just found my Micro SD card reader and everything is still there. I'm now copying it to my HD. So all is well.

I guess now I'll just reformat the card so the evo can read it, load everything back on to the sd card and go into recovery mode with the phone plugged into the computer using the CMD. Hopefully everything will work out.

EDIT: WTF, now the SD card reads fine after putting it back in the phone. So weird. I guess now I'll just try recovery mode, Flash, then restore my back up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
yeah you should be fine. and yeah for now i'd just use the adb reboot recovery command then run the .bak file to get into custom recovery. once you get everything up and running you can work on getting the update.zip custom recovery method going which the link is posted below. Will save you from having to hook up to the computer to get into recovery.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Sayuuk:
Hi guys,

I love that the Milestone has Bluetooth Voice Dialling, I do however have one huge problem with it.

I am German and so are most of my contacts, my phone/pc is set to English on the other side.

When I set the phone to German, Voice Dialling works beautifully, when I set the phone to English, Nuance also automatically switches to English, which brick Voice Dialing German contacts (because I need to pronounce them the way you would pronounce them in English...

QUESTION: Is there any way to set the Voice Dialing language (provided by the integrated Nuance Voice Suite) independently from the main system language?

Along with the just released Google Navigation update to include Germany, this would fiy my second biggest problem with this otherwise great phone!

I hope one of you can help me with this.

Thanx in advance,

I have exactly the same problem. what I would like is other application specific setting or a wdget that can quickly switch between the two.

I currently use morelocale 2 to switch between my german-germany and english-germany setting. that way I at least still have german sites and suggestions but with englisch language for voice search and other things. But I have to allways switch it back to be able to hear the street names in german instead of english and to use voice fuctions and dictation.

would be nice if there was a really easy solution for this.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] potpotskii:
Hi everybody! I recently got an HTC Universal from my brother (he has a Tytn 1 and 2) and I use it more often than my pc. Im wondering if I can use it to do simple programs that I cud run on WM. I've searched the XDA forums but I'm still unsure where to start, and if its possible. I have also searched at the Windows Mobile site, but it seems that I'm required to use a pc to make a program. I travel a lot so all I have most of the time is my pocket pc.

If doing an app for WM would really require a pc, is there a way for me to at least minimize it by using my pocket pc?

I think i understand this... well i've managed at least....

i first read of this procedure here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=653566

anyway here are my notes from splicing ROMs

firstly put the 2 ROMs you wish to splice togther in the same place along with the TGTOOL on your pc

file list

ROM1.tsw

ROM2.tsw

TGTOOL.exe

next launch cmd from your PC (note you'll need to run as admin if using vista/win7)

browse to the folder you have placed the above files in

eg

C:\Windows\system32>cd C:\Users\Adam\Desktop\TG01WP-WM6.5-Orange-UK\ROM Build

where the folder containing the ROMs is in a folder called ROM Build & i've put it on my desktop

CMD will now be pointed at the correct location

C:\Users\Adam\Desktop\ROM Build>

1st take out the OS from the radio you dont want to use by typing into CMD

tgtool -sp ROM1.tsw ROM1.nb0

tool will now run & complete above tasks

2nd you'll want to put the OS (that you've just extracted) with the radio that you DO want - type the following into CMD

tgtool -mp ROM1.nb0 ROM2.tsw TG01WP_00.tsw

tool will run & complete the radio/OS splice

the new ROM will be created in the same folder as ROM1/ROM2 & the TGTOOL

at the end the (totally amazing) TGTOOL will perform a check of the 'new' ROM for file consistancy & tell you if its ok to flash with it

once its finished proceed as per the instructions below

Copy TG01_SDDL+ to your 'Storage Card' & copy TG01WP_00.tsw into a folder named 'prg'.

next start your phone - browse to the storage card via windows explorer &

run TG01_SDDL+ and let it flash.

your battery must be fully charged & put the back (battery) cover on so that the battery can't fall out during the flash

hope i've explained ok......
