[HD2 Accessories] xionlionpc:
I dropped my hd2 facedown onto a rock on my driveway. It shattered the screen from top to bottom. Otherwise the phone is in perfect condition, no scratches or chips from the fall and the lcd is fine too.

From what I've concluded, getting the lcd/digitizer/glass pre-assembly would be my best bet as the digitzer is glued onto the glass and the flex is soldered onto the lcd.

SOOOO my question is, where is the best place to get this but more importantly, is the lcd/glass assembly different for the T-Mobile (USA) HTC HD2 than the UK (I think) HTC HD2. I read somewhere that the T-mobile HD2 is slightly taller but I didn't know if that made a difference for the LCD assembly.

cnn.cn has 2 different shells for the T-mobile and other HD2 but not seperate LCD assemblies.

Thanks

Also, the phone seems to respond fine, but sometimes, it seems to freeze...well not freeze but the screen doesn't respond but buttons do. Could this just be the inconsistincy of the glass and the digizter screwing up the response or did I otherwise jack my phone up somehow?

thanks again, this site has been a lifesaver so far as this is my first windows phone.

everytime i turn my screen on (i think) by pressing the power button, i guess wifi turns on. i notice that i lose connection for things like google talk. is there any way i can have wifi on even while the screen is off? i am using y5 to turn my wifi off when i am away from range but that doesnt seem to keep wifi on anymore while screen is off.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
There's an option to keep wifi on when asleep in the advanced settings for wifi. That's all u need to adjust. Go into wifi settings and hit menu to find the advanced settings.

would it be possible to design an app to take screen shots of the apps your currently running, such as shootme or drocap or w/e?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerry43812:
It's not an app, but USB connect your hero to PC, then go to your android-sdk-windows folder, then to the tools folder, then open DDMS. Feature-packed, including the screenshot option.

You want to make another app that does the same thing those already do?

Hi

Just flashed Smoki 0.6.1 and the clock widget (and weather widget/app) shows that the temperature in Oslo (Current location) is -2 degrees Celcius. In reality it's 16 degrees outside.

If I add Oslo, Norway as a City in Weather App, the temperature reads 4 degrees.

Why this difference?

Are the weather data supplied by HTC (or their provider) wrong, or are there any settings or configuration file that can contain code that causes this error?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcguru000:
So I have this g1 sitting here for a few months- great looking phone, not a scratch on it...total virgin- no water damage or anything... a true spectacle compared to me daily driver :) (water damaged g1 with cm 5.07 on it... broken camera, broken wifi module <or so i am guessing since its been that way through all of the different roms ive tried... just shuts off> )

Back to the point-

This spectacle of a g1 - has but one issue... the digitizer doesn't work. No clue why- just wont respond... the g1 has been wiped so I have been stuck @ a "touch the android in its naught spot to continue" screen for a while...

Just decided today that I would try and get cm 5.07 on it... I was remembering (correct me if I am wrong) that android 2.1 didnt bother you with that "touch me" screen when you first booted it up.

So I began with a wipe through recovery- ... formated my sd to fat 32, and threw my DREAIMG.NBH (RC29) on it.

hit the boot loader (camera + power) - boots up as normal- grey screen for the update, and continued with it. Got an OK on each item down the list...looking good.

Update done- hit the power button to finish it- goes back to boot loader displaying the rainbow screen with:

DREAM100 PVT 32B

HBOOT-0.95.0000

CPLD-4

RADIO-1.22.12.29

Sep 2 2008

Serial 0

--

So at this point its all looking great to me- I hit call + menu + power and phone begins to reboot.

But gets stuck @ the freaking tMobile G1 Screen...

I can still access the boot loader... but Ive tried 6 different downloads, re formatted the sd card 3 times, tried a second sd card... tried a copy of RC30 ... nothing works... I get stuck at the G1 screen every time.

I cannot access recovery! Just sticks at G1 screen.

What now? Is this G1 a paper weight?

THANKS!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mblaster:
I don't know if this works with a stock rom, but did you try to get a logcat while it hangs at the g1 screen? Might be useful...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcguru000:
Logcat

I cant do anything :/ Only ability I currently have is to boot the phone via fast boot with a DREAIMG.NBH or sit at a boot screen.

Is there a modified DREAIMG.NBH I should try and run?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maubig:
I had a G1 refurb from HTC on which the digitizer did not work properly. No matter what ROM I installed, same problem, no accurate touch response. It was a hardware issue with the phone. I know it doesnt help with the phone hanging on boot. As far as that, it's a tough one. If you only have the stock SPL (rainbow screen) and no modded recovery, you can't do much other than use a .nbh (release key signed ROM/stock ROM) to flash a ROM. Unless there another backdoor I'm unaware of. Good luck!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
CM roms need danger SPL, if you're on the "rainbow" screen - you don't have it. You shou've not run NBH because that takes away the root and brings you back to RC29. Sound's like you're out of luck on this one. However, now would be a good time to swap out that digitizer for the one out of "mother-of-all-problems" phone.

Good luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcguru000:
danger

I know CM roms need Danger- but at the point I was at I had no way of flashing danger, I needed to first root the phone... the way I have rooted all my G1's was using RC29 first (DREAIMG.NBH) and then using the "type anywhere" exploit to give the phone root administrative rights.

After that i load up a good recovery image, do a nandroid back up etc etc...

Im just not sure why it just died half way through the process- its strange that I can still access the stock boot loader and flash an image but yet nothing happens.

Is it possible for me to flash an image OTHER than RC29- and where could I access that image download?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billquinn1:
That all sounds like it should be working but I would try one more thing. You say you have a second G1. I would try formating the sd card in that phone. It may make a difference. If that does not work you may want to search this forum for "gold card" instructions.

Good luck.

[About XDA developers] Phenomenon:
One thing I noticed many people asking for is if an iphone game can go to a windows mobile device. Android to be ported to Windows Mobile. Android app to iPhone, etc. Instead make a section for this. And people can request the app they want or OS.

Biggest thing I see in some phone's sections is WHEN or IF it will be ported. Currently I've noticed this mostly in the HD2 section. While I know that the porting of Windows Mobile 7 and Android is a long process and it's voluntary I have seen that MANY MANY users have donated to those developers and I just think it would be nice to have some form of dedicated thread/section to show their contributors that it's being worked on.

Evo 4g scratch test

I suppose I should put in the disclaimer that the phone is being returned to sprint because the screen has risen up from the bezel, and that is the only reason that I did the scratch test.

I forgot to mention that I did the same thing to the back camera, but it lasted all of 2 seconds and it scratched.

For the life of me I can't figure out why they would not use the same glass as the screen.
[EVO 4G General] VandyCWG:
Nice to see the screen toughness.
[EVO 4G General] Mecha2142:
I'd be surprised if any of those objects DID scratch the glass, seeing as how glass is harder than most metals.

What you have to REALLY look out for is abrasive materials like sand. This applies to all owners of devices with glass screens. That stuff will leave your screen looking horrible.
[EVO 4G General] Roman G:
Ya, but it seems most people are more concerned about the keys and change in there pocket, not so much sand.
[EVO 4G General] Mecha2142:
That's a bit strange; keys aren't very sharp to begin with, so how would they scratch a glass screen? If anything, a trip to the beach is going to be much scarier than carrying your keys along with your Evo in the same pocket.

Sand, dirt, and a mixture of crap in your pocket is more likely to scuff the screen than anything else. Hence, I always recommend cloth pouches for touchscreen phones.

It is still a good idea to get a screen protector on your phone.

It's scratch resistant, not scratch proof.

[EVO 4G General] Roman G:
Basically the screen has separated from the bottom of the phone. At the end of the video I demonstrate that.
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
mine does this as well, but not to that degree i admit. the glass on the top of the phone is below the bezel, but on the bottom it sticks out slightly. if i press down with my fingernail, it moves slightly. i'd imagine there is some sort of sticky gasket that holds it in place.

romang, congratulations on how widely your video has spread!

I was a little scared of the screw as well, because i had not tried that on the screen yet, I was just rummaging through my junk drawer in the kitchen looking for more change and found it, figured what the hell.

[EVO 4G General] zonyl:
Sadly?, I have taken my EVO to the beach a couple of times already! ;)

When near sand / ocean / water I _always_ put the EVO in a ziplock sandwich bag. The EVO fits perfectly in the half size sandwich bag and the screen / touch input still works great even in sunlight (brightness needs to be 100% though).

The bigger concern I have is where to put it so that it stays out of the heat.

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rosswaa:
iv been trying to figure it out for the last 2 days lol thanks alot, much appreciated
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Swiftwork:
Hope this helps!

To start with I believe that all new 2.1 no longer use the boot animation gifs. They should be in a zip containing a folder called part0 and a desc.txt.

The folder with part0 should contain each frame used in the gif saved as png files with the name any_name_here_00000.png. You need a 5 digit number that increases as the images changes. You can import the gifs to photoshop and then File>export>render video, choose png sequence and define a name.

The desc.txt should be how the animation should be played.

320 480 25
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

320 480 is image size in pixels

25 is fps

p is new line of code I believe

1 is play once, 0 is infinity

0 is delay after

part0 is your folder.

The desc file is hard to get to the right format. So I will upload one and you can edit the values. But don't change where spaces are. It might not work then.

Very important to remember that each system has its own place to put the file. /system/media/ /data/local/ /system/customize/resource.

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rosswaa:
its show like a tv trying to tune into it, everynow and then you see bit of the animation then static like mad so its deffinately showing the gifs, just not displaying them properly
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2500726:
That happened to me too in some of my bootscreens:/ If you go to export in Photoshop it has a function to export it to a mobile device... That should help but it probably doesen't fix it and then the only way to make it work is to turn down the speed...
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rosswaa:
what speed should i be using?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2500726:
The depends on how much of the picture is changing and a lot of other stuff but for me i had to set it for 250ms I think but i may have found another solution:) It's the "update-script". I'll make one for you and upload it to ensure it deletes the correct files etc.:D

I just want someone on here to verify it.

Yeah honestly I'm with this guy ^.
[Droid Eris Android Development] amoamare:
Trust me i dont need to make myself big on xda i could care less.

Heres what I have been doing on them, push the 1.5 root to the phone reboot recovery install like you would root on 1.5 It should complete.

You will notice when it reboots that YOU DO NOT HAVE SUPER USER.

What i did was went to my cmd prompt typed adb shell, i have #. So i proceeded with installing recovery.

Once installing the new recovery i adb reboot recovery again. This time you get the green letters with the recovery, I installed the offical2.1with root over the OTB 2.1 with root. Pretty much you could install any rom with root on it.

Wiped and rebooted. Now i have 2.1 with superuser and root.
[Droid Eris Android Development] AcidRoot:
Correct me if I'm wrong but by 1.5 root you mean the 1.5 to 2.1 rooted update and that only works for phones running 1.5 which we already had. Now there trying to get root for the 2.1 leaks/ota. not to mention i think the 1.5 root was a PB00IMG.zip which is not for recovery.
