[Droid Incredible General] simply artt:
On and off the subject... I've gone through 2 Incredible's and replaced a screen on one because I ran the phone over. I've yet to have any issues with the screen being unresponsive whether I/it was grounded or not. But I have noticed, it will go unresponsive depending on the charger I use. I have used multiple USB chargers, micro USB cables, and combinations of. The phone chargers fine. But will not respond to screen gestures if plugged into a charger it doesn't like. The various cables I've used didn't seen to be a factor in this issue. Just the chagers.

BTW: the factory charger only lasted a couple weeks... lol

I am on my 4th incredible the first one was a software glitch before the incredible ever was rooted. all the others were due to "like new replacements" having screen brightness and hue issues. but every single one including the one I have now has had the grounding issue. I notice certain surfaces affect it. my bed is the worst. also anti glare screen protectors from verizon seem to reduce sensitivity.
[Droid Incredible General] bilbobrian:
Have you tried any roms built from source? My unresponsive screen issue disappeared after flashing cm-6, and hasn't returned.
[Droid Incredible General] Shiftyshadee:
I found that I can't have Criss Angel levitate my phone and move the screen with my mind. I hope HTC fixes this.

Hi guys.

I have a question about I9000's MMS.

I lived in Japan, and I'm using iphone's SIM on HTC HD2.

But I can't use MMS without changing User Agent.

Windows Mobile can do it.

Then...Can I change User Agent of MMS?:confused:
[HD2 General] bibbe:

[HD2 General] bibbe:

[HD2 General] kilrah:
You should check your timezone and regional settings.

[Desire General] zaki67:
I am new to android devices and i bought an HTC desire.

I have the device for about 2 weeks now and I am noticing more and more that it gives me no service in areas where the network should be perfect,i have to restart the device to get service again.is anyone facing a similar issue?
[Desire General] kazgor:
i got that just yesterday.. wasn't sure why.. I restarted the phone and Service came back.. just thought it was an oddity until you posted. how weird.
[Desire General] carrige:
Happens to me when I'll be indoors (where there's 0 reception) and I go outside again, the phone doesn't always lock onto a network for whatever reason. Quick way around instead of restarting the phone is to enable Flight Mode (settings > wireless > flight mode) and disable it again to turn on the phone radio.
[Desire General] zaki67:
i noticed that also, when i use an elevator it sometimes does not get the network after i go out.this is becoming an issue for me because i have to keep checking if the phone is working or not.

thanks for the tip ,makes the process easier
[Desire General] MasDroid:
You could also try rooting your phone and then flashing a different compatible radio rom version as this could improve certain conditions such as GPS strength, Reception, Battery life, Wi-Fi, etc.

I have a stock Desire locked in Vodafone, just did the last Firmware over the air Update and the radio updated from the worst version 5.0.0.something to 6.0.0.02 (I think, not the latest, the one before that).

Reception improoved, not by much, but to some extent. But now it prefferes to jump faster to GPRS data than before. So when I move around the house some people might get a busy tone because weather or mail is updating, and THIS IS FRUSTRATING ...

I tried from the *#*#info#*#* menu to limit it to GSM (PRL) but it made no difference.

Also it gets hot, 10 minutes of internet browsing through wi-fi/3g gets it up to 35 37Celsius and that is HOT ... Is this normal ?
[Desire General] subharmonic:
Yeah - I noticed this over the weekend too.

Not for calls, but just for data.

I think it might be to do with Juice Defender.

I actually did a factory reset, just to get my data to work again.

Same problem occurred this morning, so I binned Juice Defender, and it worked immediately afterwards.

FWIW, mines is a TMob Desire...
[Desire General] zaki67:
Actually I did not want to root it since rumors have it that there will be an update on the 23rd of this month to Froyo
[Desire General] MasDroid:
I was using a different Radio version but have not flashed back to the original stock version (04.00.05.11) already, after browsing for 10 mins or so, the battery temp rises to a max of 29.5 degrees celcius, which is more reasonable than 35-37 degrees celcius. Sticking with this version for now.
[Desire General] oawalker:
Having the same problem the data goes off all the time and i have to restart to get it back on. recently my phone has been getting hot after very little use.

I am rooted running froyo with the latest radio.
[Desire General] nfsnfsnfs:
It happened to me today .I am on stock 2.2 , no root. I take the phone from pocket and try to call , its does not go . Now I look into phone and it says "No service " .What crap ? . Now restarted the phone and service is back .The Android is not stable enough still .Basic things like calling should be rock stable .

Right, have tried everything to fix these icons, but no joy. Even tired JWMD icon changer, but still no joy. Any ideas?
[HD2 General] store2edu:
Try GSFinder+ v1.04 File Manager to look at broken Link.

I am new to the ht2, but appears the link is broken between this icon and it's link location. I just found an old File Manager call GSFinder+ version 1.04 (aka GSFinder 1.99) which i really liked due to its many options. Try searching for it or using this one attached which works for me.

[Hero CDMA General] skanndelus:
so

sick of the 2.1 contacts app

downloaded the old one

used root explorer to copy the 2.1 apk and odex to the sdcard

pasted the 1.5 in the system/app folder

and... nothing happened, didn't show up under apps

so put the 2.1 back in there, and now that isn't showing up either... did i miss a step?

edit:

i tried adb push and adb install

got install errors with the 1.5 and the 2.1 apks

wtf?

any tips?

thanks!
[Hero CDMA General] dametzg:
I've found using Root Explorer to place .apk files back into the /system/app folder won't make them reinstall. I always just push the file there with adb and then restart the phone. That works every time for me.

I would be surprised if the 1.5 app worked in 2.1. I didn't notice a difference between them when I moved to 2.1 a few months ago. What don't you like about it?
[Hero CDMA General] skanndelus:
having to sync your fb contacts to use photos

and there seems to be a physical memory leak or something because my contacts were at 30mb

restarting didn't seem to work, i will try it again... any other suggestions?
[Hero CDMA General] skanndelus:
No idea? Phone really sucks without contacts. Guess I could restore a nandroid.

nvm above method worked now will try 1.5

1.5 HtcContacts.apk would not install

Original Google Contacts.apk would not install

maybe they need to be resigned
[Hero CDMA General] Jus10o:
Flash whatever rom you currently using over top without wiping. It should fix any apps removed. And keep all data/homescreens the same.

Nandroid before doing so just in case.
[Hero CDMA General] skanndelus:
luckily there was no need, since using the adb push method worked just fine for reinstalling the 2.1 contacts app.

thank you for your reply!

airplane mode at 50%,after 8 hours in night battery goes to 35%.Before I controll process,and no third part program was on.Is it normal?
[Legend General] raf2k:
its not normal

Its definitely not normal. I think you sholud call HTC support.

In flight mode the battery usage is very low. After 8 hours it should use maybe 2-3%

I think some program in background consumes cpu and battery with the phone in stand by too.Can you suggest me a valid task manager?

[HD2 General] RoN_HD2:
Hi all,

I'm contemplating updating my ROM from the o2 stock 1.43 to the recently released 1.72 ROM via the HTC website. If all goes to plan, I may be tempted to flash a custom ROM in the not too distant future.

However, a piece of info on the HTC website has slightly unnerved me. It is as follows: The update will take up to 30 minutes, DO NOT interrupt the update process, make/receive phone calls, disconnect the device from the PC, or press any buttons until the process has been completed.

It's the make/receive phone calls bit that I'm worried about. Obviously I ain't gonna make a phone call while flashing, but how can I stop anyone from calling my number during the flash? And if someone were to call me during the flash would I end up with a bad flash and a possible bricked phone?

Please reassure me guys cos' until so, I ain't attempting it.
[HD2 General] cozzykim:
Take your SIM card out.

It's worth it,There are many benefits to the official ROMS later than 1.43

Don't worry too much, the reflash is relatively safe and straightforward.

[HD2 General] RoN_HD2:
Thank you! So obvious I never thought to remove SIM card.
[HD2 General] Desmac:
O2 ROM upgrade - problems

I updated my original o2 stock 1.43 to the recently released 1.72 ROM via the HTC website as you are contemplating. since then, the following has happened: Text 'all messages' and 'reply' fonts are so large that editing is impossible, The weather no longer recognises my location. Thes matters do not appear to have a solution. I applied a full backup (SPB Backup) which may have aggravated matters, but I don't want to re-install everything from scratch. Think carefully before upgrading.

Desmac
[HD2 General] Xp3RiM3nT:
arghhh >< why do people use backup's between different rom versions.

The reason why it doesnt work and causes these problems is because the backup software stores the entire registry hive as part of the backup, a long with some system files that are part of the rom. when you use a backup taken froma previous rom, it restores settings values that may not be approriate for that rom and also can remove registry settings and system files that the older rom did not have.

to fix this issue you should do a hard reset:

taken from : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=583638 by tboy2000
[HD2 General] Steve_Walker:
Backups

There is an option in the latest SPB builds to do "Device and ROM upgrade modes" when doing a backup/restore.

SPB User Manual - Device and ROM Upgrade Modes -

Now you can safely upgrade your device ROM or change your device and seamlessly restore your data. SPB Backup will automatically detect if the restore process is being performed between different devices or ROM versions and prompt you to select the upgrade mode to perform.

But as the poster above says I would avoid doing this imho as it is pretty easy to reinstall programs and settings yourself and you don't have the worry of messing up system files (which it sounds like the big fonts issue is).

You could backup contacts & sms & emails & pictures etc - and then restore the user data rather than the system.

However SPB may work fine - I just prefer to start over with apps which I keep on the SD card and use autoinstall to put them back :-)
[HD2 General] ebeam:
I updated to the new O2 rom, then reinstalled all the software/tweaks I like.

I've found it to be at least as good, and IMO, better since I did the update. I used the my phone app to replace my contacts, etc. Took me less than one day to get the phone just as I wanted it.

My advice would be go for it!
[HD2 General] RReckless:
It was my first rom update. Very straight forward and a very big difference with the phone. I found it much, much quicker and smoother.

RReckless
[HD2 General] lee-bowman:
I agreee with above, I updated my O2 ROM to the 1.72 with no issues.

spent about an hour re-adding the apps and tweaks but worth while
[HD Mini General] tostaky10:
Something I've found really annoying:

Using the Calendar (Windows not Sense), in Day and Agenda view, the days of the week (MTWTFSS) do not appear at the top of the screen and so navigation is very difficult.

All that is listed is the date (ie "06 Jun 2010"). Wheras on other WM6.5 devices you see "06 Jun 2010" followed by "M T W T F S S" with the current day highlighted.

Anyboy else annoyed by this and has a registry fix??

Many thanks ...

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0066:
Hi guys. I was hoping someone could help me as i'm having quite some trouble with my custom recovery boot on my GSM HTC Hero...

The problem is that regardless of what i do. after about 5mins while in my recovery bootloader (amon ra's v1.6.2), the bootloader will simply freeze up or reboot itself and hang on the HERO bootscreen...

I've tried reinstalling the recovery bootloader.

Tried installing clockworks recovery bootloader and reinstalling amon ra.

I just installed HTC's official firmware and rerooted my HTC hero.

But to no avail. It will still freeze or reboot and hang after about 5mins of use when in recovery mode...

It's troublesome because i'm afraid to upgrade my radio to the latest version since if it freezes while flashing i might brick my phone... And i don't want that.

I'm clueless as to what i should do next.. Does anyone have any clue as to what is happening, or even having experienced it before and found a solution?

Hope anyone can help.

Best Regards

Well if you ever come beck then try this. If you haven't already installed the drivers for your phone onto your computer do it now. Plug your phone into your your computer do you get a light or try to plug it into charger if you get a light it's not bricked. What you want to do if it's not bricked is run a ruu on it.

Root guide for users who have unbranded(unlocked) Desire

Guide to root with Tiny Core Linux

IMPORTANT - this tutorial will not work if you have installed 2.2 OTA update from HTC!

Download Tiny Core Linux Live CD

---- For a bootloader of 0.75.* or lower AND a current ROM of 1.15.* or lower Download

---- For a bootloader of 0.80.* or lower AND a current ROM of 1.21.* or lower Download

Burn the downloaded iso on CD/DVD

Boot your computer from that CD/DVD, once you booted it will ask you to press Enter or F2/F3 keys, you need to press Enter

Start the HTC Desire in bootloader by holding back and turning it on by the power button

Connect the USB cable to the phone and PC

Open a terminal by clicking the icon that looks like a monitor at the bottom on Tiny Core Linux and type the following commands:

sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom/desire
sudo ./step1.sh

Wait until the phone restarts back into the white bootloader screen

In terminal type the following command:

sudo ./step2.sh

Once the phone has finished, you will see a screen with a green text. Use the optical tracker to navigate the menu to select Wipe and then press Wipe data/factory reset

Once complete you should be back in the main menu. Now select the option Flash zip from sdcard and than choose rootedupdate.zip

Once back in the main menu, choose restart the phone - the rooting process is now finished:)

Guide to root using Windows, MAC OS X and Linux

!Some people reported that this method needs to have GoldCard(in most cases you won't need it) even if you have unbranded device, more here

You need to have Android SDK and HTC Sync installed(for Windows users)

Download following items:

---- If you have a bootloader version 0.75.xxxx or below AND a current ROM of 1.15.xxx.x or below - DOWNLOAD / MIRROR

---- If you have a bootloader version 0.80.xxxx or below AND a current ROM of 1.21.xxx.x or below - DOWNLOAD / MIRROR

Unzip the file you downloaded to a directory, then open a command prompt / terminal window at that directory.

Turn off your HTC Desire, then turn it back on with the 'back' button held down. You'll see 'FASTBOOT' written on the screen in a red box. Connect the phone to the computer.

In the command prompt/terminal window, enter either 'step1-windows.bat'(for windows), './step1-mac.sh'(for mac) or './step1-linux.sh'(for linux)

Navigate to the 'BOOTLOADER' and then 'RECOVERY' option on the menu, using the volume buttons to move and the power button to select.

In the command prompt/terminal window, enter either 'step2-windows.bat', './step2-mac.sh' or './step2-linux.sh' as appropriate.

When this has completed, your device should be at the 'recovery'("green") screen. Select Wipe and then press Wipe data/factory reset

Once complete you should be back in the main menu. Now select the option Flash zip from sdcard and than choose rootedupdate.zip

Once back in the main menu, choose restart the phone - the rooting process is now finished
