[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zethmir:
I simply asked if anyone knew about these errors. I didn't say fix them.

BTW if I was an Apple fanboy I would have preordered a iPhone 4 instead of the EVO. But sorry your way off on that lol. I am just a gadget person. My iPad and MacBook are for work and school. Heck if I wouldn't be getting so much for my student loan I would of never gotten either, well maybe the iPad because it was a great replacement for the iPhone.

I am going to stick with android, and going to go buy a Nexus One. I am thankful for your guys help, sorry if I offended anyone but it just struck a nerve. This is the reason I don't post on forums often for help. Anyways I will keep an eye on the EVO for future possible purchase. I guess when it came down to it, the screen issue (separation and faulty grounding), the meh battery life (I didn't say it was bad it was just sub par), the 30fps limit (which shows), and the poor service in my area were the downfalls for me with the EVO.

I hope you guys all have better luck then me and enjoy your great phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OneStepAhead:
I love that your screen shots show the Evo battery as yellow. Thats the only color my battery ever is... :D

Im wondering why you didn't just exchange the phone for a new one if you suspected a hardware problem?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
The screen separation isn't rampant, and a silly reason to dump the phone if you're not suffering from it.

I have a Nexus One and an EVO 4G. I also have every version of the iPhone from day 1, and should be receiving an iPhone 4 this afternoon if FedEx delivers as promised, so I can speak to each of these with some experience.

I think you'll be EXTREMELY disappointed in the Nexus One if you switch to it after having an EVO 4G. The Nexus One's screen is over-saturated and biased towards too much, I mean TOO MUCH, red. The camera puts a large pink blurred circle into every picture you take. The touch input is very flakey, regardless of ROM you use. It's almost impossible to type accurately on it unless you install Swype or ShapeWriter. It's extremely difficult to see the screen outdoors - I couldn't even get a podcast playing while walking to lunch the other day until I found a big shade tree to stand under. Battery life on the Nexus One is probably the worst of any phone I've ever owned, though that may be a network lack of signal issue (T-Mobile). Speaking of T-Mo, if you get T-Mobile version instead of AT&T you can look forward to lots of missed calls and lots of no 3G coverage areas.

The Nexus One has some great features, including the awesome speaker phone and noise canceling mic, a beautiful hardware design that puts even the legendary styling of iPhones to shame, and it fits great in your hand. And don't forget the fantastic ROMS by Cyanogen and Modaco, but if you're not happy with an EVO 4G I think we'll see you posting over in the Nexus One sections soon enough with some ultimatum about "fix the touchscreen or I'm returning this phone" or some other such issue.

Good luck with whatever phone you pick, because with Android phones, there's ALWAYS some glitch or flaw with the phone that will annoy you, and there's ALWAYS a much better phone coming out next month or two (Droid, then N1, then Desire, then EVO, and upcoming Galaxy S). iPhones have issues too, but at least with your iPhones you don't have to worry about a new better model but once per year - but then you have far fewer options for hacking and the latest hardware. ;-)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john nance:
I know it's too late to help in this instance, but in the future try asking your questions over at ppcgeeks. They play nicer over there. Most of us here on xda seem to have personality problems and can't play too well with others. You said you might try a nexus one. I have one of those too. I prefer the Evo hands down... If I were you I would go back to Sprint and buy another Evo, You will be much more satisfied down the road. Don't let these folks get under your skin!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manooti:
i know its a late reply but ill post anyway. i had the exact same problem. a sprint tech helped me out and called me throughout the day to see if it was working. basically he helped me do a reset of the phone to attempt a fix of the low reception. after that we had to grab a tower and because the tower was down i was getting the exact same problem as OP.

he noted that the phone couldnt be processed in the system yet because of the tower so he would call me and let me know if it went through or not. and if it did to continue troubleshooting it.

i kept on trying all day and it went through a couple of minutes before he called me as if he knew i got through. then it was fixed.

dont remember what we did because we entered a bunch of numbers in the dialer, but i know we reset everything and updated everything. it was durring the update that was causing the problems and recurring errors like what the OP had.

if its rooted id say update but i dont know which not to update since you could lose root. i would unroot, run all updates and register phone automatically and if it works then root. if not call tech and see if it can be registered automatically somehow. when it works, root.

just posting this for future reference because i didnt see anyone mention something like this here

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] litop00p:
i was just in china a few weeks ago with family so i know the answer to this. when u go to china, buy a SIM card. all their cards in china are prepaid. just switch the cards, make sure u dont lose the original. after switching the cards and turning phone back on, go to setting>personal>phone>network> then choose GSM. and you are done. if you are coming back to USA then do the same steps and click CDMA for the last step

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] waitingyou:
Don't buy CDMA Card in China,it can not in use.

Just buy GSM Card.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] tekdemon:
That only works if you have a Sprint Touch Pro 2. If you have the Verizon one you'll have to unlock it to take other SIM cards.
[HD2 General] Bullhead00:
I'm just curious if there's anyone out there with an HD2 on Verizon? If not, is it possible to do it? The HD2 is a quad band device, so doesn't it have the hardware capable to be on a CDMA network? I was thinking that if I bought an unlocked HD2, I would be able to put it on my account with Verizon. I guess I would have to be running a different radio in order to do that though.

Anyone have any thoughts, comments, suggestions? I really want one of these phones, but I can't switch from Verizon because no other provider gives me 3g in my area. Plus, my Touch Pro 2 is getting dated compared to that 1gz Snapdragon!
[HD2 General] Paten:
HD2 is a GSM phone. Pretty sure it can't be made to work on a CDMA network.
[HD2 General] Bullhead00:
Technology

GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

WCDMA/HSPA: 1700 MHz (AWS) / 2100 MHz

Taken from the HD2 tech specs on HTC's website.

If it has a CDMA radio, why couldn't it work if it were unlocked?
[HD2 General] Paten:
Does Verizon have a sim card to put in the phone? If not, how can they make it work on their network.
[HD2 General] watcher64:
Verizon does have sim cards, they use them in the Blackberry Storm, which is both GSM/CDMA ...

But It may be like the storm if it is activated via the IMEI that it may not require a sim card ...
[HD2 General] SiL3nTKiLL:
rly? i never thought verizon would use sim cards...can we bring non verizon phones them from lets say ATT to their network?
[HD2 General] d0ug:
Verizon has SIM cards for their GSM/CDMA world phones. Sprint also has world edition blackberries with a SIM card. The SIM card is there so the phone is able to roam onto a GSM network outside of the USA. As far as I know this SIM card will not allow it to roam onto a USA GSM network, since there are no roaming agreements in place between VZ and ATT/TMO

The WCDMA on the HD2 is not the same as CDMA that VZ/Sprint use.

WCDMA is the 3G standard that GSM providers use. CDMA is well as far as i know the same old CDMA network that VZ/Sprint have used for ages with whatever "bolt on" enables 3G on their network. I dont follow the CDMA standard so i dont know all the specifics about the tech.

Edit:

I just did a small amount of wikipedia research. What Verizon/Sprint use is CDMA2000/EV-DO

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDMA2000

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution-Data_Optimized

This is not compatible with WCDMA,

Even though they both use "CDMA" family of technology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_division_multiple_access

WCDMA is a wideband version http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WCDMA
[HD2 General] Bullhead00:
Thanks for the replies guys. This is a bummer though. I was really hoping to be able to get an HD2 to use with Verizon. Oh well, guess I'll wait for the Droid X to release, even though I'd like to stick with WiMo.

[XPERIA X1 General] rodrimaul:
friends, I think I found the fault and the solution is very simple,

but bring their sacrifices.

I noticed, after reinstalling the ROM of Energy and the Valkyrie

problem is the RAM.

Both ROM that I testing works fine, but the

problem is that once occupied much of the available storage

on phone, the system becomes slower and begin to appear

the SOD

I tried first with the Valkyrie ROM (x1_firestorm_v6.7.23121LEO-Extender), which only gave me around

170MB of space to install programs. Then, after going down to

100mb, began the issue of SOD.

Then, I tried the ROM of Energy

(Energy.XPERIA.21905.Sense2.5.Cookie.Dinik.Glass.Jun.07) and gave me 250mb

about programs available for use on the computer.

Some applications installed on your computer, to get to 200MB, began

SOD in the ROM

Conclusion:

- By occupying lot of RAM available to install applications, the system

becomes unstable and begins to fail

- The first indication of possible SOD is when the system slows down,

especially the HTC Sense 2.5

Unfortunately the solution to SOD in an already corrupt, is a HARD

RESET, as in Windows Mobile 6.5 is not possible to modify the space

assigned to RAM or installation of applications, as it was in Windows

Mobile 2003.

Hope has been helpful, and remember NOT to install too

or heavy applications in computer memory.

Greetings.

PS: sorry for my poor english :o
[myTouch 3G Slide General] nustherapy:
Hello,

I apologize if I have missed this asked in the forum, or in the phone settings for that matter but is there a way to disable the notification sound on the phone. I seem to be getting notifications whenever it connects/disconnects my wifi or whenever it changes service from GPRS / Edge / 3G.... at least I believe this is whats causing the notifications as there is nothing noted in the notification bar. I have disabled the notification for "Network Notification" however this just means I don't get notified about open networks in the area.. it still notifies me when my home wifi connects.

Other than that I'm loving the phone! I was rocking a G1 with a Cyanogen ROM which was great but was looking for something to be a bit more snappy... I will say i've been very surprised at how snappy this is.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] i0nicx:
if you go under the 'mobile networks' area under 'wireless & networks', there is an option to play a sound when you go into roaming. also under the wifi settings there is a check box for a notification when an open network is available.

check that out, should solve the issue
[myTouch 3G Slide General] nustherapy:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
Is it a state when there is nothing you can do (software-ly) to power-up your N1 no matter what?

So, if that's happened, what is solution for that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
Thats really vague. There is a method somewhere where you take the battery out and plug it in to the wall charger then instert battery to turn it on, which would be a troubleshooting method of whether your Power button is broken.

Definition of a brick is:

No fastboot

No recovery

No other screen than the original first Nexus One splash screen.

If your device will not power on at all:

What did you do to make this happen

Sounds like a hardware issue if it will not power on at all, ie, you can't see ANYTHING ON THE DISPLAY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO POWER IT ON.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohandhruva:
A bricked phone is in a state where you can't do ANYTHING, from software or hardware, to recover the phone. It will just be stuck on the X logo which appears on bootup. There is no solution for it, hence the word "brick".

In general, N-1 is very resistant to bricking - it only happens if you pull out the battery when flashing the radio or something..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
Thanks for sharing. So, is it any ways to unbrick the N1? Do we just throw it to the trash can?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohandhruva:
By the very definition, "brick" is something that we can't recover from. If it were recoverable, it's not a brick ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
Okay, i got that. But i'm wondering, what if brick happened to you. Will you throw the device to trash can? Or send it to repair center maybe so they will fix it. My question is, if they can fix it, how?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohandhruva:
HTC can fix the device, but it won't be under the warranty. I am guessing they have hardware to actually flash the radio (and other), and don't need to depend on fastboot like we do.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSigler:
To be crass, it basically means that you're ****ed.

Nearly any issue can be fixed as long as you can load fastboot or ADB. From there you can reflash the recovery image, format the phone, and start over. If you can't load ADB or Fastboot and it won't boot normally, it's effectively "a brick", only useful in it's physical ability to take up space. A paperweight.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MSigler:
Send it back to HTC and they will replace the SOC, for a price.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
OP, I doubt its bricked. Its very difficult to brick the N1, like another poster said you'd have to interrupt the radio flashing process.

Explain to us what happened

Explain to us what happens when you power it on.

You only have 32 posts, I am quite certain there are other options than throwing it in the trash.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
Heheh... No, i'm not bricking my N1. I'm just curious what exactly Brick mean is.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] razvan11malancus:
First of all Hi to everyone. I have a problem with the latest build (the one from 13.06 - i believe it is the latest). This is the first time I install Android on TP2. I also installed Android on Touch Diamond but there I had no problems.

Now I will line up my problems:

1. I get the splash screen for 30 or more minutes - it is resolved now after deleting data.img and restarting.

2. I do not have network signal (I am on Orange), wi-fi or sound. If you can tell me what is wrong it would be of great help for me.

Thanks a lot guys.

Sorry if I posted wrong here, I am kind of new to this forum.

Me again. So I read on the forum about the second problem. The sound (in speaker) still does not work in this build. Regarding the network signal i had an extra line in my startup.txt (force cdma). After I removed it everything went fine. About the wi-fi problem it seem to be a WEP encryption issue.

Sorry again for starting a new post, maybe someone will find it usefull after all.
