they still arent gonna do anything
[EVO 4G General] bnapy:
I'd beg to differ, I was one of many who were suckered in to buying an Instinct. It was probably the most hyped, worst phone ever (iphone killer?). They made a number of updates for several months after release. I'm sure we'll see a few fixes.
[EVO 4G General] Kiraly:
What's wrong with the WiFi? I use mine all day, every day.

@op: Who's unhappy?

Every time a new phone comes out there is always a small group exclaiming loudly about how this or that needs to be fixed or it's a dealbreaker. Honestly, if someone had not reported the video cap 99% of users would never have noticed. All electronics have issues and won't be perfect. For those of you expecting everything that you buy to be perfect, I suggest you wake up and smell the coffee. It's not gonna happen. Go ahead a do a Google search. Every major phone release, from iPhones to Droids to WinMos to WebOSes, have all had issues. No amount of belly-aching from anyone is going fix it. It's just the nature of manufacturing.

Any ****ing user can tell. Put an iphone and a htc evo 4g next to each other. Start scrolling on the home page, in a web browser... they will all think the iPhone is faster.

Oh good god please don't bring up that phone!
[EVO 4G General] toenail78:
the cap thing does suck but bottom line is this is the best phone i have ever had.. having a fps cap isnt enough to get me to return my phone, i was happy with my phone before i heard of the cap so im not going to change how i feel about it now.. when i read all of the comments about ppl returning their phone because of the cap i honestly think they are returning it for other reasons and just using the cap as an excuse cause honestly i cant think of a better phone that sprint has at the moment... i read someone was claiming to boycott htc is they didnt fix that cap, that comment made me laugh!
[EVO 4G General] Kiraly:
Awesome, since you already know what any ****ing user will think, they won't have to bother themselves with deciding on a phone. They can just let you tell them what they will like.

Go buy an iPhone if you think it's so much better. o_O

Thanks for links....I guess my point was that WiFi works. People are complaining, but for most, WiFi works just fine. I use mine all over my house and my router is in my basement. I even get a connection outside my house. My signal bars don't show me a thing but it's still connected and fast. Some may have WiFi issues but they aren't Toyota recall type issues.

Is that possible?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgorman:
Do you mean you want to keep the phone on 3G/3.5G only? Why would you need to turn off GPRS?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
Yes.

Because sometime my connection is switching between H and G themself. When that happens the download will be interrupted.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgorman:
Hmm that's weird. The phone shouldn't switch from H to G. It would go H then 3G then E and then finally G. But to lock the phone in 3G only type *#*# 4636#*#* and then hit phone information and then scroll down to where it says preferred network type and choose WCDMA only. That will prevent the phone from switching out of 3G but if you leave 3G coverage you'll lose data connection because it won't drop to E or G
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1k3m1k3:
thanks!!!! :))
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blundell:
Hey good thread info.

But I was wondering,

How can I turn on 2G (GPRS) so I only have Edge or 3G or WIFI

The reason for this is, when on GPRS browsing it doesn't allow calls though to my Nexus One.

Anyone do you know the command? to turn off GPRS and leave ALL other's on please

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grimlockd:
Yes I'm a noob. I tried searching for my answer but I came across nothing. So here goes. Two parter.

What is flashing the kernel? I understand it involves cpu clock speed and battery life. Is it something I would want to do? How do you do it? Where do you find kernels to flash your phone with? Can you mix a kernel with a ROM of your choice and if so, what's a good combination?

I'm still trying to figure out how to switch between ROMs in the most easiest and hassle free way possible, but that has escaped me. What I do is load the bootloader and wipe then flash the new ROM. Then I gotta recover my apps & data with Titanium Backup (Usually half the data is missing). Can I just use the Nand backup to switch? Should I use a completely different backup tool for each ROM I like to use?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sindroid:
Try if you like.. Combine any kernel as as long as it is built for the Rom you want.

Undervolted kernels do improves batterylife. But it is up to you to find your own combination. Try Pershoot and IntersectRaven's kernels to start with.

You flash kernels with Amon_RA's recovery or other tool just like you flash ROM's.

If the Kernel don't work for you just nandroid or try other kernels.

Like to try a rom, but read AT&T required rooting in order to flash. Can this be confirmed?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcp2009:
If you mean custom ROMs then yea any custom rom requires root. Doesn't matter if it's at&t or t-mobile
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
Are you referring to updating your AT&T to Froyo, if so, you have asked the wrong question and will receive the wrong answer.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big_O:
Thought that was the case. Read some posts that said TMO didn't need to root for custom roms, but logic says yes. Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
you are confusing installing froyo, with installing a custom rom
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvengerBB:
I was going to ask a similar question. From what I understand, to get Froyo (FRF72) on my AT&T N1, I need to first put the TMO ROM on it and then can use the update.zip to FRF50 and then the newly released update.zip for FRF72. To get the orginal TMO ROM on it, do I just need to unlock the bootloader or is root also required?

[Desire General] nayajoeun:
After flashing the DeFrost series of ROMS (I am not saying they are the cause of this issue..) from 0.8 to 1.0 ---

I've got an issue where the screen switches itself off during a phone call and never turns on again, unless I pull out the battery and reboot it.

I've just tried flashing Pays BS and RS ROMs and they still to have this issue?

Could it be a problem during flashing just screwed over soomething inside the phone? (Prox. sensor maybe?)

Thanks for your help.

*****EDIT****

I've just found out that if i place the handset (whilst during a call) in very bright sunlight or bright artificial light --- then the screen does re-display.

It's strange however, I'm outside during midday and the screen still is off whilst placing a call. It only registers that the phone is away from my face near a very bright light source.
[Desire General] nayajoeun:
I've found this issue is faced by many people usually after ROOTing their device(s).

A 'USB-Brick' like issue possibly? (Proxy-Brick lol)

I will attempt to hand in my now HBOOT 0.80 ROOT'd desire to Telstra for warranty tomorrow.

I am now pretty sure that this problem is random and occurs when rooting/flashing a cust. ROM through recovery.

Hello,

I have been away from this sort of thing for a long time. I have been looking through the forums, but there is so much information, I can't find what I am looking for.

I have an AT&T Fuze that I am just not happy with the stock OS, and I am hoping to find a good replacement. I like the newest Windows Mobile 6.5, so I hope to find something in that.

I use my phone for calls, Internet, Gmail, Google calendar and Tom Tom. I don't need much else. I have had problems with Opera, so I am prefer to stick with IE, unless there is a Google chrome for mobile? I am open to suggestions. I like to be able to organize my start screen and such as well.

Thanks for any help!

Best RAPHAEL roms, in my opinion.

EnergyROM is VERY GOOD for users of all types! I would recomend this rom to anybody who wants speed, stability, and confidence that there will always be somebody there to cook your rom. NRGZ28, the chef is by far the best chef i know. I say you should try the CHT version! :) Don't tell anybody, but even i use EnergyROM on some of my phones ;)

Hello all,

I got my phone when they first came out on Jan 5th and have just ran into my first issue. It seems that the power button has become really hard to press (like it is lower than it used to be). I have to press down just right to get it to register. I know that others have been having power button issues and was wondering if anyone has ran into this? Any suggestions on actions to take? What were others peoples power button issues?

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lamar720:
Yea, I started to use No lock from the market its free. With this program you can use the trackball to unlock you phone or bring it from sleep mode you will not have to use the power button as often.

Hope this helps
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalhead8816:
Is your button hard to press or just not registering?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lamar720:
Sometimes I would have to push it more then once. So I don't believe its really hard to push but, more so just not registering all the time.

It's not to often I had that problem. but, I did notice you have to use the button alot so I didn't want to wear it down.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pongalong:
Mine used to be like that and then eventually it became extremely hard to press. Practically took 10-15 tries using force to get it to turn on. I sent it back to HTC and now it's more responsive than when I first got it. Took about 4 days total.

It could be just dust under the power button. I just took off the back cover and blew at the space under the power button. It's working every time now. Worth a shot before you send it in anways.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] binaryanomaly:
I have the same issue, hard to press and sometimes not registering at all.

Unfortunately trackball wake is not available for froyo yet. This would be a fine workaround for me.

I was having problems with the power button not working well, but it seems to be much better under the new FRF72 Froyo build.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rori~:
Good idea!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logger:
+1 on the excellent suggestion.

The rear battery cover is integral to the power button assembly. It keeps it aligned on the fore aft axis. So dust and crap therein seems to restrict it at times. If you have power button issues, at very least remove the battery cover to see if releasing the friction it creates improves things. The power button becomes somewhat wobbly and loose with the rear cover off.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knives of ice:
ok i'm going insane here and about to throw this f'ing evo across the room. i've flashed before. now every time when i go to flash a new rom it goes to flash and instead of loading immediately boots me back to the clockwork recovery menu.

first i apply the sd card update. then wipe data and cache. go to install from sd card. choose zip from sd card. i scroll down and see the old rom i want to installl, hit the power button and it just boots me back to the clockwork menu. what the hell is up?

please help with any suggestions or ideas.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] vrs2610:
This is my problem

say A calls me and I couldn't pick up so the phone rings then directs A to my voice mail

so then A calls me again

this time the led would flash, the screen would show that A is calling, but the ringer would not ring.

The ringer on my phone is always on the highest ringer and I tested it out and I am still getting the same results.

Does anyone else has the same issue??
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] wrongfeifong:
That is what exactly happen to me, i don't have a voice box (since roger is expensive)

But i notice if i do miss the first call (being forward or not) the second call will never rings.

As long the second call is the same person as first call.

I think it is a call blocking system so you don't get rings everytime the same person multi-call you within a time frame
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] vrs2610:
ii thanks I thought that I was the only one or something

yeh rogers is bloody expensive, also you any suggestions to fix this

and thanks
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] wrongfeifong:
I suggest you make a super ringtone with max sound. So you don't miss the first call. Or

simply write a android program that calls you back on missing calls.

Outlook has the issue that it converts yearly recurring dates (e. g. birthdays) to happen every 12 years. This happens when syncing your mobile with the calendar of 2 pc (e. g. at home and at work) and you are using Outlook 2003 SP2 or higher at your pc.

Now Microsoft made a hotfix to solve this issue. I´ve tested it and the issue is solved completely!

use the Hotfix or wait for the next Service Pack (MS promised to work the Hotfix into the next SP).

Recovery Reflash Tool

Available for linux, mac, and windows all at once. Also should support Evo, Incredible, and Aria, Eris, and Desire.

First steps:

1. You will need to make sure in windows at least that you have the proper driver for hboot:

http://www.unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php?id=public:windows_hboot_driver_install

2. HTC Sync is BAD news... If you have it, please uninstall if you have issues, or just for spite. It interferes with us communicating to the device randomly, also pdanet, doubletwist etc could cause issues. If it uses USB and you have problems, try disabling/uninstalling until after the reflash is complete.

3. When asked ALWAYS CHOOSE CHARGE ONLY, perhaps you should check remember this...

THE LINK: http://unrevoked.com/recovery/

FAQ: http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked2

Help I'm stuck at waiting for system to settle

check these common issues:

- You switched your driver to the one from this post? It's NOT identical to the SDK one.

- You don't have any usb applications that might be taking focus while we are working with the phone right?

- Is the SD card present in the device?

- You did give su permenent access when you allowed it in superuser right?

Still new to android world. What will this tool actually do ?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shadowmite:
Well it's primarily going to allow users with root to get around the nand lock and flash a custom recovery that will allow custom roms easily. As well as modifying system at will by rebooting to recovery with adb enabled inside it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jonnybueno:
Will /system be rw while booted in android?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shadowmite:
not until our next project completes, a special hboot to enable full nand write. For now we are just enabling it to flash recovery as the next step gets very dangerous.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Bxsteez:
So we will still have to jump through the same hoops to get into recovery mode? I did it once but can't seem to do it again so i have root access but haven't been able to remove all these crappy sys apps.

no, this will flash a custom recovery that ENABLES adb.... so you get it every time.
