You might have loosened the cable, or the cable might be damaged. I've dropped my Wizard once, and this happened. Turns out the cable got loose.

The Kaiser has a cable inside, that moves when you open and close the keyboard. This cable can also easily wear out, or accidentally pulled.

I pulled this image from Kaiser Service manual PDF. You can easily see the connector and cable for the front. As you can see, it's pretty easy to loosen the connector from an accidental drop. BTW, Kaiser Service Manual will tell you step by step in how to take apart the Kaiser. You will need a Torx screw driver T5 and T6, not to forget one extremely small Philips screw driver.

Just reconnect the cable. I recommend getting contact cleaner to lube and clean it first. You can pick up one of these at your local radio shack. Wonderful stuff. Good idea to spray every connector you come across.

Also, if you damaged any of the plastic (like I did) you can repair it easily with a soldering pen, and extra broken plastic lying around. I dropped my Kaiser once, and chipped off a piece of plastic. Nothing wrong with the phone, but cosmetically it annoyed me. Easily took it apart and repaired it with my soldering iron, and some extra pieces of black broke plastic. Just remember the front bezel (where the screen is) isn't plastic, but metal. The center and back is made out of plastic, that btw melts easily to a soldering iron.

Here's an example of some guy repairing a bike doing this. Do it right, and it's strong. Do it wrong, and it'll break easily under stress.

Yesterday I disassembled my Kaiser, and cheched all the cables, but it didn't work. Still the same issues.

So I want to know if there is a way via software thru android to get in to the tricolor screen.

I am using kallt kaffe's nbh and eclair.

Thanks!

no not with android sorry.

if you know how to solder, try resoldering the leads for the camera button.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
If the cable wasn't the reason, then you may have to take apart the front screen itself. The front screen is a mess of connections, so you may wanna check them.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MrRulas!:
I went the whole way dismembering the Kaiser. Cleaned all the connections, and checked all were in place.

Still no luck.

I believe something went really wrong in the motherboard in the last drop.

It´s a shame 'cause this is a very nice piece of hardware and have been with me for the last 3 years.

Maybe its time to use the AmEx and get a Nexus One.

Thank you guys for all the help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
Just a note on this, if the keypad or dpad were the only things with issues, I'd have suspected the main flex also, however as the camera button is firmly fixed to the mainboard, then the damage must have been more serious.

Afraid it might take a lot of serious disassembly and probably a few hours with a microscope to find any fractured connections, which is the usual type of damage after heavy impact. Also the connector for the main flex and the camera button are both on the same side of the mainboard.

I feel your pain, it's one thing to honourably retire a device for an upgrade, but losing one in action is a different thing altogether :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MrRulas!:
Thank you guys for your help. As we speak I am unboxing mi new x10.

If anyone thinks my old kaiser could be used as a spare parts, i can send it for free, just you pay the shipping fee.

THANKS A LOT. I am moving to the X10 xda forum

Hey, I'm experiencing the same issue. I can boot to android, but nothing I do will get to the bootloader. Zenity tried to help also (thanks!)

I've got a HD2 for me with WM and 2.2, this is for the boyfriend (his first android).
[Windows Mobile] tidus18:
Dear Members,

It was bit frustrating that my office exchange email uses a wildcard certificate for validation. As we all know, the newer builds of WM does not allow connections using wildcard certs. So i was not able to configure my push email on my device when i used custom roms

(Ref: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc182301.aspx)

However, i noticed that stock roms (i used 1.66, My device is Leo, SEA region) allow sync using wildcard certs (there will be a warning on initial sync, but syncs fine after that)

So, I flashed a stock rom, configured my activesync. Finally I extract all relevant entries from below registry keys:

Note: To make life easier, after flashing stock rom, do a registry dump (before and after) using CeReg to PC. Then use compare in CeReg and export the regs into file.

I have put the reg settings as ext package and cooked it in. It syncs fine without warning. The prob is, now i am unable to select or change the additional folders to sync with. Would cooking in as ext mess up the ability to select Menu - Tools - Manage Folders... ?

Anyways, im posting this info here as i searched highs and lows on getting activesync to work with wildcard certs and found no solution. Im hoping someone out there with same problem could advice if there are any better solution or my somewhat usable solution may be helpful others as this does get the pushmail working. My solution syncs inbox just fine (only cant select additional folders to sync).

Any suggestions/ideas are most welcome.:confused:

Solution/Work around the problem is in post 1 to 3.

My current ROM info: SYS 21903 / Base TMOUS 2.13 / Manila 2.5.20121412.2
[Windows Mobile] tidus18:
Well, about not being able to select the "Manage folders", i found a way around the prob:

1. Under active sync partnership - Option and uncheck the "Mail". It will ward about deleting the mails on device. Just choose OK.

2. Reboot device.

3. Similar to step 1, enable mail back. Upon sync, you will be able to select the manage folders option.

Apparently to get the list of folders, we need the synckey to be 0 in the request sent to server. I do not understand nor know how to make the device send synckey as 0. So, this temp solution works for me.

anyone with better solution? Guess next step is to find out whick key in reg exactly enables to bypass the wildcard certificate restriction.

Reference: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/openspecification/archive/2010/04/24/activesync-iii.aspx
[Windows Mobile] tidus18:
Solved

Upon further experimentation, i discovered that active sync does not create any registry entries until first successful sync.

So, this lead t only 1 conclusion - We need to create the reg entry our self and merge it to registry during cooking process/cab/etc. Then, do as described in post #2.

Anyone with wildcard cert prob, and do not understand what im talking about here may drop me a PM and i'll provide with further details as im sure very very few of us are having this sort of problem!

I'm changing the title to SOLVED/FYI as i successfully cooked my exchange email settings and synced without prob.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tizoc:
So I decided to fumble around a bit with my incredible, I read about the hosts file for blocking ads here and noticed that I would get permission denied errors, then when i had the phone with the screen on, did adb shell from a command prompt I got the super user permissions screen on my device.

now I was able to run the mount commands successfully, and as far as testing I was able to do mv /etc/hosts /etc/oldmaid and it took. however when I try to mv the other hosts file i get an error about a cross linked device. so i try doing a cat /sdcard/hosts.for.mobile.txt > /etc/hosts and get an error about the device not having sufficient space.

Anyone have any input on this? I know a cooked rom will already have this hosts file in it, but i'm trying to see if i can't get it going now.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kulaa:
I do not have one yet but what commands are available? Can you "locate hosts" or "find / -name hosts"

nm try this file "/system/etc/hosts" <-- stated in xda forums 3772987&postcount=5 Hope this is what you were looking for.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ihtfp69:
You are getting that error due to the fact that nand protection is still enabled. We need to flash a boot image with ro.secure=0 to be able to write to everything in /system.

***WELCOME***​

Welcome everyone who has a question, but just can't seem to find an answer. My hope is that this thread will reduced the extremely large number of new threads being created for every little issue each user is having. The rules are very simple. Please follow them, as it's just not that hard.

1) Absolutely NO FLAMING. I am completely inflexible on this rule. If i catch you do it, you will get an xda vacation (will be banned, in case you don't get it). Also, just to be clear, "use the search function" is not an acceptable answer in this thread.

2) Before you post you MUST read THIS. Trust me, I will know if you didn't.

3) Anyone can post any issue they're having with their HTC Espresso: myTouch 3G Slide in this thread, but you MUST include a detailed description of your issue. If after a couple days your issue has not been addressed, please feel free to bump it.

4) Remember you are asking for help, and as the saying goes "it's easier to catch flies with honey than vinegar. So be nice to those who are helping you.

5) Please quote the person you are replying to, it will make it MUCH easier for people to sort through the many messages that will end up in here.

6) If you find your Question answered, find your original Post and change the font colour of the text into dark green. And at the bottom of the question post either provide a link to the answer or Quote the answer,

This way it can be easier for any moderator to delete Clutter so the thread can be easily searched and read by other users.​

This is an experiment based on a suggestion by other users, so we will see how it goes. If all goes well then i hope that this thread will be a great help to many new members. If not then we will make adjustments. I want to thank all those who will be contributing to this forum for their time in advance.

Note: If you feel your thread has been moved here in error, please PM me and politely ask me to move the related posts back into the original thread. Sometimes the wrong threads get moved here by accident. Please also provide a clear explanation of why you think this topic deserves it's own thread. Angry tirades and rants will be of no use, and will more likely than not simply get you a warning or a ban.

Wifi Tether, apps to sd, froyo 2.2?

So now that root has happened I know a lot of us are interested in added functionality of our devices. So far mine is stock but with live wallpapers and some free'd up memory. However, I'd like to use wifi tether, apps to sd, and preferably get froyo 2.2 on here. My question is do we have a lot of devs working toward this now or is it too soon after root? I don't mean to seem impatient here and I understand there is still a lot of focus on getting everyone to the point of root since it was difficult for most of us. Anyway, any status update or something would be nice.

Not sure if this is a dumb question... When the G1 was rooter, shortly after other methods of rooting were found. I fear some of us will endlessly have the problem of getting ADB to recognize the device in recovery. What are the chances of another root method coming available for the Slide?

if an update comes out, there will be more methods im sure... just not sure on a timeline for them

Fermunky, I've been following your problem because I was having it too. What finally got it for me was, I formated a different sd card, put it in the phone, removed all software ( htc sync, pdanet) and removed all drivers I could find using usbdeview. Then rebooted with phone unplugged, installed pdanet following all their instructions, then the loop worked perfect. Good luck

Tl;dr version, i tried it all at the same time and it worked

Widgets

hey, is it possible for someone to make some of the htc widgets compatible with adw launcher? I have the slidemeroot rom with live wallpapers and like it a lot. However, I miss the variety of widgets such as multiple calendar views now that I have to run adw launcher to get the live wallpapers. I'm looking for a way to get the best of both worlds and have live wallpapers along with the sense widgets. Is it possible? or better yet, get live wallpapers on stock rom without adw launcher so it works with my modes as well (cuz I miss that too). Maybe I just need to give up on the live wallpapers :(

Stock Apps

Is there a way to remove the annoying bloatware stock apps (Faves, Peep, etc.) without rooting? I'm afraid that I'll void my warranty if I root. And I actually paid the full 400 dollars or something for this without a contract, so I'd like to keep my warranty.

Also, it's really dumb that rooting/flashing ROMs voids the extended warranty. The entire purpose of Android is to be modified and customized. That's why it's open source. >_>
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] rgbmode:
IN the sdcard there is the video I beleive that is showing up.

I would just delete that.

Or search in settings for a setting that may be turning it on.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] rlacsamana1989:
Even if you root, you can set your phone back to stock for warranty purposes. I have yet to see issues with bricking phones as we have yet to get a HSPL.

So root your device and flash away :) that is if you feel comfortable and if you have never rooted a device check out the links in my sig for help.

Clockwork recovery problems

I've made it to clockwork recovery twice. Once I get there and reboot, i don't have superuser.apk installed and when i reboot to recovery, to goes to the regular recovery again.

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Edit: i understand now that the spl isn't going to stick( from other posts), but what do i need to do to have superuser installed?

Sorry if this is obvious.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ButteredToast:
I've finally managed to root my Slide, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get back into Clockworkmod Recovery to install ROMs.

I've gotten into it twice but now I can't even to get my device to be recognized while in stock recovery, not as Offline or as Recovery. Do I have to go through the whole loop thing again as before? Because when I try the loop I run into the problem of it saying offline for a few seconds then disappearing like previously before I rooted my phone. I can't do "adb push ota.zip /sdcard update.zip" because it tells me no devices are connected.

Thanks for any help!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Oakley44:
Just an idea to make it relatively easy. 1. make sure you have the update.zip file on the "c:/" (root) directory your sdcard that IS the Clockwork Recovery file. 2. Turn the phone one. 3. let it load, go to Market, install quickboot. 4. Once in quickboot click on reboot recovery 5. Hit volume up and power to get into Clockwork Recovery...once you have installed other Rom zip files on your sdcard you can install them from here...hopefully that works. Good luck.

isnt there a way just to use the rom manager app to flash the recovery....i installed the app but the mytouch doesnt come up in the phone models...can i choose another model like the aria???
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ryanolson7:
make sure that your ext partition is mounted before you try to wipe it in recovery, this might help you out (look in advanced --in recovery-- for mounting)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ryanolson7:
What i would suggest is to follow the directions here to flash the ENG build http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=703076

this allows us to get into clockwork recovery without having to do the whole spoofing OTA trick. once you flash the eng build (which we just need the recovery from) you can flash whatever rom you feel like using.

Once you have the eng build, have the clockwork update.zip on your sdcard, then when you want to go to clockwork recovery you just have to go to the stock recovery and click 'apply update.zip' and voila you're in.

hope this helps
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ryanolson7:
To the best of my knowledge, I'm pretty sure Rom Manager will only work once we are able to have Clockwork recovery set as the recovery.. right now it won't stick
