Well, here's an idea. Next time you leave dialer, hit home instead of back. This will attempt to keep it in memory, and it seems to stay in memory longer than most other applications.

Running 5.0.8test4 (was superbad until clay took a break) and my dialer opens in about 3 seconds before doing this, and instantly after doing what I said.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jallen3188:
Okay i've trying to root my phone for the lazy week but no success. I got my hero about a month ago, and new 2.1 update had just came out so i updated it to 2.1 eclair, but after i realized i could root my phone and have more access to things on the phone than just the 2.1 i wanted to root it. i've looked all over the internet trying to do so, and i finally got here to xda developers and i fouldn a walkthrough to do so but when i get to the part where it says "unrevoked" in the commant prompt, i get suck! i try to type in "su" and it says "permission denied" i would really like to get some help! please!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jallen3188:
the software number does end in .6, can i still download that RUU and downgrade? is that what u mean?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heresy_fnord:
Yes. The version in the second post on that link is what you have to install before you can root. Your version is .6 (currently unrootable) and the version on that second post is .5. What it will do is reinstall your stock sprint ROM to version .5 and then you can root the phone.

I have a hero and that's exactly what I did to get mine to work.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chaid:
As far as I know, if you download the RUU supplied by Regaw and run it, you will have software ending in .5 and able to root.

Personally, I have not tried it, but he has...and so have others.

So give it a shot.....can't hurt =)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jallen3188:
awesome, thanks

[HD2 General] Mysticales:
Hey.. been trying to see about using the GPS to locate me.. I used the test program and it just stays on yellow "Gps starting up" and other apps I have like a gps radar for weather never locks on... just goes by cell tower or wifi signal to locate me. Kinda odd so not quite sure how on the Energy rom how GPS is working and how I can test it? Its just odd that my G1 locks on but my HD2 isnt? Thanks.

Edit.. also a odd note... GPS I think is working.. but ONLY if I have the "Phone" turned on. Like for Cell phone signal. Normally I dont have the network turned on since I use it more as a pocket pc. But does the cell network need to be turned on for gps to work..? Again thats why im asking for a real way to test.

Another thing.. Weatherbug not getting a gps fix ever...
[HD2 General] Rhodium500:
My guess is that agps needs to be disabled.
[HD2 General] Mysticales:
Well after I did the quick gps thing and downloaded the info... more things came up which is good... least its showing me its tracking something. Weatherbug still not doing anything tho.
[HD2 General] M3PH:
go to: settings, menu, all settings, system, external gps. Set a com port in every tab that asks. In google maps set it to let windows configure gps and then reset the phone (just to be sure the com ports are started). After this once the phone has locked on to some satellites you can disable quickgps (only accurate to 3000 metres not 20) and the gps will be "always on"
[HD2 General] Mysticales:
Ok that did something more at least. Weatherbug found something, least 1 when I turned programs to none and hardware to port 4. (Cant use same port for both programs and hardware gps, thoughts?)

Edit: Nm I see you said already set "a" comport not the same one lol. Ok lets see what that does. =)

Edit 2: Ok well I know the GPS is working cause it picks up on my weather radar and the test tool that it gets a signal from some. Which is good. Tho why I cant get weatherbug working right.. I dont know.
[HD2 General] Mysticales:
New question.. how come the Hardware GPS port doesnt save? I have software one on Com4 but when I try to pick one for hardware and OK out. I go back in and it says "none" again. Is that normal?
[EVO 4G General] jdickerman76:
I have reloaded the stock RUU back onto my phone with no issues, but when I try to flash PC36IMG.zip I get stuck. I have downloaded the file several times using multiple browsers and have even downloaded it using my phone and placed it in the root of the sd card with the same result. Here is the log that is generated when trying to load the image:

SD Checking...

Loading...[PC36DIAG.zip]

No image!

Loading...[PC36DIAG.nbh]

No image or wrong image!

Loading...[PC36IMG.zip]

No image!

Loading...[PC36.IMG.nbh]

No image or wrong image!

There may have been more lines but the only way I could get this log was to try to snap a picture of it because it only shows for about a second. I have noticed that several people are having the same issue and thought it would be nice to have a thread started to find a solution or determine if we are doing something wrong. Attached is a screenshot of the error.

Update: Reformating the card fixed the issue!
[EVO 4G General] snandlal:
Use a different micro sd card, re-download on the new card
[EVO 4G General] jdickerman76:
I am not using the original 8GB card, I am using a 16GB card but good suggestion I will try that. I hope it is that simple.
[EVO 4G General] th3b055:
Format your SD card to FAT32 :)
[EVO 4G General] jdickerman76:
It is currently using FAT32 already but I am going to try a reformat and see what happens, will post results soon.
[EVO 4G General] crpercodani:
It's the card. I had the exact same problem using a 1gb card and ended up having to use the card from my Droid. I'm not sure why it happens though, I thought it was because hboot needed a sdhc card but your using one so I dunno.
[EVO 4G General] jdickerman76:
Thanks a lot a reformat of the SD card did the trick! I have been trying everything and that worked!!! Im happy now :)
[EVO 4G General] smarcin:
I had this problem too. I tried re-downloading the file, formatting the card in my Evo, formatting it with the sd card formatting app in Windows. Nothing fixed it. I FINALLY booted my netbook into Ubuntu (Linux) and formatted from Gparted (FAT32). That did it. So, if you have a Linux box available, try that. Or a live Linux CD/DVD would work too.
[EVO 4G General] acenick3:
Same problem i formatted my card and it still doesnt work for me any advise?
[EVO 4G General] jdickerman76:
If you have access to a different MicroSD card I would try that, I can confirm that it is definitely a problem with the card though. One other suggestion is using Linux disk management program I heard one person say windows could not format it properly then used Linux and the card worked fine afterwards.
[EVO 4G General] acenick3:
thanks jdickerman ill give it a try and post results soon
[EVO 4G General] acenick3:
nope tried everything formatting the card and i got a new 4gb sd card and still the same problem
[EVO 4G General] SamelCamel:
I had this same problem.

With Windows 7 machine, I formatted the stock 8GB microSD with Fat32(default) with 4096bytes. I used a "quick format" and then a copy and paste to move the PC63IMG.zip file to the card.

This worked for me.

-Sam
[EVO 4G General] pyro55:
I am having the same problem - I've tried formatting using windows and now linux and still get the same results.

No image and No image or wrong image.

I also get a message saying - update failed Main version is older!

no matter what I've tried the results are always the same. Suggestions?
[EVO 4G General] MedSchool26:
I - sort of - have the same problem.

When it hits "PC36DIAG.zip" it says "No image!"

when it gets to "PC36IMG.zip" though - it starts updating Boot/Bootloader/MICROP/etc etc

Am I missing something from the PC36DIAG.zip? Phone works fine...
[EVO 4G General] fiscap:
Make sure the .zip is not corrupt by trying to extract it on your PC first.

I had this same error and noticed the file was corrupt when I tried to extract in on my notebook. I re-downloaded the file, copied it to the SD and all is well.
[EVO 4G General] loperator:
Remove the .zip on the file name. I had the same problem because I named the file PC36IMG.zip it already is a zip file so just name it PC36IMG. This worked for me. Goodluck!
[EVO 4G General] killakarl:
will this get rid of these messages and still keep root??

i need to return my phone for i have the light leakage, and it is getting worse.
[EVO 4G General] android_enthusiast:
same problem

I am at my wits end. I have tried everything that has been suggested in this thread. When I try to update the radio in my HTC incredible, I get the message "no image or wrong image". It is weird because when the bootloader reaches the "ZIP" stage, it looks like it installs the software. I see a status bar on the right side of the screen. But then when I reboot, I have the same version of the radio.

I have reformatted the SD card twice now (both times using different FAT32 options). I have verified that the MD5 signature of the ZIP file is correct. I have made sure that I download the file directly to the phone and not copy it over the USB cable. Nothing works. I always have the same result.

This is really bothering me, because when I update to one of the modified ROMs, everything except my GPS functionality works. According to another thread, my problem is that I am using version 1.00xxx of the radio software. But nothing I do allows me to install the update.

The only thing I have not tried is reformatting using Linux. But I have very little confidence that will work, and given the amount of work it would take to install Linux...I am hoping there is another option. Other people in this forum seem to have been successful reformatting the SD card using windows.

Thanks for any pointers!

SlideIT

I've tried Swype, SlideIT, & ShapeWriter on the Vogue 240x320.

SlideIT and Shapewriter are the only ones that work with 240x320. They work great, there's a new version out today. It finally doesn't look ugly, very functional, I haven't had any issues.

mobiletextinput.com/Product/SlideIT/Android/download.php

(I can't post links, sorry it's not click-able)

Correction: As my2sense has informed us, ShapeWriter does work and it's amazing. I couldn't find it on the Market though, had to find it by other means.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jin5:
WOW slideIT does work really well!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] my2sense:
I know that Shapewriter works on 240x320 since that's what I'm using now. I played around with SlideIT and didn't really liked it but I can't remember why now, lol. It was a few months ago so I might have give SlideIT another try.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Naemion:
i can't seem to get this working. It installs and everything works fine, except when I go to "swype" something the tracer is there, but it just beeps at me. It works just fine tapping the letters, but nothing more than that.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lunigma:
I stand corrected. When I tried Shapewriter previously it didn't quit fit, I figured it was a resolution thing, I must have gotten the wrong version of something. Shapewriter is amazing, much better than SlideIT.

Nice to see we have two available options now.

I've fixed my post
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Naemion:
Shapewriter does not show up in my market... I'm running 480 btw
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lunigma:
I didn't see it on the market either. I don't think I can post a link to where I got it on here.

Hi to All,

I have recently bought new Xperia X1 for my girlfriend and I was convinced that it will allowed me to control data connection similar to the HTC Touch Pro 2 (and what I hate about Android - there is no way to control data connection and phone is permanently connected)- when I push disconnect hardware button it disconnects data connection what is great to save the battery.

Well the initial guides were all missig various steps mentioned in replies.

What i did was simply first:

1. unistall all previous drivers ( actually made a temporary account on my pc)

2. enable usb debugging

3.install PdaNet

4. Just in case, its not working check in Device manager if there is somthing called "adb" if there is, right click on it and select to update the driver and it should automatically do it!

[EVO 4G Android Development] theillustratedlife:
To fully root your EVO, you must apply a couple of updates over the top of your current installation. They will completely erase your user data.

To backup your files before rooting:

- Plug in your phone to your computer

- Make sure you have adb installed.

- Download the unrEVOked userland root.

- Open a terminal and cd into your downloads folder (e.g. cd ~/Downloads)

- Type the following:

adb install unrevoked.apk
adb shell
su

-- Look at your phone screen. Superuser Permissions is asking you if terminal has
permission to become root. Click allow. --

mkdir /sdcard/backup/
busybox cp -R /data /sdcard/backup/data

This will place a full copy of your userdata partition on your sdcard. To restore files back to your userdata partition after the root, simply use

busybox cp

to move them back. If your new ROM didn't include busybox, download and install it:

adb push busybox /system/bin/busybox
adb shell
chmod 755 /system/bin/busybox

I haven't tried copying all my userdata from the sdcard back to the data partition. I've simply used this method to backup and restore files I really didn't want to lose (like my bike calculator logs). I don't know if you could circumvent the wipe by copying your whole data backup back to the data partition after rooting. If you'd like to try and find out, please leave your results in the comments.
[EVO 4G Android Development] theillustratedlife:
I've noticed that the files I've restored from my sdcard back to /data/data have root permissions. In Android, each app gets its own user account that has permissions to its data. If you don't fix the permissions, your apps won't be able to save their data. I don't know how to lookup which app gets which user account, but once you figure it out, you can do this:

cd /data/data/com.myapp
chown app_83.app_83 ./*

where myapp and app_83 are replaced with the values you are changing. joeykrim has posted a link which may help you do this automatically (fix_permissions.sh) in his thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
i never got that far, w/o restoring the correct permissions the apps won't load and puts android into a continuous boot loop and it will keep trying to load the apps but the permissions wont match.

i think the permissions are kept in /data/system/packages.xml ...

switched hosting providers, this link got lost in the shuffle. its http://www.joeyconway.me/evo/apps/fix_permissions.sh . updated my post. thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] theillustratedlife:
Interesting. I've only used this trick to restore data selectively. I haven't tried moving the whole backup back into my /data partition.

Thanks for the heads up.

You are basically asking some "magic (app)" so that T mobile doesn't recognize the actual dash. Not recognizing other phone will avoid paying more for your plan right?
