[EVO 4G Accessories] wase4711:
try a different size, and try using your left ear..

I use my left ear most of the time
[EVO 4G Accessories] gottria:
OK, using the Jabra ear jels won't it cause the Icon nub thing to sit off your skin so effecting call quality? I drive a moving truck 3 days a week and so far the Motorola H17txt has sounded the best at highway speeds in my truck, it's a 16ft panel van that is very noisey inside. People say the I sound OK with the Icon but with the H17txt is a lot clearer.
[EVO 4G Accessories] wase4711:
The theory is that the Jabra gel keeps the headset "locked" into your ear canal better than the included ear pieces, which should translate into better sound for you and your conversation buddies.

Whether it works for you or not can only be determined by trying it!

The eargels are only 5 or 6 bucks on ebay, so its not a big risk to try it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Vandam500:
Just figured it out!! They fit perfectly now!!! Thanks:)
[EVO 4G Accessories] shortbus182:
I ordered the umbo buds off amazon. I got two, one for my wife, but she didn't like it. They work well with the icon, but I have an extra and am interested in the jabras. Trade anyone?;)
[EVO 4G Accessories] Vandam500:
Hmm for some reason those look extremely uncomfortable?
[EVO 4G Accessories] shortbus182:
After 2 days wearing it, it is much better than the one that came with the icon. Much more comfortable, and much louder. I cant compare it to the jabra, as I have never tried one. The only issue I have come across, is if not placed correctly, the jawbone sensor does not contact the face, but this is easily fixed by slightly rotating headset.
[EVO 4G Accessories] wase4711:
what size jabras do you need?

I could trade a set of mediums, if that would work.

What size are the umbos?
[EVO 4G Accessories] misterctw:
I recently purchased the Jabra earbuds after reading this thread. I didn't like the loose fit at all. I used to used a motorola H17 prior to the jawbone. I found one of the ear buds from it and it fits perfect on the jawbone! Much much more comfortable! Check them out

[EVO 4G Accessories] phillysdon04:
I just bought the Jawbone Icon today and it works great. I had the Scala 500 & Scala 700 before getting the Jawbone Icon.

Pros: Uses mini usb like the Evo, Sound is great, Customizable with apps

Cons: Earpiece has to be adjusted frequently.

[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
I'm trying to decide between a motorola h730 and jawbone icon for around $50. I had the Jawbone Era but that was too pricey at $130. I've had various plantronics models in the past, but they're too quiet for me.

[Desire General] ljesh:
According to my "about phone", phone identity, model number, my device model is A8181.

As far as I know, there is A8381 (or something like that too).

Can someone share what is the difference between this two models?

Thanks.
[Desire General] JTHM:
I think it's to do with differentiating between hardware versions. Different markets have different standards, i.e. the US and Japan use a different UTMS frequency for maobile data to the ROW thus might need a slightly different hardware version for full compatibility. Or, there may be a slightly different hardware versions over the life of a product which may come about through the guise of "continuous product improvement".
[Desire General] foxmeister:
The A8181 and A8183 are essentially identical, except for the radio bands that they support 3G on. For the most part, if you are on Telstra in Australia, Rogers in Canada, or AT&T in the US, you need an A8183 otherwise you need an A8181.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] ljesh:
Thanks alot for clearing this up for me :)
[Desire General] TrevvyD:
8181 in Australia

I,m in Australia, my desire is a 8181, seems to work like a dream, if the other version is better for Australia then I,d like to know more
[Desire General] foxmeister:
I believe you only need the A8183 in Australia if you want to use the phone on Telstra.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] mynameisnotjames:
Hi,

I have tried searching the forums but I can't seem to find whether the custom ROMs will work with A8181 or A8183.

Thanks!
[Desire General] Stewge:
I've flashed DeFrost and OpenDesire and I'm having no problems (got an A8183).

As for the difference between the A8181 and A8183, does anybody know if there's a physical hardware difference between the two?

If it's just a software problem, theoretically, couldn't the radio rom be hacked to use all 3 bands?
[Desire General] omniwolf:
it's hardware
[Desire General] cr1960:
Both work fine in Australia on any carrier.

The A8181 works on the 2100mhz frequency which all AUS carriers work on (yes - even Telstra).

The A8183 works on the 850mhz frequency, which is the Telstra NextG frequency, so either model will work on Telstra.

Main advantages of NextG (as claimed by Telstra) are faster data speeds and better coverage compared to 2100mhz.

So, A8181 for 3g and A8183 for NextG.

ROMs arent model specific, however with radio upgrades you may find some suit your carrier/area better than others.
[Desire General] Whiterin:
I am using a Telstra Desire with an Optus sim and it works fine. I still get H for connection and it's pretty fast internet. When I have full coverage webpages load in just a second or so, and it's more then fast enough to stream movies and music.
[Desire General] jasonshieh0405:
okay, so i've got a newbie question to ask.....mine's A8181, and im in toronto using Rogers, but so far i've been using wifi only, no 3G data plan for me as of now......my question is, is it totally unusable for the 3G with Rogers? cuzi heard ppl told me its still usable, but with a little bit performance deduction....perhaps as not 100% fast as it should be.....anyone got a clue for me?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stu-k:
Well I played with all the roms around and then decided to go back to unrooted for awhile via the unlocker method.

So I ran there nbh file and it unrooted it and i thought ok all is ok.....but my battery went dead in about 4 hours and i keep getting an otr update message, which i did cause i was at work and just wanted a phone that worked.

Now I have a perfected spl, a magic that thinks its a my touch 3g, a camera that doesnt work and a battery life of about 4 hrs. Still trying to make a gold card but the sd cards i get seem not to work.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mongoose8p:
Earlier today I flashed to a new rom and wanted to revert back using a nandroid backup - i tried to move my backups into clockwork folder so I could use clockwork recovery and thats when all hell broke loose

I ended up getting in an endless reboot and when I went into recovery my SD card wouldn't mount. I tried EVERYTHING including the RUU.exe - but no luck it wouldn't complete, SO I was able to add the PC36.IMG (or whatever the exact spelling is) to the SD and it restored that (I used the newest one Toast posted in the 2nd step rooting thread)

Now finally I'm back into android but I have no SD or USB support and again stuck.. Now when I try to reboot recovery I can't even use the update.zip because my phone can't mount the SDCARD within recovery or android. So now I have no idea what to do... Can anyone help? Should I try the RUU.exe on the computer again now that I'm back in android? I don't know if it will work because it seems I have no USB support - I can't ADB or anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentroniX:
My vote is you corrupted your SD card, and that it needs to be formatted. Reboot in to Flipz's recovery; There is an option in there to format and partition the SD card. Or, if you have a MicroSD card reader that you can use with your computer, pop it in there and I betchya the computer can't read it either. Format it with your computer as FAT32.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kthejoker20:
make sure usb debugging is enabled and RUU will work.

Updated, now with Kin Loop! See below

KinLauncher is exactly what it sounds like: A kin-style theme for Windows Mobile. The screen is very simple (and fast), featuring the following customizable buttons:

Messages

Phone

Email

Browser

Music

Camera

Settings

Alarm Clock

Recent

The Spot

The settings for these links can be changed in \Windows\kin_config.txt

Instructions are simple: Download the cab (below), run on your phone, go to Start Menu -> kinlauncher, and your set!

The default settings are configured for the HD2, if someone can make a configuration for other devices, that would be great!

The Loop version

Now you can have all your friends status messages on your homescreen! Install the KinLoopSetup.CAB file, login to Facebook, and then swipe Right. It's beta, so give me feedback!

Also, clicking the Spot now takes you to a custom Facebook update screen. Try it out!

I have an issue with ROM Manager not installing the ROM I just downloaded. I downloaded the Fresh 0.2 ROM and after it finished I chose to Backup Existing ROM & Wipe Data and Cache. I hit OK and nothing happens.

Isn't the phone supposed to automatically turn off and do it's thing? If you can help me I'll send a Google Voice invite your way. I'm dying to install this ROM but I want to know what I'm missing. Do I have to flash a new radio with this ROM?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentroniX:
The fact that /system is read-only means that you are not doing these commands from within recovery. /system is read-only when the device is booted in to the OS.

/system/bin # exit

I chose the option for reboot now and the phone turned back on. Tried to flash rom and still won't reboot on it's own and flash the ROM. What did I do wrong? What is the exit command?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentroniX:
exit just exit's the shell.... I don't know man, looks like you've done it right, maybe it's a problem in ROM Manager? Go grab QuickBoot from the market; That's what I use. When I want to flash, I just hit the 'reboot recovery' option, and then select the ROM from within recovery.

One last question:

When I downloaded the ROM from ROM Manager where did it store it? If I use Quickboot will it see the ROM I already downloaded in ROM Manager? The ROM that I downloaded was Fresh.

Sucks that I paid for it and it doesn't work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentroniX:
I believe they are stored in /sdcard/clockworkmod/download.

Flipz's recovery will only look in the root of the sdcard for ROM zips. So you'll have to move it to the root.

And actually, now that I think about it, that may be your problem... The method you followed installed Flipz's recovery image, whereas ROM Manager was intended to be used with ClockworkMod's recovery image...

Maybe this thread will address your issue? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=702214&highlight=clockworkmod
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
Its hard to say what you did wrong really. ROM Manager does everything for me just by clicking inside the app. The only time I had problems with it was because of the ROM.

It stores the downloaded files on your SDCARD under clockwork/download/

If you can get into recovery then flash from a zip and flash the fresh rom and try rom manager again.

If you're fully rooted you can do this also.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=702214

Like I said though the problems you're having could be your rom cause when I had a older rom it didnt work right either..When I switched to the newer ones like fresh it worked fine.

with rom manager i can backup/restore try new roms in a matter of minutes and it does the work for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
I'm taking the easy way out. I found the ROM, moved it to root of SD, flashed from zip. I'll work on flashing the correct recovery tomorrow. This is crazy but I'll eventually get it down. Thanks for your patience both of you. PM me CENT & DSL I'll send you a Google Voice invite if you need one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentroniX:
Already have a GV account, but I sincerely appreciate the offer!

This is what it's all about man; Testing, tinkering, and learning!

Personally, for what it's worth, I keep it simple and download the ROMs myself and flash them myself. Let's be honest, flashing ROMs can turn your $500 phone in to a shiny paperweight. I don't like having extra steps, and relying on a middle-man application that could possibly have a bug in it and result in a dead device. I'm not saying it's not a proven reliable method for flashing, I just personally don't want to rely on a piece of software when I can do it myself.

And you're learning, you've asked questions, gotten answers, and now have a rooted device and are already flashing ROMs in a day or two. Keep it up man!

The crazy part is that after I hard reset I'm able to use Clock recovery and I don't seem to have that bug that everyone else seems to have. I even updated to the new version of fresh's rom from within ROM Manager and it worked perfectly.

Thanks guys for the help.

I apologize for even posting this, but I searched the forum and couldn't find the answer. I'm an Android noob and am going to give rooting/flashing a custom rom a shot.

In the event that I F something up, can't live with a bug, etc, is there a simple way to just reset the phone to where it was when I bought it? Is that something I can do by just booting into recovery (power+vol) and doing a reset, or do I need to take a backup beforehand?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neotelos_com:
In 99.9% of occasions you can always use the bootloader to flash a stock or rooted rom as a fallback.

As long as you have some SD card read/writer you are all good. I have yet to hear of any bricked phones. :)
[EVO 4G General] cpnichols:
I have tried a lot of the tricks posted on this forum... and they DO help... but I was still loosing a battery life. So I have a new list of things you can try:

- Don't turn on your phone every 5 mins to look at it

- Don't try and show every single feature available to every person walking by

- Don't check every 10 mins to see if your area suddenly has 4G

- Don't play games on it for hours at a time

I realize that this may be hard to do... but eventually as the phone gets more mainstream (and it will once the iphone 4 and droid X come out), you will notice that your phone can go a lot longer on a single charge.
