[Nexus One General] woollypigs:
Took over my partners Nexus One, a few months back and all was ok and even after I set it up for me.

Then the wifi just died, as in it will not even start up. So I waited to for the update to 2.2 FRF83 but that didn't help.

So I tried out CyanoganMod newest build.

The nexus is now running nice and fast and looks very good with the colours on the track ball, but still no wifi.

The only thing I get is "unable to start wifi"

So I'm now running :

2.1-update

32.36.00.28H-4.06.00.12_7

CyanoganMod-5.0.8-N1
[Nexus One General] woollypigs:
bump.

when I try update the radio.img I get this ...

fastboot flash recovery radio.img

sending 'recovery' (24832 KB)... OKAY

writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: image error! (BootMagic check fail))

3G etc works just fine, but can't even start the wifi, just keep getting "unable to start wifi"

Anyone got an idea?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaapx:
Been reading some Threads all over the forum but there is somehing that is not very clear to me...

I live in Mexico City and also I'm the proud owner of a Nexus one buid number EPE54B

does this mean my phone is from AT&T????

I bought it here in Mexico and was told that it was an unlocked phone...

thanks in advance
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talderon:
There are 2 models of the Nexus One.

What is being called T-Mobile and AT&T.

These are UNLOCKED phones, however, the difference is the GSM Radio's in them for 3G DATA service.

The one you have was designed to work on the AT&T Radio frequencies, however, will work with ANY GSM provider for voice and 2G data.

[HTC Aria Accessories] HDCS:
For those nerds out there looking for a place to hang useless pieces of flair from their Arias, I have good news! I found the trinket hook.

If you look at the bottom of the phone to the right of the microusb port, there is a small hole. Pop off the case and you will find in this same spot on the yellow frame the approximate perfect size hook for a charm cord. Pass the loop for any said charm/lanyard/weed holder/etc through the black outer cover through that small hole, then fit the loop over the small yellow hook. Snap your cover back on and you are now tchotchky enabled!

[HD2 General] cjmdaniels:
Hey guys,

I've been browsing this forum and others and I'm having trouble finding a reasonable answer and very little help...

I have a TMOUS HD2 (LEO)

with ChuckyROM (June 20th) release

running 2.12.50.02_2 Radio

I am having trouble running Zenonia

I've tried versions 1.2-1.6 and non of them work

I hit the icon, it goes to the loading page, then goes

back to my home screen...

I've heard its cause by memory issues, certains roms, and

also can be an issue with CHT....

Anyone know a fix for this?

I had it working on the previous release and also on

this release but it only lasted a couple days....

had to soft reset to make it work

help??
[HD2 General] runningdap:
Most of the times i use the hd2 as an mp3 player when im travelling via the subway station. I keep my phone in my bag and use the headset that came with the device to listen to the music. If i want to skip a song or repeat it, i just use the little hardware keys on the headset. The problem is that if i want to lower the volume, i have to get the phone out of the bag and press the hardware keys on the device to do so.

Back to the headset now, I noticed that if you press and hold the "Pause/Play" button, nothing happens. So i was wondering... Is it possible to make the volume go up and down by pressing the "Pause/Play" button on the headset, with the combination of "Next"(to get the volume up) and "Previous" (to get the volume down)?

(holding "Pause/Play"+"Next" = volume up)

(holding "Pause/Play"+"previous" = volume down)

I have a program for that. Headset Button.
[HD2 General] runningdap:
doesnt say anything about combination but i guess that works as well. thx for the sharing! :D
[HD2 General] Igor Lozovsky:
Combinations are not supported. Default assignments are:

Single press "Next" = next track

Long press "Next" = fast forward

Double long press "Next" = volume up

Single press "Prev" = previous track

Long press "Prev" = rewind

Double long press "Prev" = volume down
[EVO 4G General] lolz mclollerson:
Any suggestions as to the best way to harass HTC into releasing the EVO source code quicker?

Send them e-mails or phone calls? Call Sprint and ask for it?

Can we do something like the campaign we tried for the FPS issue?

Thanks.

Per zonyl on page 2:
[EVO 4G General] Geniusdog254:
It seems no amount of begging ever makes them release code faster. Even legal threats failed before (not for the Evo, but its the same thing)

They know they have to release it by this point. They will do it, but on their own schedule. Pushing them to do it sooner hasn't gotten us anywhere before & I don't see it helping here either.
[EVO 4G General] lolz mclollerson:
Damn, that's pretty disappointing.

Thanks for the heads up. :-/
[EVO 4G General] gman8966:
I was actually talking to a guy from HTC earlier today about releasing the source. He told me that they will release it but he does not know when.
[EVO 4G General] itmustbejj:
Information content of this mesage: 0%.

Of course they will release it, the GPL requires them to do so. But then again they are already violating it every day they don't release it, so maybe they will just say f*ck it.
[EVO 4G General] midri:
Bring a class action suit if you're really worried about it, you won't make any $, lawyer will get rich -- but maybe, just maybe it will hit HTC hard enough to realize they can't jerk the Open Source Community around and they are bound by the same laws as everyone else.
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
Why do people always come up with this?

You have no standing to sue anyone over this. Copyright holders in the Linux kernel, *they* have standing to sue someone over this.

The GPL says they have to make the source available, but it's not for you to use legal means to force them to do it.

Class action? Who's the affected class? The people who bought the Evo? Not hardly.
[EVO 4G General] EShy:
A class action that will hurt HTC? make them reconsider releasing Android phones? you might get a short term benefit of getting source code (well, not really, since the law suit will take longer) but in the long term, the Android community will just lose one of it's biggest supporters
[EVO 4G General] bcnice20:
I really think sprint is to blame for this you notice all of the source is availed for just about every other phone except the .29 heroc kernel and the evo kernel makes ya wonder if they are playing a part
[EVO 4G General] gbm85:
If the source isn't out by my 30 days (7/6), it's going back. There's no excuse for being so cavalier with copyrights. Ironic considering they just launched a legal campaign against Shipped ROMs.

What we need is for HTC to stop acting like Apple just because they finally have a phone that can compete with the iPhone. I don't care if this damn thing files my taxes and makes breakfast for me, if they can't respect the GPL they sure as hell aren't going to keep a cent of my money.
[EVO 4G General] Vinny75:
I've contacted HTC and Sprint... not luck... you can search my posts if you really want to read the responses.... I even contacted the FSF (I think they are the copyright holders for Linux Kernel for Linus) and no response from them... so eh yeah we just wait
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
Apparently you didnt have a Hero. The only thing you can do is wait...

[EVO 4G General] danknee:
I have obtained some super secretive information that can help us get the edge. Through hours of undercover work and social engineering I have discovered that the HTC Engineers are partial to Ben & Jerry's Half Baked ice cream.

I urge all of you to start a letter writing campaign to Ben & Jerry's urging them to exchange 10 pallets of ice cream for the source code. If we can't convince Ben & Jerry's that our charity is worthwhile, then we need to start raising money to buy it ourselves.

I've never asked this forum for anything, but I am asking now..
[EVO 4G General] NickMl:
What about people who have made commits to the Linux/Android kernel? Would they be able to move this forward for the community?
[EVO 4G General] zonyl:
I managed to get Linux source for the Sharp Zaurus within a week and a half and Im sure following the same playbook will speed up the process with HTC as well. Hopefully I will have some time next week to do this, but the more the merrier! The more people call and contact legal the more attention it will get.

The plan:

- Call HTC corporate

HTC America

13920 SE Eastgate Way, Suite 400

Bellevue, Washington 98005

Tel: 425-679-5318

- Ask for representative in Legal Department (Tell them it is regarding potential litigation)

- Get legal representative's contact information before or immediately after being transferred.

- Politely ask for disclosure of GPL/Linux source code per section 3 of the GPL for the device they manufactured and that you purchased. (You may need to explain a little as they generally have no idea what this is. Doesnt matter much though as they still wont understand but make sure you explain its something that their engineering folks are liable for)

- Give them the GPL (by fax) http://www.linux.org/info/gnu.html The license is even on the phone itself (Menu->Settings->About Phone->Legal Information->Open Source). Scroll down and you will see the linux kernel GPL

- Give them a written request (by fax) "Dear Sir or Madam, ..... Requesting Source for my product in compliance with GPL Section 3-a ... Thank you...."

- They will tell you they need some time to figure it out.... Give them about a week and call back (they will try to ignore you on the first call in hopes you go away)

- Call back using the representatives contact info. Ask them for the status.

- If they are stalling ask for the legal address to list as a defendant on a lawsuit for breach of contract and will be demanding "An Order of Specific Performance" to release the code. (BE POLITE! BUT FIRM) (This will definitely get their attention!)

- Wait a few days. Someone from engineering with a foreign accent will call you with information on when / where the source will be released.

- If this doesnt get anywhere, we can talk about the process of starting a lawsuit without paying lawyer. When HTC is served legal papers for discovery, Im pretty sure they will comply.

Post here with your results so we can collaborate.
[EVO 4G General] lolz mclollerson:
I added that to the first post.

It can't hurt to try. I'll give it a go after Tuesday, I have an exam this week.

Regarding discloure of the source code, what did you say to the folks at Sharp to get them to listen to you?
[EVO 4G General] zonyl:
In my experience, all foreign companies (even some domestic ;) ) are paranoid of the US legal system. If you call their legal department they listen with intent.

I was a very active opensource developer with many contributions to various projects and some of them I needed to defend. As stated above, I simply requested the linux source code per the licensing of the software they used. You have paid money to purchase a product made by them that has a promise (even on the phone itself) to disclose the source code of parts of the software to you. The lawyer/paralegal I talked with at Sharp had no idea about the technical details of the licensing of opensource, but at least he did understand that he needed to get his engineering department to do something to avoid a potential lawsuit. That was all that was needed and within a week their head of engineering in Japan called me confirm what I was asking for and tell me they were putting it on a website within two days.

I dont think HTC is trying to hide anything from us or is purposefully trying to delay the release. They are just being lazy about getting a code review done and spending some time on identifying the branch in their repository that needs to be released. Calling their legal department will stoke the fire quite a bit.
[EVO 4G General] johnsongrantr:
in addition, it was released on the 22nd, the same as the other phones, I said it before with the hero, they have their own schduel and no amount of *****ing or complaining will do anything.

HTC Tattoo Kernel Source Code 71.4 MB 2010/01/22

HTC Hero (Sprint) Kernel Source Code 49.7 MB 2010/01/22

HTC Hero Kernel Source Code 49.6 MB 2009/10/22

When it does drop, the complainers feel like they did something because it would appear to have worked. But... that's not the case.

Tommorow morning I'm going to scream as loud as I can at the night sky to make the sun come up. Lets see if it works.
[EVO 4G General] itmustbejj:
I applaud you for having an actual plan of actual, that does make sense. But if Apple and their legal army couldn't bully HTC, where do you think these claims are going to register on a threat level to them?
[EVO 4G General] zonyl:
Its not a matter of threat level, its a matter of litigation expense / speed. This is simple case law UCC which will cycle through much faster than a patent dispute. In addition, this will involve a different type of Lawyer at HTC who actually does work instead of posturing.

Apple's complaints are important to them but the resolution wont happen on that without a lot of expense for Apple and they know it. Because of the simplicity of the case really (breach of contract that is documented on the phone you purchased) you can walk into small claims right now.

I'm among the many (im)patiently awaiting the source code...
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
Hi,

I have a 4GB SD card and it thinks that it has a total of 200MB on there (Its empty).

I have tried formatting it using my Mac , Linux & via the Desire itself but it continues to believe that its a 200MB MiniSD card.
[Desire General] dnlgee:
Does it have a second partition?
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
Nope.

Its just one partition in total.
[Desire General] dnlgee:
Lol sounds like a dud. Which brand is it?
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
ScanDisk I think.

Its the one that came with my HTC Desire a month or two ago.

Its only just messed up.
[Desire General] dnlgee:
Do you have anything else that supports MicroSD, could try slotting it into another phone or something and see what that detects.
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Yeap, seems like it is defective... especially since you have tried formatting on different OS platforms.

You could try formatting it again using this tool but there's probably won't make any difference :)

http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/

EDIT: have you tried formatting the card in a digital camera? might make a difference...
[Desire General] jullejul:
you sad that you did get it 2-3 months ago, then i think you got the warranty left. if you got the warranty left send it back
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
Who would I contact?

HTC?

T-Mobile?

ScanDisk?

As it came with the phone.
[Desire General] shantul:
I had a similar problem with my card last week; it started saying "blank or unsupported SD card". I used the Support link on HTC's website (sorry can't post links as I am new) and raised a ticket. I was asked to call their support number and the person said they would like to get the phone into the repair centre to diagnose the problem. So they sent UPS to come and collect it from me and the phone's now at the service centre.

Hope this helps.
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
Thats interesting.

Is there anyway to send off just the SD card to who'm ever wether its ScanDisks issues or HTC's and not the entire phone?
[Desire General] langers1:
Try running the disk management facility in windows (Right click my computer - Manage - Disk Management)

It may have a unformatted disk partition on it hence it isnt showing up the rest of the unallocated space (Most likely if its been used in a MAC and formatted in non FAT).

Delete the unallocated space then run something like HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool.

I have just had the same problem where i was missing 500mbs of my SD card and this got it all back
[Desire General] shantul:
Well, I asked them the same thing as I was looking for HTC to replace the card for me. ;) But they wanted to get the phone in to diagnose whether there was any problem with the phone or OS itself that was causing it.
[Desire General] wickedpenguin:
FIX

Sometimes this happens to new cars when they are partitioned incorrectly. What you need to do is download a program called SWISS Knife.

Its a windows app, but you can run it through boot camp or VM fusion, that will detect all the partitions on your card, then you just delete tge partitions and remove and plug your sd back in and Viola!! You have a4GB card again.

i just installed this Rom on my Nexus:

i wiped everything before installing and everything is running smooth.

i love the Rom, but i started noticing that ppl kept texting me back ? marks

or saying what was i talking about. i guess texts are scrambling and sending to diff ppl, and im receiving text's under ppl that didnt originally send the text if that makes any sence.

is any one else experiencing this? i remember reading an article about it i think on engadget or gizmodo. but im wondering if its a ROM or Google thing.

in all fairness i did use the search button, no flaming or being rude or else u get a stick trown at you ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
this has been reported long time ago on 2.1 when the nexus first came out. then other phones reported it like the droid. google never figured out what exactly caused it, it was baffling. i've always used handcent insstead just because of this "possible" glitch. i could get in a lot of trouble if i sent a text to the wrong person.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cangri87:
Weird this is the 1st time its happend to me or any one telling me about it. i rebooted hopefully it wont happen, cause i can also get in trouble sending wrong texts to the wrong person.
