[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n-j-f:
I hope I am now putting this in the right place but I am getting very frustrated. Decided to bite the bullet and rooted my Desire at the weekend. As I have W7 64bit, I decided to use the Tiny Core Linux method mentioned by benko286.

I installed a Modaco ROM with A2SD+ and so far so good.

Rom Manager allowed me to install the Rom from the SD card. I then used Rom Manager to partition the SD card with a 512mb Ext3 partition and a 32mb swap partition so that I could take advantage of A2SD+.

However, when I install new programs they seem to be going to the phone memory as the space on the phone memory is going down.

I copied the Rom zip file back to the Fat32 partition on the SD card and tried to install the Rom again from scratch using Rom Manager. All I get now is a big red ? and after a few seconds the phone reboots again.

What have I done wrong?

Also, if I use Acronis Disk Director to partition the card, there is an option for the Ext3 partition to be primary or logical - should this be primary and should the Linux swap partition be before of after the Ext3 partition?

All help gratefully received!

TIA

Hello to all!

I'm new in smartphone hacking, but have a lot of experience in programming and hardware.

I want to help with an HTC Herald's sim unlock solution.

Where is the lock located at? ROM?

Isn't posible to unlock with the original firmware?

Where could I find more information?

CALLING ALL OPERA EXPERTS

Hi,

I work for an airline and like to check my roster (work pattern) using Opera. Up until recently it worked fine, but with the new Vodafone update my roster does not load. It is using a secure connection ie https website. I can use internet explorer ok but when I get a change to my roster I have to acknowledge the change via a Java pop up window asking me to contiune running scripts on the page.

I have played with the java settings in Opera but to no avail. The page just hangs.. ANY suggestions greatfully accepted.

Marvo:)

I noticed that with most roms that it takes 3 rings before my phone actually rings. I also noticed if I disconnect data it will ring much faster. I noticed the force 2g option but it does not seem to be working on warm donut. How can I keep the phone on 2g (is that 1x?) mode so that it still has some data but doesn't take so long for the phone to ring. Also maybe it would be possible to have the phone only go to 3g when it notices that it has been using a lot of data for a period of time then automatically drop back to 2g when the data usage falls that would be great. Thanks for everything.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] _CriMson:
have you tried running the phone prioritizer script? I used it on a few older builds and it made the phone respond much faster.. Some apps took a bit longer to respond, but you can tweak the priorities of different processes to get it running to your liking..

If you don't know where to find it, let me know and I'll throw up the APK. I know Incubus included it with a few of his recent Eclair builds.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] t1mman:
You know if it works on Froyo?

If so, please upload it!

Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] _CriMson:
not sure, froyo is the only build I haven't tried it out on. Give it a whirl and let us know if it helps. Worst case, you can just uninstall it. I'm sure it will work though, it worked on every Eclair build I tried
[Touch CDMA Android Development] t1mman:
Seems to install ok, haven't tested calls yet!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bcti:
I was reading and I guess that I remembered it incorrectly. 1x does not allow calls to come through at all although it does save battery life. So I will try the script posted above and see if it helps on froyo. Thanks again.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i always thought on cdma all of your calls come in on 1x, i know in windows mobile every time i got a text or call it would display 1x then after it go back to 3g
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xport:
How do we use this? just install the apk?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] PaceyWhitter:
install the apk and put the folder in the root of your sd card.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] probean:
nope.. no difference at all. am using myn's warm donut.

how about switching places between the vibrate and ringtone starting guys? would that be possible? because i have noticed that the vibrate starts up from the very first ring, though the ringtone starts around/after the 3rd ring only.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bcti:
When you are not on 3g mode and in 1x mode and you are using data your phone will ring busy. So it is good for battery life but unless you had a script that killed all data most of the time you would not be able to receive a call.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] zzkamikazezz:
Hey

I'm living in the US at the minute but will be back in the UK in about a year. Looking at getting the 'vibrant' on T mobile when it comes out here in the US.

Looking at the frequencies for the phone will it work no problem with the 3G networks in the UK when I get home? it has UMTS 2100, but no 1900

Specs:

t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=Samsung-Vibrant

I found this thread:

forum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=33787&sid=f365232aaef6942f0673dde5774cdc50

And this:

o2.com/cr/what_are_radio_waves.asp

In the UK do I only need the 2100 UMTS frequency for it to all work, or do I need a phone that can do 1900 as well? as per here - /en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands

I'm a bit confused!

I had to edit the links as being a new user the board won't let me post external links... Hopefully you can get them to work.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] reuthermonkey:
You only need 2100, although you probably want 900 (not 1900) also.

I believe the T-Mobile variant is 900/1700/2100 so it should be fully euro compatible.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zzkamikazezz:
Great, I thought it would be ok, thanks for confirming ;)

Reason for is I am totally stuck...i have a rooted evo 4g with omj eclair v1.6 and from there it has given me nothing but trouble. At this point i cannot put my phone in recovery for what ever reason (may I add that i have tried all the necessary ways to do so) and now I can't seem unroot my phone. I followed the youtube vid constantly to every detail but I constantly get get the usb error then I tried doing by powering off my device and turning it on with volume buttons and I constantly get the gives me the 140: bootloader version error. At this point I have no other alternative but to try and return the phone for a new one.

If you have an Intel based mac, use Parallels (or VMware).

Just dont try to root from the desktop (virtual folder! the script wont work) but from root (C:\).

Also (maybe also on native windows) you have to connect the phone in 1 second or the script wil quit with error. Start the script, connect the phone, press any key to continue..

This time i had to try three times the root.

First time step 2 wouldnt' work, after retry of step 1 step worked. But then after step 2 i had no sudo rights?, again tried this time, in the meanwhile i was changing clothes for a party, Tada, after third time it worked flawless.

So yes, you can root from mac xD

Anyone figured out a way for install the espresso music app (you know the one with complete rotation) on the hero, WITHOUT an entire espresso rom?

The espresso HTC Music app is without a doubt the best ive used, so id really like to have it on a hero rom. It failed to load for me when i installed via an update.zip and it refuses to install when manual installing it.

I suppose its possible to run it ok (i have the hero one on a vanilla one fine) but proper rotation is the issue i think here.

So yea anyone managed it, if so could you explain?

Works fine. Only issues till now (but need testers and feedback) :

- The slider appearing in the right of the phone dialer (issue corrected with phcanrc) ; (Or you can try the shareware phonex - google it -) ;

- As you can see in the right upper corner of my home screen, the date and the quickmenu icon are superposed. For that issue i've found the workaround here, but I didn't use it yet.

[Nexus One General] Shahpur.Azizpour:
it's not that the iPhone display is washed out, it's more like the AMOLED display of the Nexus One over-saturates the colors to the extent that it will burn your eyeballs out. Color reproduction on N1 and HTC Desire AMOLED screens is the biggest flaw of those devices, besides the stupid PenTile Matrix Display problem.

Want to see how those colors are MEANT to look like, then check out the Motorola Droid display or the iPhone 4 display. Both displays have been scientifically proved to be far superior in color reproduction and pixel density to the really bad AMOLED on N1.
[Nexus One General] torchedlh:
Who needs scientifically accurate color reproduction on a smartphone? It's for media consumption, not graphic editing. The more vivid, saturated, and brighter the screen the better.
