Photo ?

I have had the same problem for over a year and i must say that i have checked my pins and the middle one does seem to be out of sync with the others. Having said that they are very easy to maneuver in and out, but not so easy to bend without risk of breaking.

My question is are they all supposed to be equal in appearance, my middle one of the three or should that be five seems to be slightly raised compared to the others, whilst i can bend it down i can not seem to make it stay in that position. I have replaced the battery whilst pushing down on the middle pin hoping this will resolve my problems (we shall see).

Whilst many people have posted many thanks for sorting out this problem, can anyone actually give info on what their pins looked like and how you manipulated them to be correct. Indeed can anyone send pics of what their pins look like, standard, bent, bent back to shape, just for comparison.

Many thanks

[HD2 General] king786:
hi just make sure.that all pins are making contact and also the pins are supposed to be straight if not slightly pull to make sure they all make contact

press thanks if i helped √
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
they should all look the same, sticking out perpendicular from teh side wall of the battery well.

this seriously could not be whats wrong with my phone?!?! its doing the same thing but my phone actually tries to load up and goes all the way to the occupy together.org thing and then its goes right back to stick together...blah blah blah. the last battery pin seems a little off..could this really be the problem??
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
rea the forums, its a pretty common thing, , bent battery pin causes reboot BUT it usually reboots just at eth start of loading, so yours is probably different.
[HD2 General] beautifulm321:
can't i just do a hard reset on it?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Sure, why haven't you already?
[HD2 General] reocej:
Thankkkkkk yooooooo!!!!

Dude I've been racking my brains for hours trying to figure this thing out! Installing Android on a friends phone and having this same issue. I'm no noob but its the simple stuff that gets us sometimes. I saw the bent contact and thought that might be it but never seriously considered it till I found this thread. Guess my own pride kept me from doing a search.:rolleyes::p Thanks again!;)
[HD2 General] kitjarik:
Hi guys!

I start having the hope my HD2 is not completely bricked. Is the symptom of bent pins absolutely no reaction on power-on, just a short, barely sensible vibration? That's my case, and my HD2 started being like that for no reason.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
no, bent pin is usually either nothing at all, or booting as far as splashscreen and then rebooting

Yours is more likely either a flat battery, or an actual fault.
[HD2 General] jotters:
I recently got the same problem, but my battery pins are fine.

Phone booted fully and rebooted and rebooted etc.

Started when I was about to move files through bluetooth. (after turning bt on)

Don't know what the issue was, but re-install with hard reset seems to have solved the issue for now.

Thanks very much, I used iconverticons.com to change it to a .png to use it on my dock!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mtxrooster:
I thought I'd share this with you guys.. First off, tnx for the pics (making OR finding and posting here), even though as some said they might be available elsewhere, it's nice to have stuff categorized and placed under a thread somewhere that is applicable to an actual use. And that's why I'm here.. I've a nugget of wisdom to share with ya, inspired to post by reading a recent post about making an icon on his desktop for when the evo is connected.

There's no need for that! The Evo can act just as any Flash/USB device! I was going to post an image, but because I'm new, it won't let me. I'll post the link and maybe a moderator will edit my post and enable/set it to be viewed instead of just clicked on...

h tee tee pea christiankeysmashers.com/_img/evo_in_use.png

To do this, you need to do a couple simple steps.

Fist, use "The Gimp" of your graphic editing tool of choice and open any of the png files in this post, and save as an icon (in Gimp it's as simple as 'save as', and replace png with ico, it'll detect what format you want to use..).

Once you have the .ico file, connect your evo and set it to drive mode. Copy over the icon file to the "root"/main folder (not a rooted phone, just mean the top directory the one all folders are in, nothing fancy/hacked/custom necessary).

Once you've done that, create a new file and call it "autorun.inf". In there, paste the following:

[autorun]
label=EVO 4G
icon=evo2.ico

Label will of course label the device whatever you want.. icon is the name of the icon you want to have displayed. Autorun.inf file goes to the main folder of the phone as well.

Disconnect (or cycle the mode to charge only, wait for the sd to reinitialize) and then reconnect as a drive once again. You should see your icon and device name/label neatly in place :) (Note as you can see from my image, this works on all media... I've an icon of my camera on my camera memory, and just about a matching image of every one of my flash drives (just missing one, which is miscolored). Makes it easy and professional to use, and adds a little bling factor to your evo.. If you're all that, you could even take a new pic of your phone so the icon matches whatever wallpaper you use :)

DO NOTE. There are rules.. Depending on what OS you use.. Sizes must be the same, IE 128x128, or 48x48, NOT 32x48 as one of the png's is.. If that's the case, you'll need to make adjustments to either change the canvas size or cut/paste the actual phone into a newer properly sized image.. The one I used in the example worked flawlessly with simply a png-2-ico "convert" (again, save as .ico)

Hope this help and inspires ya'll out there!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mattgreek:
Hi, thanks for the detailed instructions. I've got the phone loading an icns icon on my mac but in trying to get it to work on a PC I followed your directions, however, when I eject the phone and then reconnect it to the PC, the 'autorun.inf' file that I created is gone, the .ico file is there, but not the .inf file, so basically the icon won't show up, it just looks like a regular removable drive icon. Any ideas on why that might be? Thanks.

[Droid Incredible General] jonnybueno:
I'm not a mod, but I would guess that it was moved because there was no development going on. Why was it closed? I dunno... maybe the mode are getting sick of moderating this forum.

[Droid Incredible General] jonnybueno:
they moved a lot of stuff so i might have been an accident. try pm'ing a mod.

I'm not sure how long you've been on xda for, but in my experience it is common for requests (even development requests) to be moved to general. They usually want only actual development in the development subforum out of consideration for developers and users alike. it can be a bit trying to wade through all the ot discussion.
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
thanks, its not the moving i mind, its the closing thread, so any mod who see's this can you please explain why?

[Droid Incredible General] ghostrida:
Asking a question about a feature for possible development is not development, its a general question and should go in the General/Q&A section. Pretty much everything should go under General, unless you have some source or compiled ROM or Kernel to contribute.

I'm not a Mod obviously but spending a lot of time in the N1 Dev section you get a sense of what is and is not acceptable and how well it is tolerated.

Edit: obviously if you're posting an app apk or talking about cases there are sections for Apps, Themes and Accessories also.
[Droid Incredible General] jitajt:
I think we all understand why it was moved but I don't see any reason as to why it was closed, there are a lot of locked or closed threads that don't seem like they should be, it could be that there is a thread closing happy Mod, or they are getting locked or closed by mistake.
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
Exactly, moving the thread is fine, but why close it?

[Droid Incredible General] contagous:

Nice to see you over here to :)

And yes we seriously do, I would also LOVE it if anyone could do any of these following things to...

1) Camera stabilization that actually works

2) 2 stage camera button using the track pad (push/release)

3) App that allows 360 rotation on all apps that allow rotation.

4) Decent Panoramic camera app (like the Omnia on-screen Stitching)

5) Decent burst mode that works well and can choose how many shots it takes and time in between shots.

With those and with the rotation hack/app, i would be such a happy camper...

Come on dev's anyone know if if this is possible, if it is i'm willing to donate for sure :)
[Droid Incredible General] contagous:
So my original post was shut in couple of hours, but this post has been here for nearly a day and a Mod hasn't given any type of excuse or answer to why the post was closed?

You need to be more specific with what you are having problems with.

Also pretty much every question about rooting this phone and flashing roms has been asked more than once. I suggest using the search function to find the information you are seeking. If you can't find an answer that way then feel free to ask a "specific" question regarding your issue and I'm sure someone here will be glad to help

[myTouch 3G Slide General] rlacsamana1989:
bet your having the same issues as I did. Which is why i created a guide to help. It is in my sig on how to prepare root.

You only need SDK for the adb feature, you do not need to set up SDK other then moving the folder to the correct spot,(which my guide has directions on where to put it) adding tools from Eugenes post into the tools section of SDK.

Good luck on rooting your device.

Biggest issues while I was learning via this guide is the packages you install do not include the adb drivers for the slide which in my guide it shows how to do so.

How do you completely remove a pre-installed game? I tried to remove "Millionaire 2010" by deleting the capcom folder but the icon's still showing when I go into games on my phone. Any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watcher64:
First , you cannot "completely" get rid of pre-installed apps, that is why most of us use custom ROMs here ...

The Preinstalled games are cooked into your rom, they will come back if you ever have to hard reset ...

If the Icon bugs you that much goto "My Device" /windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games , and you will find the lnk to delete .....

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] effluent:
Sorry for the vague title didn't know how to describe it. First of all I'll say I'm fully rooted with Damage Control 3.2.1. Basically I was chillin at Buffalo Wild Wings this afternoon(and just now got home to try and fully deal with this), had set the phone on the table with the kickstand open for others to bask in it's glory, and right after I set it down the screen went black(although the taskbar was still there). After a minute of it being that way I rebooted. Then when it booted back up and unlocked the screen it was black with force closes from a few programs, which after clicking Ok they go away and then it's just ADW.Launcher fc'ing over and over and over and over and over again. You click Ok and it comes up again before there's time to do anything with a black screen behind, and can't do anything with the phone because of that. Rebooted a few times by taking out the battery, you literally don't even have time to click 'turn phone off' before the ADW fc pops back up..tried re-flashing the rom, nandroid then wipe then re-flash..same thing. Anyone have ideas on why it's doing this and how to fix? Thanks.

Hi GS Owners,

I recommend phones to my friends and have told many to hold on to their money till the release of Galaxy S.

My question to you is, will you recommend this phone to those who need a smartphone? heard that there few tiny issues here and there and do they play big part in purchase decision.

Regards,

Amar.

Best smartphone ive used in a while

I would definately recommend the galaxy to friends, its not without its quirks like the GPS works but seems to be a little jumpy and it doesnt have a flash for some reason. Other than that its the best phone i have ever used, its not perfect but its a huge improvement on my old touch hd. It has one of the best screens on a smartphone ive ever seen, i dont care that the iphone 4 has more ppi - the contrast and brightness of the samsung screen is amazing.

The only thing i am disappointed with is the android market (lack of apps and general quality of apps), but im sure this will improve.

My smartphone history:

HTC Touch - too slow

HTC TYTN II -too chunky

HTC TOUCH HD - bad screen (unresponsive)

SAMSUNG GALAXY S -great (few quirks)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Perrosky:
the reasons I want to go with it is because I want to stay with tmobile since it's the cheapest company in plan terms $119 for 2 phones unlimited everything? sprint or verizon can't beat that and because out of all the samsung galaxys is the desing that I like the most I have red here about alot of things don't working but they are software related and I know once dev start making roms for it that will go way, no led flash I don't care about that I don't think that any phone with a 2 little led will make much difference when taking a picture, no led notification I would like to have that but not a deal braker for me. I think devs will pay attention to this phone it have 16gb build in memory so installing new roms even if they are bigger in mb would be more easy than move them to sd cards, the only thing its that I need the phone to tether good since I want to use the phone internet in my Ipad OR notebook.

So here's the deal, over the weekend I got one EVO at one radio shack (they only had one) and the next day I got another for my girl friend at a different radio shack. They both look the same and both show the same hardware version "3" but when I was looking through my corrected polarized sun glasses the 2nd one that we received looked weird, not really sure how to explain it but it looked a little reflective with some weird colors and looked different from various angels. So I'm not sure if its defective maybe since the 1st one we got looks perfect through the glasses.

Any ideas?

Yeah, don.t look at it through corrected polarized sun glasses.

How does it look without the glasses.

Without the polarized glasses you can't tell the two apart. I'm glad I got the one that doesn't have this issue as I wear my sun glasses a lot becuase of my eye sensitivity issues.
