[EVO 4G General] GHOST99K:
well..... nothing is working out for me.i bought an OEM TP2 battery and portable battery charger even then i have to charge the EVO about twice a day and the most annoying thing is that the phone gets HOTTTTT within 20 mintes of use(whats the point of using the phone if it gets hot within a matter of time?):mad:.my last HTC device.
[EVO 4G General] EtherealRemnant:
How hot is it getting because mine barely even gets warm unless im using a hacked kernel. You may just have a defective battery/ phone.
[EVO 4G General] Freelancerx:
your holding it wrong....

lol no seriously though something is wrong with your phone if your not getting at least 15 hours awake time something is wrong....im a pretty heavy user and i get about 6 hours awake time and about 20 hours uptime...
[EVO 4G General] EtherealRemnant:
I definitely wasn't getting that until I stuck my battery in my Touch Pro 2... Even with everything off except the 3G radio, auto brightness, my phone would be dead in less than 12 hours.

I did notice that my old Touch Pro 2 battery, which had been laying around for months without use, has about 20% better performance than my "new" EVO battery (I have the revision that isn't completely covered in the orange and you can see parts of the silver).
[EVO 4G General] GHOST99K:
i dont no folks could b cuz i drained both of the batteries all the way?come to think about it got worse after i drained both batteries.anyway im gonna do a test tommorow(morning to night) after fully charge it tonite on the EVO OEM battery.wanna c how long it last without a charge and c the temperature on the phone.

It's seems ever since I upgraded to 6.5 most of the time my text massages will say there sent but the other person never gets them. Or I never get their messages when they send them. Do You think it's a phone issue or was it the update?

Please help if you can.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] HTHT:
I've i600, but menu should be same. Check if You have correct number in this option:

settings -> phone -> all calls -> call options -> text messages service center
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ShadowLegion:
The number is like it should be but im still having some issues
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] diego1985:
Where is the link you flash your i617 with becuase the ones they have here don't work. I want to flash and see if i get the same problem.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ShadowLegion:
It's been a while since I flashed it so I don't have a link but where can I get one that works because I also have a issue with it freezing when my alarm is suppose to go off sometimes
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] diego1985:
Ok well someone finally sent me a link to flash it. My only problem im having is returning my original at&ts network settings.
[Droid Incredible General] Jyosua:
I ported my phone number over from AT&T. My Incredible was supposed to ship on the 22nd. It shipped on the 24th, with no reason given. Then, I wasn't home on the 25th to sign for it, so I had to trek to the FedEx place to pick it up. It took me an hour waiting in line. I get home, and follow the directions to activate my phone. It activates, programs the phone, and reboots it. Finally, I'm done, right? No. Instead of being able to call out, or receive calls, I can't. If I try to call out, it redirects my phone call to the activation process. If people try to call me, it rings and rings, but I don't receive the call.

I tried reactivating again. It failed this time, and redirected me to customer support. I'm in a house, all alone, with no landline. Therefore, I can't call anyone, not even the 800 numbers for support. The only way I was able to get support earlier was because the activation process redirected my call when it failed. The problem now is that because of the time, their support is closed. Earlier, they had me remove the battery and wait. That didn't work. So I had to get ahold of a different rep because that one couldn't call me back due to my issue. That one told me to wait a few hours. The issue still hasn't improved. It's weird, because on their end it says my phone is activated, and I can use the data network on my phone, but I can't send or receive sms/mms or calls.

Help? :(
[Droid Incredible General] rfarrah:
You didn't specify that you've done this (per se), so I'm going to suggest that you dial *228 and press for option 1. Let it do it's thing and reboot.

If it still doesn't work, Go to Settings > Wireless & Networks. Make sure Airplane mode is NOT checked. Scroll down and make sure Mobile network IS checked. Then tap Mobile Networks on that same page. You MAY want to check the first two boxes, but then tap System Select and check Automatic.

Hope this helps.
[Droid Incredible General] krelvinaz:
Curious, but did you bother calling customer service?

It is possible your account is messed up and needs to work done by a CS rep to fix.

I've had something similar with other phones in the past that had to be resolved by CS.
[Droid Incredible General] Jaguox:
*611 for Customer Service. Free, doesn't require you to have an actual plan, just be able to connect to the VZW network (which if you are connecting to the activation/programming you are) They will be able to help you. I suspect your number wasn't yet ported or the port wasn't completed. There are at least two systems they need to activate your account information in and I'd guess one completed and the other didn't. Stupid system if you ask me. They will ask you to remove the battery from your phone again at some point, it is actually a required step, not like when internet service providers tell you to reboot your modem... I know it is frustrating but you may have to continue to call until you get someone competent enough, or you can just ask to be elevated when you call.
[Droid Incredible General] Jyosua:
As an update, it began working at 4AM that day. What happened was apparently an outage in their backend services, and it cause my activation to go through, but the tieup caused it to not remove the callblock in place.

I had tried all the things you guys recommended before I posted this thread.

It was ridiculous, I couldn't even call customer support using *661. In fact, the support reps I got earlier couldn't even call me back if we got disconnected.

Anyhow, all is well now, and I'm really enjoying my phone. A nice switch from my HTC Fuze with AT&T.
[General Topics] blyant:
So i broke the glass screen(not sure what its proper name is) on my HTC Touch Diamond 2 a while ago, and now i want to fix it.

Is there any chance of doing this myself?

Where and what do i need to buy to fix it?

Appreciate the help a lot.
[General Questions and Answers] bodgybrothers:
I've been looking through the vast amount of info on gaining access to the chipset for sending AT commands. What I'm attempting to do is make this easy within a visual studio .NET project.

My Test device is a HTC touch pro2 running WM6.1

I have translated most of a post from this forum into VB.net. see attached ril.zip for the c code I'm trying to translate. see attached smartdeviceapplication1.zip for my attempt at translation.

My code is attached. I cannot work out the DeviceIoControl function (even after following the MSDN documentation) and the EscapeCommFunction wont work.

I need some help with what I'm doing wrong here. I'm basically trying to translate the c++ code to vb.net code.. (I know, VB.net is for loosers. but with all the people on the internet asking for this, it seems it might be usefull for someone other than just me)

The goal is to make a class to provide direct access to the com ports with .NET.

Let me know if someone has already done this. My searching on the internet only comes up with variants of c code.

Thanks

my code for gretting the DeviceIoControl

<DllImport("coredll.dll", CharSet:=CharSet.Unicode, SetLastError:=True)> _

Ok.. I just realised I needed to initialise the ril and get a new com handle. it then creates com 9 which is the port to use..... It helps when you read the MSDN docs!

Strange problem I haven't had before. All I did was update a few apps including launcher pro, and reboot. Ever since, my device crashes every boot and reboots. Here's a logcat:

UPDATE: Wipe/reflash fixed it, but I'd still like to know what the issue was as I'd like to restore that backup..
[Click Android Development] Coburn64:
Say you wanted Android 1.6 and 2.1 on your HTC Tattoo, but didn't want to flash it all the time for the custom 2.1 ROM to be used. My idea (which may/may not work) is that Android 1.6 is booted from the NAND flash, and the kernel offers the user a choice - Boot 1.6 from flash or Boot 2.x from a special partition on the SD Card. In summary:

Power On Tattoo

Kernel Loads

Kernel pauses, waits for user to make choice via Key Press.

- If Android 2.1 is selected, Kernel remaps loading pointers to the SD Card and continues booting 2.1 off the SD Card.

- If Android 1.6 is selected, Kernel keeps booting.

- If iPhone OS is selected, Tattoo explodes into fireworks.

Android Boots.

Android Desktop/Sense UI appears.

Phone is usable.

I've done this before on x86 platforms, I have a bootloader boot-strapping the Linux kernel on a 48MB NAND IDE Flash Module which points the kernel to boot from the USB Drive with a copy of Debian Squeeze (6.0) installed on it. It shouldn't be too hard to achieve.

I hardly know any kernel knowledge apart from being able to adjust fan speeds and read memory usage/temperature/dropping cache RAM for speed boost, but with enough time and effort, we could have a Play and Work Tattoo device - 2.1 for play, 1.6 for work! :)

Well, that's my two cents.

Cheers,

Coburn.
[Click Android Development] crazyworlds:
You must have a bootloader that pass your kernel parameter, expecialy the root device.

The solution could be a software that can reboot the phone with other kernel parameter
[Click Android Development] Holyachmed:
or you may have two yaffs2 imgs on your sdcard with the whole android system and on boot mount them into flash
[Click Android Development] ralle.gade:
we could always have a look at this and maybe steal something from it ;D http://github.com/planetbeing/iphonelinux
[Click Android Development] TheSSJ:
Yes, that thing uses openIboot, whatever this is...^^
[Click Android Development] ralle.gade:
It's an application for ipod touch/iPhone which works like grub bootloader :)
[Click Android Development] Coburn64:
I just thought I'd mention that ARM devices don't have a BIOS, they are hardwired to load some binary code to get the device started on boot. So GRUB may be out of the question...

Unless we use a ARM port of Debian to overwrite some kernel memory and shove the kernel of Android 1.6 out of RAM and insert the 2.1 kernel into RAM... but that's going to get messy.
[Click Android Development] crazyworlds:
The most simple method is to have a software that boot the new kernel configured for other root device on SDcard.

An example is haret for windows mobile.
[Click Android Development] ralle.gade:
Coburn have u Even looked at the link I just gave you?

It's not grub!! It's an application which starts before anything else and it has the possibilityto load up a system.img directly from memory on ipod's/iPhones

This could be our base to start out with and then modify it so it fits our devices!!! I never said that tattoo had BIOS! :mad:
[Click Android Development] Coburn64:
Okay okay okay! No need for the angry face, I misunderstood your post.

Looks promising, but looks like it may be more tailored to the iPhone. Unless we make our own SPL and flash that - now there's an idea! :P

jesus christ really? ... you really asking this? wow man how did you root your phone without at least reading once out of the many many times that toast has said DO NOT run official updates....wait for the dev community to incorporate any updates....will it break root? maybe maybe not, will it stop you from being able to root? maybe, maybe not... you can do whatever you want with your phone...also we have a search function on these forums...well there may be hope for you yet, at least you posted in the right forum section.....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecodemonk:
Taking official updates is risky...it's usually only a day or two behind that the devs of other ROMs (DC included) incorporate the fixes from the official fix into their ROMs in a manner that is safe for use (safe from losing root, etc).

Suggestions:

1) Flash a stock ROM before you flash this one.

2) Suggested radio is 1.11.25.01 since the drivers were taken from the HTC rom.

3) Keep it clean. Add only one outside program at a time.

ROM uses RunCC only.

May I add another point to your list? Can you change the timezone? I never could do so using the manila dialog, it only worked with windows settings. Unfortunately I can't acess them any more :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jwzg:
The ONLY tweak I've made to the registry is enabling NITZ which simply allows the phone to change time and zone based on cell towers. I'm not sure if Manila will let you use the time change function or not.

To access all settings, go the to Manila Settings tab and tap the softkey on the bottom right. That will get you into the traditional WM settings.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rank2:

It works almost perfectly now, but I've decided to make a ROM version based on the 6.5.x base and need to know if anyone has made a fix for the scroll bar issue using this dialer. If not, can/will anyone point me in the right direction as to how to fix this? Thanks!

Can be downloaded here

Try it out, it works pretty great and there are some sweet new screen transitions.

EzHero Only you guys. Sorry.

Just flash it over EzHero and your good to go.

If you would like to revert, just reflash the rom with no wipe.

Note- The clock will not be visible until you use Spare Parts to change its color.

After installing this theme, my phone keeps randomly rebooting. and i mean completely random. sometimes when opening a menu, application, widget, change a setting, switch home screen or whatever, the monitor either freezes for an extended period of time or suddenly reboots really fast. sometimes the reboot takes no longer than 10 sec totally, but the usual 30-60 secs is like waiting for ever!

JIT and compcache was on when i installed the theme, but disabling it doesnt seem to help. removed recently installed apps also failed. i reflashed back to EzHero 4.0 but the error is still there, so i flashed back to the theme again since its su much more awesome :D

is this something that can happen a lot? will reflashing help or will it be no use? i have tried all i can to reveiw the logs but they dont contain any errors except for small warnings here and there that is unrelated to the problem.

i really love the EzHero ROM, and with the theme it got perfect. please help me find a solution :(

Maybe Uninstaller, lookout, task killer, goaruna, bump?
[Android Apps and Games] klopinator:
I assume they don't ship yet with 2.1 - that you have to update that still?

If so, make sure he roots it and finds a better rom than the Sprint one.

I haven't kept up the last month or so, but I'm not sure if you can root the Hero once you update to 2.1
[Android Apps and Games] rogershroed1991:
If there's an official 2.1 rom why would you bother rooting it at all?
[Android Apps and Games] Dheus:
You root it for not use the official 2.1, but using a custom-rom, and having more benefits.

But the point of the thread is "what apps". Well, below is my list. The base of any Android that i use (used).

- Task Manager: ES Task Manager, Advanced Task Manager (has uninstaller included).

- Some toggles for switching between 2g and 3g and for turning data off.

- IM apps, like Nimbuzz or ebuddy, if he uses such things of course.

- A Notes app, best i've tried is "Notes" from Yuli.

- A file manager: Linda or Astro, but Linda is faster.

- SysTray Monitor, for monitoring battery level or ram amount etc.

- Audio Manager, a simple widget to monitor system sounds intensity.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlinespending:
I am sort of new to Android, and I was a bit disappointed with the physics (I guess you can call it that) of the scrolling motion. It's not nearly as fluid as I've used on an iPhone or Palm Pre. When you flick and move or pan a window or menu up and down and it doesn't do it in a very natural, fluid movement. It seems to jump around and almost appears to accelerate to its final point and then abruptly stop as opposed to more gradually decelerating to its final point. Is this something I just need to get used to and something that affects all Android phones? I have to say though, that I'm not a fan and I think they need to improve on this. Hopefully someone can offer me a fix for this. Thank you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlinespending:
and I don't think this is a performance issue or a problem with the 30fps cap. even when scrolling in a simple menu with no apps running it behaves like this. I think this is a fundamental problem in the way the folks at Google have coded the scrolling kinetic engine or physics engine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qteezyfosheezy:
I know exactly what you mean.. and it actually has to do with the android platform.. Ive had 3 Android phones (Motorola cliq, HTC hero, and now EVO) and all three have had the same kind of jerkiness (not very smooth scrolling) as youve mentioned..

Even though i love the android OS much better... It doesn't have the same smoothness and natural scrolling as others.
