[myTouch 3G, Magic General] razor813:
hi guys. Need your help here. I have a magic 32b vodafone australia. Since having it, i have been flashing different custom roms found here on my devices. All I need to do was to fastboot on pc with amon recovery and wipe/flash the rom. I managed to flash and run the roms successfully. However after i few tweaks, i realized those roms was too much battery hunger, and decide to switch back to stocks 1.5. Here come the problems: I flashed the amon recovery image to devices with droid explorer (so i dont have to use fastboot cmd on windows anymore), the phone ask to install new official update donut 1.6, but when it restart to recovery image platform, it say wrong signature and wont let me update. I flashed the google ION 1.6 but it seems slow and does not come with Vodafone audio parameters. I really want the official vodafone 1.6 donut back.

How do i update to official firmware? it seems like i lost the originial recovery image because flashed amon recovery, do i have to reflash the original to gain signature? i tried restore with nandroid but no help.

Please help me. I appreciate any support. Thanks in advance

YOurs sincerely,
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] razor813:
no help? please... i know you guys are great. there are so many reply and this thread has been pushed to page 2, how come there are no answer :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheForgotten:
Best bet would do just do alot of searching on here and someother android forums for a vanilla build of 1.6 that would be good for you and is compatible. Do you still want to be able to access a recovery image? or nothing like a stock htc phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] razor813:
thankx for reply dude. however i have some battery issues with custom roms here. The phone always being out of battery so fast. I want the official rom upgrade. I suspect the issue lie in flashing stock recovery image with amon's one, so it does not let me upgrade. HOw do i get back the original?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
Try this ROM, it's the official 1.6 ROM for the Google ION (which is the 32B Magic pre unlocked and flashed with engSPL). The ROM is standard 1.6 by Google, which nothing extra added, so you should be very good battery life.

Go to this

page and find just the 1.6 ROM (signed-google_ion-img-14721.zip), I doubt you'll need that radio.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] razor813:
hey guys, i really want to have that official roms back. The google ION image seems slow, and does not come with vodafone audio parameters. How do i update to official vodafone 1.6? i.e has anyone have the original recovery image of vodafone 32b?

thx
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidSolstice:
I've got a friend who's still on 1.6 who's looking to get himself rooted/Custom ROMed. Problem is, I'm not sure yet (havent' gotten a chance to talk to him) if his PRI is 1.73 or the new 2.20. I ask because the ROM I want to give him requires 2.20 for MMS.

Would flashing the official Sprint RUU (the *.5 one, the one that still has the root exploit) update his PRI?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
i had to update to the new .6 to get the 220 pri. then i ran the .5 and rooted.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidSolstice:
Alright. Good to know. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Burst_:
I was reading up on some threads about rosie and I came across an archived thread that told about remapping the buttons so that "phone" was on the left, open and close the app drawer was center, and right was I think contacts. (Preferably I would have had Browser but whatevs...)

Is something like this possible in regards to modding our own rosie to do this?

I know there are countless home replacements out there that do this but I was wondering if it is kinda the same.
[EVO 4G General] krizno:
I was curios to know what too guys enjoy about your nand being unlocked on your evo (if you've done so of course) I like getting rid of the stock apps and being able to boot in recovery and flash a rom on the go so tell me what all you think
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
Can you unlock nand without root. And after the last ota update can it be unlocked
[EVO 4G General] Jykinturah:
NAND unlock is full root. Full root lets you flash custom recoveries, etc.

NAND unlock IS root. It is the achieving of FULL root. Before NAND unlock we only had a PARTIAL root. If you are full stock, you cannot root the latest OTA. If you are rooted and have the latest OTA, you can NAND unlock.
[EVO 4G General] krizno:
I notice a lot of people ask that ha ha no root or full root with new update I'm sure there working on it so maybe soon you never know
[EVO 4G General] bluehaze:
Don't really need the NAND, I prefer to keep the phone as close to stock as possible so that everything works. I actually prefer an Unrevoked type of root (The first one) as it leaves the phone as close to stock as possible and allowed us to use wifi tether and still remove apps through recovery. It seems those days are long gone though :/
[EVO 4G General] willy900wonka:
I think I like the fact that it's my phone. If they want to protect me from me, then I should still have a choice. A simple non adb choice. The hero was a lot more elegant inside and had less resources to draw from. So what do I like about NAND being unlocked? I like the fact that it's my option.
[EVO 4G General] krizno:
Totally true I live options
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sergioosvaldo1:
Ok so i rooted my phone with the new technique where you don't unlock the bootloader

Ok so i decided i didn't wanted root anymore so i research and saw the passimg file so i thought you could do the same as the mytouch just intall that file so i went up and do it

And i then tried and install the manual update but at the top it said e:can't open /cache/recovery/command and clicked on the update.zip file ams it had an error

I don't know what to do!!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmagruder:
All,

I know there have been a bunch of threads about market errors and how they've been solved. There's been the vendor_preferences.xml solution, the wipe everything solution, the infamous "log in with a new gmail account" solution, etc.

However, my concern is that I am wondering if I'm the only one out there with this specific problem: SERVER ERROR ON DOWNLOADS PAGE OF MARKET. (and it's not intermittent...it's every time all the time).

I was able to solve the problem with not being able to install apps, and the infinite "computing..." error in Manage Applications, by just backing up my Sd card and reformatting it. I Think the .asec files in the sdcard from 'pre-release' Froyo builds were messing up the attempts to load and compute applications. With a clean SD card I am now able to download and install apps with no issues. I'm also now running FRF91 rooted.

What I have NO solution for is the Server Error on the Downloads page, and I'm just wondering if anyone else is experiencing THIS SPECIFIC Problem. Because none of the other market 'fixes' I've seen have solved it, and after trying every ROM from 2.1 through Froyo, rooted and unrooted, xml files, build.prop fixes, wipes of every kind and doing so in various orders, different gmail accounts, etc, I have come to the conclusion that it MUST be a Google error with my account, as the Downloads page comes up JUST FINE with a freshly created gmail account on the same ROM, but not with my primary Google account.

If anyone has been experiencing THIS SPECIFIC problem and has seen it go away on its own, or has fixed it themselves by some miracle of tweaking, please let me know. Google doesn't seem to be answering questions these days in the Market support thread, and I am looking for any evidence at all this is a fixable problem on OUR end, vs. waiting for a Google server-side miracle.

Thanks in advance,

Randy
[Streak 5 General] flumps:
anyone actually got their dell streak from cpw unlocked?

i keep reading conflicting reports as it seems that cpw only do the steak locked to o2. considering its a min 2week wait ordering direct from dell i would like to walk into a cpw store and buy one. ive called up a couple of stores local to me and they dont seem to know if the handset they stock is really sim free or not
[Streak 5 General] elbowz:
I tried one in CPW Ormskirk today and confirm that it was SIM-locked to O2... sorry.
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
I ordered one over the phone and was told it was definitely unlocked when it came it was locked lying git's so i sent it back ordered one from dell waiting for delivery
[Streak 5 General] flumps:
thats a right pain in the a$$! cpw employees need to be trained better it seems. thanks for the heads up
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hotrock11:
Quick story:

I bought it off dell.com like 2 years ago. I saw there was an update for it, so I went on HTC's website and put in my S/N. It said it didn't recognize it. I tried returning it to dell, but it was after the 15 day return period. So, I got screwed...and out of frustration I just cut my losses, forgot to put it on ebay, and threw it in the closet.

What should I do? I'm thinking about just installing a custom rom on it and throwing it to a friend but there are too many....any recommendations on what my next step should be?

Oh yea, to note, this is the GSM version of the HTC Touch Diamond. I've seen roms for the CDMA version...but not the GSM
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] thangkls:
I have a same issue but I always use custom rom therefore I don't care about it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] iknighty:
Is it a branded diamond?

The HTC site doesn't allow you to update branded Diamonds. For example, it doesn't recognize the S/N for my O2 branded Diamond.

Just put in a custom rom, they're much better than the official ones albeit more prone to bugs. Try different roms to see which you like best. Don't forget the flash the HARD SPL first.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mugglesquop:
normal ROMs are for GSM, if it says CDMA, then its for the CDMA.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] geryface:
Hi guys

I head the same problem during a support.

It is surely due to the fact that the mobile is "branded".

hey everybody,

just got my brand new cardock and played a bit with the 2.2 brand new car home..

It's pretty cool and easy to use but there's something that can make it maybe even better : what about those empty spots on the "second" page? You've got maps, settings, brightness and then 3 empties...

I'm wondering if there's any dev out there willing to mod the app and try to get those empty spots customizable;

What if we could set a direct sms , or direct call, or custom app launch on one of those empty spots? Maybe even better if we could have more than 2 pages...

This is just an idea, but I hoestly don't have the needed tech skilss to make this happen so... anybody willing to contribute/help/make the dream come true? :D

Everybody's contribution is well appreciated ;)

Has anyone dug into the code and see if the carhome has shortcut intents?

Since there's no way to actually modifiy from the UI, I think that's how google may have coded it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Prof-KOS:
This is a great idea for a mod. I've used the Car Dock V.2 app in the past, but went back to the stock Car Home. I have zero skill in coding, but I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler to create a car home app that retains the look of the Google app, but with some similar functionality to Car Dock V.2 (long press icons to add shortcut, change icon, etc... and add maybe add extra screens). I don't know about the rest of you, but the Exit Car home annoys me too. I much preferred it in 2.1 when you could go into the standard launcher, but the home key would take you back to the car home. Just a couple of thoughts.

I know this is my first post, but I really think the car app is one of those where the stock app, just misses the boat.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] moskuito:
So, glad to see some of you feel the same needing of a better car dock app...

I really hoped holiday time could bring a dev/coder to take a look at this thread, but it seems like some more advertising is indeed needed!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] crachel:
Looks like Car Home is proprietary Google software like GMail. I couldn't find any source and/or the ability to use shortcut intents

Prof-KOS is probably right, would be easier just to make a look alike
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] arkavat:
I think Google did a very disappointing job on with car dock in froyo

I'm new to sprint so i'm not sure how all of their exchanges and returns work.

I purchased my EVO from a corp store, and if I want to exchange it because the screen is sunken in on the bottom left and the battery cover doesn't seem to fit properly, will I be given a new one or a refurbished one? and will it have the new update on it that prevents rooting? I am still on my 30 day trial so Im assuming that since I paid for a BRAND NEW EVO that that's what I should get since they sold me a defected one.

Also, if I just want to return my phone and save my contract upgrade, will I be charged a restocking fee even though the phone is "defected"
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbedward:
Brand new one within 30 days (assuming it's not damaged and is a phone defect, otherwise go insurance). Go to the store, if they tell you no or try to give you a refurbished one - dial #2 on your phone and get connected to sprint tech support and explain your situation. They'll transfer you to someone else who will probably be able to get in contact with the store.

Happened to me ^^ ;), but i got a brand new one same day i called sprint support and said they tried to give me a refurb.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlee0921:
regardless of how long it's been, if it's something wrong with a phone, you CAN get a new, not refurb'd, one.

during my first year with sprint, i went through 8 bb curves. i asked for a replacement and they sent me a refurb. called and asked for a brand new one since the refurb had the same problem as my new one. this kept happening for 8 units. new or refurb'd.

however, after your 3rd replacement within 3 months will require you to get it approved by a tech store to get a replacement.
